103. On Two Page-Boys -

What Leda in another swan's embrace
Bore you these pages twain so like in face?
In Hierus a Pollux we behold,
Asylus wears the mien of Castor bold,
And both have Helen's beauty. Had they been
In Sparta when small gifts made Venus queen,
Paris had cried — " No Tyndaris I need:
I choose instead this double Ganymede."
