Thomas Starling Norgate
2 quotes
“I, all dying on the ground, Lifted and threw my hands to clutch my sword; But she, that hound-faced one, was gone; nor had she The heart to set my mouth together for me, Or with her hands to close mine eyes, though going To Hadès as I was.”

“The travelled Man of many a turn,—driven far, Far wandering, when he had sacked Troy's sacred Town; Tell me, O Muse, his tale: how too he conned The manners of mankind, and visited Full many a City, and how on the deep he suffered Many a heart-pang, striving to secure His own and comrades' lives and safe return. Yet them he rescued not, howe'er desirous; For by their own blind folly they all perished: Fools that they were! to eat the Sun-god's herds: So, Hyperion, he who Walks above, Bereft them of their day of home-return! Whereof, from whatsoever source, O goddess, Daughter of Zeus, vouchsafe to tell e'en Us!”
