Homeward at evening through the drifted snow
The cows plod back to shelter from the hill
But ah, the long strange sleep
Of the cow-herd Therimachos lying beneath the oak,
Struck still, still, by the fire that falls from heaven!
– from the Greek Anthology, translated by Dudley Fitts
Homing at dusk – the snow falls on them – cattle
Drift by themselves into the shed.
Look, still beside the oak Therimachos sleeps
The long sleep: laid to rest by fire from heaven.
– from the Greek Anthology, translated by Alistair Elliot
