Quote | “Actaeon is sitting in the shrubbery at the source in a forest Covertly contemplating bathing nude Diana […] The light from Goddess illuminates dark thicket. Though Diana is not happy about the sneaking stare […] So she lets down dense curls on her wet body, Her sorcery turns Actaeon into a horny deer And she turns on him the pack of her dogs Now it’s Diana who is contemplating the torture of the deer And the dense thickets of the Ida mountains Lament the death of Actaeon”. (pg. 32) |
