As once we saw the children of the Earth
Pile peak on peak to scale the starry sky,
And fight against the very gods on high,
While Jove to his lightning-bolts gave birth:
Then all in thunder, suddenly reversed,
The furious squadrons earthbound lie,
Heaven glorying, while Earth must sigh,
Jove gaining all the honour and the worth:
So were once seen, in this mortal space,
Rome's Seven Hills raising a haughty face,
Against the very
countenance
of Heaven:
While now we see the fields, shorn of honour,
Lament their ruin, and the gods secure,
Dreading no more, on high, that fearful leaven.

not so — 'tis good also to learn from those who speak aright.

Appolonius Rhodius - Argonautica |

--It cannot be--
Too many tears for lovers have been shed, 90
Too many sighs give we to them in fee,
Too much of pity after they are dead,
Too many doleful stories do we see,
Whose matter in bright gold were best be read;
Except in such a page where Theseus' spouse
Over the
pathless
waves towards him bows.

Only a Christianity that was metaphysized and inflated into sacral folklore of power could imagine that the
tradition
of the mar- tyrs, the saints, and the fathers of theology adds up to evidence upon which the individual believer can look back just as calmly as the philosopher can upon his inner archetypes.

The windel-straw nor grass so shook and trembled;
As the good and gallant stripling shook and trembled;
A linen shirt so fine his frame invested,
O'er the shirt was drawn a bright pelisse of scarlet
The sleeves of that pelisse depended backward,
The lappets of its front were button'd backward,
And were spotted with the blood of unbelievers;
See the good and gallant stripling reeling goeth,
From his
eyeballs
hot and briny tears distilling;
On his bended bow his figure he supporteth,
Till his bended bow has lost its goodly gilding;
Not a single soul the stripling good encounter'd,
Till encounter'd he the mother dear who bore him:
O my boy, O my treasure, and my darling!
