κ' επείσμοναν δεν ήθελαν ποσώς να μ' απατήσουν•
κ' εκείθε παραδέρνοντας εφθάσαμ' εδώ νύκτα•
λάμνοντας προχωρήσαμε με κόπο 'ς τον λιμένα•
για δείπνο δεν εφρόντισε κανείς, αν κ' ήταν χρεία, 280
αλλ' απ' το πλοίο βγήκαμε και αυτού πλαγιάσαμ' όλοι•

always rest inside the nest, building and
managing
its indoor
arrangements.

That dreads the dances, and that shuns the salads,
They doom to pass in

Writing acrostic-ballads.

Our

The various pow'rs displayed, and wonders done;
Yet scarcely had she on the knight begun,
And mentioned what he wished her to unfold,
But Argia could her rage no longer hold;
A fellow!

Nietzsche - v17 - Ecce Homo |

To ask or search I blame thee not, for Heav'n
Is as the Book of God before thee set,
Wherein to read his wondrous Works, and learne
His Seasons, Hours, or Days, or Months, or Yeares:
This to attain, whether Heav'n move or Earth, 70
Imports not, if thou reck'n right, the rest
From Man or Angel the great Architect
Did wisely to conceal, and not divulge
His secrets to be scann'd by them who ought
Rather admire; or if they list to try
Conjecture, he his Fabric of the Heav'ns
Hath left to thir disputes, perhaps to move
His laughter at thir quaint Opinions wide
Hereafter, when they come to model Heav'n
And calculate the Starrs, how they will weild 80
The mightie frame, how build, unbuild, contrive
To save appeerances, how gird the Sphear
With Centric and Eccentric scribl'd o're,
Cycle and Epicycle, Orb in Orb:
Alreadie by thy reasoning this I guess,
Who art to lead thy ofspring, and supposest
That Bodies bright and greater should not serve
The less not bright, nor Heav'n such journies run,
Earth sitting still, when she alone receaves
The benefit: consider first, that Great 90
Or Bright inferrs not Excellence: the Earth
Though, in
comparison
of Heav'n, so small,
Nor glistering, may of solid good containe
More plenty then the Sun that barren shines,
Whose vertue on it self workes no effect,
But in the fruitful Earth; there first receavd
His beams, unactive else, thir vigor find.
