    Annotations

    THE TABLE OF THE FOURTH BOOK

    1 A shady silence fills

    2 The iris was yellow, the moon was pale

    3 In winter, afternoons are short

    4 A valley of oak-trees

    5 She was a royal lady born

    6 Leda was weary of her state, the crown was weary on her head

    7 Ah, how beautiful is youth

    • A shady silence fills
    • The iris was yellow, the moon was pale
    • In winter, afternoons are short
    • A valley of oak-trees
    • She was a royal lady born
    • Leda was wearied of her state, the crown was heavy on her head
    • Ah, how beautiful is youth
