The Poetical Works of James Beattie

Book 2 — ANACREON. ODE XXII.

Reading edition

Παρὰ τὴν σκίην, βάϑυλλε, Κάϑισον · ——

Bathyllus, in yonder lone grove All carelessly let us recline: To shade us the branches above Their leaf-waving tendrils combine; While a streamlet inviting repose Soft murmuring wanders away, And gales warble wild through the boughs: Who there would not pass the sweet day?

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
