METAMORPHOSES.

BOOK V.

Translated by

Arthur Maynwaring, Esq;

The Story of Perseus continued.

HILE Perseus entertain'd with this Report
His Father Cepheus, and the list'ning Court,
Within the Palace Walls was heard aloud
The roaring Noise of some unruly Crowd;
Not like the Songs which chearful Friends prepare
For nuptial Days, but Sounds that threaten'd War;

And
