XXXVIII.

Name: Helen of Troy - 38
Author: Andrew Lang

But slowly Paris raised him from the earth,
And read her face, and knew that she knew all,
No more her eyes, in tenderness or mirth,
Should answer his, in bower or in hall.
Nay, Love had fallen when his child did fall,
The stream Love cannot cross ran ’twixt them red;
No more was Helen his, whate’er befall,
Not though the Goddess drove her to his bed.
