Sappho

XXVI

Reading edition

I recall thy white gown, cinctured With a linen belt, whereon Violets were wrought, and scented With strange perfumes out of Egypt.

And I know thy foot was covered 5 With fair Lydian broidered straps; And the petals from a rose-tree Fell within the marble basin.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
