Helen of Troy - Tapa blanda

Helen of Troy is a epic historical poem by Andrew Lang about the Queen of Sparta, Helen of Troy. All day within the palace of the King In Lacedaemon, was there revelry, Since Menelaus with the dawn did spring Forth from his carven couch, and, climbing high The tower of outlook, gazed along the dry White road that runs to Pylos through the plain, And mark'd thin clouds of dust against the sky, And gleaming bronze, and robes of purple stain.
