from WHERE SHALL WISDOM BE FOUND?

Will they ever come to me, ever again,
The long long dances,
On through the dark till the dawn-stars wane?
Shall I feel the dew on my throat, and the stream
Of wind in my hair? Shall our white feet gleam
In the dim expanses?
-Euripides (from the Bacchae)
trs.by Gilbert Murray
