Poetic-Verses from ATHANASE

Torments (English)

Torment

 

I envy Eyndius's poems in his Hydropyricon;

how can he make flowing water and burning fire meet in one embrace?

Spirits, I need your help: make my song so sweet,

my verses of such beauty that they'll outlast the soul of Endymion!

 

translated from the French of Athanase Vantchev de Thracy by Norton Hodges
