“Wine can of their wits the wise beguile, Make the sage frolic, and the serious smile”
Homér The Odyssey (Cowper)
XIV. 463–466 (tr. Alexander Pope).
Odyssey (c. 725 BC)
Kontext: Tis sweet to play the fool in time and place,
And wine can of their wits the wise beguile,
Make the sage frolic, and the serious smile,
The grave in merry measures frisk about,
And many a long-repented word bring out.
“Even his griefs are a joy long after to one that remembers all that he wrought and endured.”
Homér The Odyssey (Cowper)

“down from his brow
she ran his curls
like thick hyacinth clusters
full of blooms”

Homér Iliad
VI. 146–149 (tr. R. Lattimore); Glaucus to Diomed.
Alexander Pope's translation:
: Like leaves on trees the race of man is found,
Now green in youth, now withering on the ground:
Another race the following spring supplies,
They fall successive, and successive rise:
So generations in their course decay;
So flourish these, when those are past away.
Iliad (c. 750 BC)
