The Return of Tibullus to Delia |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
English: Rossetti depicts the passage in Tibullus (Elegies, I, 3, 82-92) when Tibullus bids to his mistress to await his return: 'Live chaste, dear love; and while I'm far away, Be some old dame thy guardian night and day. She'll sing thee songs, and when the lamp is lit, Fly the full rock and draw long threads from it, So, unannouced, shall I come suddenly, As 'twere a presence sent from heaven to thee. Then as thou art, all long and loose they hair, Run to me, Delia, run with thy feet bare.' Français : Rossetti s'inspire du passage des Elégies de Tibulle (I, 3, 82-92) dans lequel Tibulle demande à sa maîtresse d'attendre son retour (traduction de C. L. Mollevaut, 1808) :
Ma Délie, à jamais conserve-moi ton cœur ; |
