Note 94 — Chapter X · THE LYRIC POETS.
Reading edition
Carm., i. 32, thus translated by Conington:
Thou, strung by Lesbos' minstrel hand, The bard who 'mid the clash of steel, Or haply mooring to the strand, His battered keel, Of Bacchus and the Muses sung, And Cupid, still at Venus' side, And Lycus, beautiful and young, Dark-haired, dark-eyed.
