In spring the quince treesripen in the girls' holy orchardwith river waters;and grapes turn violetunder the shade of luxuriant leafage and newborn shoots.But for me, Eros knows no winter sleep, and as north windsburn down from Thracewith searing lighting,Kypris mutilates my heart with blackand baleful love.
