IX. 62 198 AND OF ART MYCENAE IN RUINS Mycenae, desolate and sunk to dust, I lie as barren as the mountain side.Yet down I trod proud Ilions walls, and thrust The house of Priam forth from all its pride.So mighty then! Now let time spend his rage—Enough for me the proof of Homers page. A VOICE FROM MYCENAE I was the golden town, within whose wall Dwelt Atreus sons, of heavens own lineage hailed;Victor of god-built Troy; the Royal Hall Of heroes, and their fortress unassailed.Now, on my site where oxen graze and sheep. Of all my greatness but the name I store.O well avenged is Ilion if she keep Her being, while Mycenae is no more. TROY IN RUINS Here I, renowned and hallowed Ilion, toweredAnd walls embattled reared their lofty crest: In Homer now, when time hath all devoured.With brazen gates and bulwarks fenced I rest. No more by arms of Greece in ruin flung. Henceforth I live on every Grecian tongue. 199 POEMS ON DEATH
