from The Second Olympique Ode of Pindar
Soft-footed Winds with tuneful voyces there
Dance through the perfum'd Aire.
There Silver Rivers through enameld Meadows glide,
And golden Trees enrich their side.
Th' illustrious Leaves no dropping Autumn fear,
And Jewels for their fruit they bear,
Which by the Blest are gathered
For Bracelets to the Arm, and Guirlands to the Head.
Here all the Hero's, and their Poets live,
Wise Rhadamanthus did the Sentence give,
Who for his justice was thought fit
With Soveraign Saturn on the Bench to sit.
Peleus here, and Cadmus reign,
Here great Achilles wrathful now no more,
Since his blest Mother (who before
Had try'ed it on his Body in vain)
Dipt now his Soul in Stygian Lake,
Which did from thence a divine Hardness take,
That does from Passion and from Vice Invulnerable make.
– Pindar (518-446 BC), translated by Abraham Cowley (1656)
