(Alexander Pushkin) — A Nereid

Among the glaucous waves that kiss gold Tauris’ beaches I saw a Nereid, as dawn flushed heaven’s reaches. I barely dared to breathe, hid in the olive trees, While the young demigoddess rose above the seas; Her young, her swan-white breast above the waters lifting, From her soft hair she wrung the foam in garlands drifting.
