EDWARD J. O’BRIEN

I.

The scent of mint on the sandy grave of Nicias
Crieth unto the wanderer
For remembrance.

II.

Here in the arms of the harvest
Lieth the gleaner, Bion,
Whose sickle shineth above him in the evening.

III.

Far from tides and sand
On the slope of Cithaeron
Resteth Eumenes
In the purple distance.
His fellow tunny-fishers erect this stone.
