SHOULD I BE SINGING THEIR PRAISES AS GALLUS?

Mayhap I should follow

those priests of Cybele

Catullus wrote of, and

find myself a stone

blade, not too sharp,

and get to work,

dedicating myself

to her and Attis.

What withers and falls

as the autumn bites

will feel the touch of

Cybele and revive

with the spring,

youthful Attis again

wandering the blooming

Phrygian hills.
