Athens
 
Ancient of days! august Athena! where,
Where are thy men of might? thy grand in soul?
Gone—glimmering through the dream of things that were;
First in the race that led to glory’s goal,
They won, and pass’d away—Is this the whole?
        Byron—Childe Harold. Canto II. St. 2.		  1
Athens, the eye of Greece, mother of arts
And eloquence.
        Milton—Paradise Regained. Bk. IV. L. 240.		  2
