Note 19 — Chapter XV · THE FRAGMENTS OF ÆSCHYLUS, SOPHOCLES, AND EURIPIDES.
Reading edition
Love throbs in holy heaven to wound the earth; And love still prompts the land to yearn for bridals; The rain that falls in rivers from the sky, Impregnates earth, and she brings forth for men The flocks and herds and life of teeming Ceres; The bloom of forests by dews hymeneal Is perfected: in all which things I rule.
