Bellerophon
Contexto: Doth some one say that there be gods above?
There are not; no, there are not. Let no fool,
Led by the old false fable, thus deceive you.

No undue credence: for I say that kings
Kill, rob, break oaths, lay cities waste by fraud,
And doing thus are happier than those
Who live calm pious lives day after day. All divinity
Is built-up from our good and evil luck.

with which to move the Dark Maid and her Lord,
I'd call you back, dear love, from the world below.”

Is that which rages in the place of dearest love.”
