Midway between the earth and

For neither took them, since they weighed too little
To sink and settle, but too much to glide
Along the upmost shores; and yet they are
In such a wise midway between the twain
As ever to whirl their living bodies round,

In the same fashion as certain members may

representation: as early as
Aeschylus’s
play The Persians the Orient is transformed from a very
