Where are your fabulous Doric beauty, the fringe
of your towers, Corinth, your ancient properties –
the temples of gods, the homes, the Sisyphean
women, and your once countless inhabitants?

There is no trace of you left.  Doomed city,
war crushed and gorged everything.

We alone, the Ocean's Nereids, remain
unravished – halcyons, sole tenants of your affliction.

– from the Greek Anthology, translated by Peter Jay
