         The Judgement of Paris

 

             How could he know?.

 

             That on his choice

       Hung, epical, the futures of

          His family, his natalTroy

And its then fortunate inhabitants?.

 

That Agamemnon with his Grecian horde

     Would alter history because

     Æneas, who escaped their wrath,

Would found avengingRomethat annexedGreece?.

 

AllParisknew was wonder at the sight

     Of threefold beauty bared for him;

And which should win the precious prize

               Each coveted!.

 

                He was no god.
