In Cnidus born, the consort I became <br />Of Euphron. Aretimias was my name. <br />His bed I shared, nor proved a barren bride, <br />But bore two children at a birth, and died. <br />One child I leave to solace and uphold <br />Euphron hereafter, when infirm and old <br />And one, for his remembrance' sake, I bear <br />To Pluto's realm, till he shall join me there.<br /><br />William Cowper<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/by-heraclides/
