PRIZE TRANSLATION. Anacreontea. NE night the Wagoner had turned The wain across the sky, and oier The earth man. lay in slumber earned By toil, when Love stopped at my door And tried the bolt. Who knocks? I cried, Thou drivestthus my dreams away. 'Tis but a babe --then Love replied, Fear not, and open now, I pray, The door for I am drenched: the night Is dark,-I've wandered far. And when I heard I pitied him. A light I kindled, let him in, and then A babe with quiver and a bow I saw, and he had wings. Beside The fire I made him sit and so With rubbing then his hands I tried To warm them in my own. The storm Had left the water in his hair A-drip-I squeezed it dry. When warm He was at length, with sitting there He said: Come, let us try my bow- Perchance the wet has hurt the string. He drew and let' the arrow go Right to my breast with piercing sting And cried: Come, friend, rejoice with meg My bow is still unharmed by rain, But thou art hurt - he danced with glee And laughed: Thy heart shall know the pain.
