Selene

"Muse of sweet eloquence, of Jupiter daughters, teachers | of hymns. Beautiful moon sung by swift wings. | From her comes heavenly glow to envelop the earth, | from his immortal head, from the bright rays, he pours out | Supreme Beauty: A Glowing Aura | from the golden crown, rays are scattered through the air, | When from the eddies of the sea, wash your shining limbs, | girded with her garments, Selène, who drives her gaze afar, | his foals yok from the steep cervix, radiant, | in vespers, at half a month, that his disc shines fullly; | And as she grows, bright rays are shed | from the firmament; and it is for mortals a signal and an omen. | Once, in her bed of love, she was joined by Croníde, | and she became pregnant and gave birth to Pandía, the maiden | who has, among the Blessed of Heaven, so charming his countenance. || Hail, O Lady, O Goddess of the white arm, O Selene. | Diva with beautiful curls, | benign. Starting with you, | Of the Semigods I will tell the deeds, to which the vati are wont to do, | ministers of the Muses, to sing with the amiable voices."

"Νυκτερινή, δίκερως, φιλοπάννυχε, φαῖνε, Σελήνη, φαῖνε, δι᾽ εὐτρήτων βαλλομένη θυρίδων αὔγαζε χρυσέην Καλλίστιον ἐς τὰ φιλεύντων ἔργα κατοπτεύειν οὐ φθόνος ἀθανάτῃ. ὀλβίζεις καὶ τήνδε καὶ ἡμέας, οἶδα, Σελήνη: καὶ γὰρ σὴν ψυχὴν ἔφλεγεν Ἐνδυμίων."
