"High at the head of branching olive grows
And crowns the pointed cliffs with shady boughs,
Beneath a gloomy grott's cool recess.
Delight the Nereids of the neighboring seas;
Where bowls and urs were formed of living stone,
And massy beams in native marble shown;
On which the labors of the Nymphs were toll'd,
Their web divine of purple mixed with gold.
Within the cave the clust'ring bees attend
Their waxen works, or from the roof depend.
Perpetual waters o'er the pavement glide;
Two marble doors unfold on either side;
Sacred the south, by which the gods descend;
But mortals enter at the northern end."
Written by Homer "Nypheum"
