Eros and the Bull
by: Moschus (fl. 150 B.C.)
translated by M. J. Chapman
His torch and quiver down sly Eros flung,
An ox-goad took in hand, a wallet slung,
Then yoked strong bulls and made the plough to train,
And as he went the furrow sowed with grain.
And looking up he said to Zeus; 'Make full
The harvest, or I'll yoke Europa's bull.'
