Argia proved To Polynice more faithful than the loved (But false and covetous) Amphiaraus' wife.
The groans and sighs of those who lose their life By this kind lord, in unrelenting flames You hear: I cannot tell you half their names.
For they appear not only men that love, The gods themselves do fill this myrtle grove: You see fair Venus caught by Vulcan's art With angry Mars; Proserpina apart From Pluto, jealous Juno, yellow-hair'd Apollo, who the young god's courage dared: And of his trophies proud, laugh'd at the bow Which in Thessalia gave him such a blow.
What shall I say ?--here, in a word, are all The gods that Varro mentions, great and small; Each with innumerable bonds detain'd, And Jupiter before the chariot chain'd." ANNA HUME..
