Or shall we run with Artemis

Or yield the breast to Aphrodite?

Both are mighty;

Both give bliss;

Each can torture if divided;

Each claims worship undivided,

In her wake would have us wallow.

Youth must offer on bent knees

Homage unto one or other;

Earth, the mother,

This decrees;

And unto the pallid Scyther

Either points us shun we either

Shun or too devoutly follow.
