It is not otherwise
improbable that the palace of
Menelaus
should not be at Sparta; and if
it was not there, that Telemachus should say,
“for I am going to Sparta, and to Pylus,”[155]
for this seems to agree with the epithets applied to the country,[156]
unless indeed any one should allow this to be a poetical licence; for,
if Messenia was a part of Laconia, it would be a contradiction that
Messene should not be placed together with Laconia, or with Pylus,
(which was under the command of Nestor,) nor by itself in the Catalogue
of Ships, as though it had no part in the expedition.

If the rose-petals which have fallen upon my eyes And if the perfect faces which I see at times
When my eyes are closed
Faces fragile, pale, yet flushed a little, like petals of
roses :
If these things have
confused
my memories of her So that I could not draw her face
Even if I had skill and the colours,
Yet because her face is so like these things
They but draw me nearer unto her in my thought And thoughts of her come upon my mind gently, As dew upon the petals of roses.

| Question: |
Why did Galatea stop gazing sweetly on the speaker from the salt water and now sits on the desert sands to feed his herds? |
| Answer: |
The speakers in the passages, who are often the Muses of Sicily, lament the loss of the shepherd's music and song, which had the power to enchant nature and wildlife. The death of the shepherd has had a profound effect on the natural world, causing the trees to cast their fruit, the flowers to wither, and the milk from the ewes to cease flowing. Even the bees, who died in their hives, seem to have been affected by his passing. Galatea, who was once enchanted by the shepherd's song, now mourns him and sits on the desert sands feeding his herds. The passages also describe the mournful songs of other creatures, including nightingales, swallows, and doves, who lament the loss of the shepherd's song. The passages are characterized by a deep sense of grief and mourning over the shepherd's passing. |

Fire, nor slacker in his hours than she, rises from his soft couch to
the work of his smithy.

Pressed on the leader of the paynim band
Why he should not the appointed battle fight;
