Aphrodite Speaks, by Aeschylus

Aphrodite Speaks

The pure, bright heaven still yearns to blend with earth,
And earth is filled with love for marriage-rites,
And from the kindly sky the rain-shower falls
And fertilizes earth, and earth for men
Yields grass for sheep, and corn, Demeter's gift;
And from its wedlock with the South the fruit
Is ripened in its season; and of this,
All this, I am the cause accessory.
