The Homerides

________________________________________________
Title:     The Homerides
Author: Frederich Schiller [More Titles by Schiller]

Who is the bard of the Iliad among you? For since he likes puddings,
Heyne begs he'll accept these that from Gottingen come.
"Give them to me! The kings' quarrel I sang!"--
"I, the fight near the vessels!"--"Hand me the puddings!
I sang what upon Ida took place!"
Gently! Don't tear me to pieces! The puddings will not be sufficient;
He by whom they are sent destined them only for one.

[The end]
Frederich Schiller's poem: Homerides
