Classic Poem

A roman and a Greek our praise divide,
Nor can we yet who best deserv'd decide.
Behold two mightier conquerors appear,
Some for your wit, some for your eyes, declare:
Debates arise which captivates us most,
And none can tell the charm by which he's lost.
The bow and quiver does Diana bear,
Cybele the lions, Pallas has the spear:
Poets such emblems to their gods assign,
Hearts bleeding by the dart and pen be thine.
