The Fisherman's Tomb
by: Sappho (c. 610-570 B.C.)
translated by H. de Vere Stacpoole
|
|
|
Over the fisher Pelagon Meniscus his father set
The oar worn by the wave, the trap, and the fishing net;--
For all men, and for ever, memorials there to be
Of the luckless life of the fisher, the labourer of the sea.
