Rowland Smith translation
Compare the description of the Grotto of the Nymphs in Ithaca. Odys. B. xiii.
——"A pleasant cave Umbrageous, to the Nymphs devoted, nam'd The Naiads—Beakers in that cave and jars Of stone are found; bees lodge their honey there; And there on slender spindles of the rock The nymphs of rivers weave their wondrous robes, Perennial springs rise in it."—Cowper.
