“…Spouse of Iodmangan,

The son of Publius  Agrippa” (pg. 41)

“How Dionysus put his chin on the wine-press

When he got drunk” (Pg. 42)

“As Actaeon

I saw you in mulberry grove” (pg. 42)

“Antonius Pius’ curly beard and moustache

And Marcus Aurelius’ bald head

Are embroidered on the golden coin (pg. 42)  

“The death cloaked you

In the night’s Pallecart .

Now, you rustle your Chiton

Only in my dreams…” (pg. 43)
