 Catalogue Entry

Back away from that, [she said]
And steady on [                    ]

Wayward and wildly pounding heart,
There is a girl who lives among us
Who watches you with foolish eyes,

A slender, lovely, graceful girl,
Just budding into supple line,
And you scare her and make her shy...

Fragment of a Poem by Archilochus

Seventh century BCE, ca. 650
