Text Appearing Before Image:
commencements de la nation. Les dieux et les héros restent lespersonnages dun monde supérieur où la forme journalière de lavie humaine na que peude part. Sans doute ils sont posésavec force sur le sol, leursmembres robustes sont pré-parés pour laction et pourla victoire, Téquilibre de leurstature et la plénitude deleurs poitrines indiquent queleur vie est celle dune hu-manité vigoureuse, qui senourrit sobrement et quiexerce son activité: mais cesont des héros et des dieux.
