“Then, that no region of the universe
Should remain void of life, the floor of heaven
Was peopled with the stars and godlike forms,

Earth took the beasts and mobile air the birds.
A holier animal was wanting.”

O youth the cities have sent
to strike at each other’s strength,
it is you who have kept her alight.”
