“May my teaching drop like the rain, my speech condense like the dew; like gentle rain on grass, like showers on new growth.”

“The gods themselves,
Humbling their deities to love, have taken
The shapes of beasts upon them. Jupiter
Became a bull, and bellowed; the green Neptune
A ram, and bleated; and the fire-robed god,
Golden Apollo, a poor humble swain.”
