Hero and Leander
'Thus far she pleads, but pleading brought awaits her,
for death, her sullen burden danes no heed,
then will distant craving ... since darkness fails her,
she prays to heavens fair light as if her need
inspired her were gods to pity pain,
oh ended - but she lifts her arms in vain!'
