Gaia - moderskapets och Jordens gudinna i grekisk mytologi.

(The goddess of motherhood and Earth in greek mythology)

Gaias Modershus

"Poeten har sitt öga överallt,
han låter blicken svepa över jord och himmel,
och saker som hans fantasi har format, men ingen sett,
så att ett luftigt intet får namn och hemvist."
W Shakespeare, Midsommarnattsdröm

Hear, Ye Ladies

Hear, ye ladies that despise,
What the mighty Love has done;
Fear examples, and be wise:
Fair Callisto was a nun;

Leda, sailing on the stream
To deceive the hopes of man,
Love accounting but a dream,
Doted on a silver swan;

Danae, in a brazen tower,
Where no love was, loved a shower.

Hear, ye ladies that are coy,
What the mighty Love can do;
Fear the fierceness of the boy:
The chaste moon he makes to woo;

Vesta, kindling holy fires,
Circled round about with spies,
Never dreaming loose desires,
Doting at the altar dies;

Ilion, in a short hour, higher
He can build, and once more fire.
