"Know ye the land where the cypress and myrtle
Are emblems of deeds that are done in their clime,
Where the rage of the vulture, the love of the turtle,
Now melt into sorrow, now madded to crime?"
Author: Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron)
About: Greece
"Ancient of days! august Athena! where,
Where are thy men of might? thy grand in soul?
Gone–glimmering through the dream of things that were;
First in the race that led to glory's goal,
They won, and pass'd away–Is this the whole?"
Author: Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron)

Immortal, though no more; though fallen great!"

Where burning Sappho loved and sung.
Where grew the arts of war and peace,–
Where Delos rose, and Phoebus sprung!
Eternal summer gilds them yet,
But all, except their sun, is set."
Author: Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron)

'Tis Greece, but living Greece no more!
So coldly sweet, so deadly fair,
We start, for soul is wanting there."
