SAPHO<br />

Tes pas erreront faiblement sur la rive<br />

Des femmes sans fards et <strong>de</strong>s passants obscurs,<br />

LaMaison <strong>de</strong>s Morts sur ta forme plaintive<br />

Fermera ses murs.<br />

Sous l'azur et sous la pourpre <strong>de</strong> ses voiles,<br />

LaNuit cachera ton rire d'autrefois.<br />

Demain tu mourras d'une mort sans étoiles<br />

-~C&~<br />

Sous les linceuls froids.<br />

Thectoo the years shall cover; thou shalt bc<br />

Asthe rose born of one same blood with thee,<br />

Asa song sung, as a word sa!d, ~nd fa!t<br />

Ftower-wise, and not be any more at aiï,<br />

Nor any memory of thee anywhere;<br />

For never Muse has bound above thine hair<br />

The high Pierian flower who~e graft outgrows<br />

At)summer kinship of the mortat rose<br />

Andcolour of <strong>de</strong>ciJuous days, nor shed<br />

~eftex and flush of heaven about thine head,<br />
