"Nymphs, who from Ocean’s stream derive your birth, … holy, oblique, who swiftly soar thro’ air, fountains and dews, and mazy streams your care : .. earthly, rejoicing, who in meadows dwell,and caves and dens, .. and gentle course, thro’ flow’ry vales to glide ; …loud-sounding, mad, whom rocks and woods delight : Nymphs od’rous, rob’d in white whose streams exhale, the breeze refreshing, and the balmy gale ; nurses of fruits, unconcious of decay : in cold rejoicing, and to cattle kind, sportive thro’ ocean wand’ring unconfin’d : nysian, fanatic Nymphs, whom oaks delight, lovers of spring, paeonian virgins bright. " (Orphic Hymn 51, To the Nymphs)
