222 And strong affection move thy heart

To grant of all an equal part,

Beneath the earth thy half breath draw,

And by the same impartial law,

Half in the golden domes of heaven."

'Twas thus the immortal father spoke;

Nor could weak doubts his mind provoke

To slight the generous offer given.

The god anew the eye and voice unbound

Of Castor, with his brazen helmet crown'd.
