XI

This is the feast of Iacchus; open wide the gates, O Hierocleia;

Fill the kraters and kuathoi with sweet unmixed wine and snow; bring

thyrsus-wands,

And crowns of pale ivy and violets; let the flute-players begin the

phallic hymn

While the ten girl-slaves, drunken with the god, dance to the young men.
