DELOS, by PINDAR Poet's Biography First Line: Delian apollo, save! Last Line: And the glorious paeans ring. Subject(s): Delos (island), Greece | |||
DELIAN Apollo, save! Scattered islets breeding sheep Were their portion, and they keep Delos, which Apollo gave, Master golden-haired, that they On Asteria might stay. Delian Apollo, hail! Leto's Children, welcome me, Your attendant, graciously. Loudly let my song prevail, While the honeyed voices sing And the glorious paeans ring. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A SONG OF DELOS by FELICIA DOROTHEA HEMANS DELOS by RICHARD MONCKTON MILNES DELOS by PUBLIUS VERGILIUS MARO |
