Yes – like this one, “To Pan”, from “Hesiod, the Homeric Hymns and Homerica, 1920”:

Only at evening, as he returns from the chase, he sounds his note, playing sweet and low on his pipes of reed: not even she could excel him in melody — that bird who in flower-laden spring pouring forth her lament utters honey-voiced song amid the leaves. At that hour the clear-voiced nymphs are with him and move with nimble feet, singing by some spring of dark water, while Echo wails about the mountain-top, and the god on this side or on that of the choirs, or at times sidling into the midst, plies it nimbly with his feet. On his back he wears a spotted lynx-pelt, and he delights in high-pitched songs in a soft meadow where crocuses and sweet-smelling hyacinths bloom at random in the grass.

There was another heatwave in Victoria, we were spared this time. After the last rain, there was a dry windy change, so after a few warm days had to soak the pots again! 🙁
Cool! The up and down keys got some movement in Doom, what gets the character in motion – the space/enter, or something else?
Jaffa the young Jack Russell, taken with the goat’s enthusiasm for carrots, has himself acquired the taste. Tonight he completely demolished a rather large and juicy carrot!
