THE NINE MUSES OF THE ARTS – EUTERPE (MUSE OF LYRICAL POETRY)


from the ABC set THE ANCIENT WORLD AND BEYOND

The nine muses
Daughters of Zeus
Inspiring of mortals
And nurturers of the arts
The fourth was,
The divine Euterpe,
Rejoicing well,
Was firstly the muse of music
Then of Lyrical poetry
A double flute in her hand
Euterpe the giver of delight
