59. On a Snake in Amber
A VIPER crept along a poplar bough,
When lo, the amber drops that therefrom flow
With clinging moisture stayed her on her way
And fettered by the gum congealed she lay.
Let Cleopatra boast no more her grave,
When tiny vipers such a burial have.
When lo, the amber drops that therefrom flow
With clinging moisture stayed her on her way
And fettered by the gum congealed she lay.
Let Cleopatra boast no more her grave,
When tiny vipers such a burial have.
