Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - The New Amor
Work rating: Low

AMOR, not the child, the youthful lover of Psyche,
Look`d round Olympus one day, boldly, to triumph inured;
There  he espied a goddess, the fairest amongst the immortals,—
Venus Urania she,—straight was his passion inflamed.
Even the holy one powerless proved, alas! `gainst his wooing,—
Tightly embraced in his arm, held her the daring one fast.
Then from their union arose a new, a more beauteous Amor,
Who from his father his wit, grace from his mother derives.
Ever thou`lt find him join`d in the kindly Muses` communion,
And his charm-laden bolt foundeth the love of the arts.
