Text size

This horror will grow mild, this darkness light.

SOPHOC. AJAX. 397.

Ιω σκοτος εμον φαος·
Ερεβος ω φαεννοτατον.

Book III. v. 39.

As the wakeful bird
Sings darkling, and in shadiest covert hid
Tunes her nocturnal note—

MOSCHUS. Id. III. 9.

Αδονες αἱ πυκινοισιν οδυρομεναι ποτι φυλλοις.
