| CIT_SALMACIS_OVIDM | ENT_SALMACIS | SRC_OVID_METAMORPHOSES | Ovid, Metamorphoses | Ovid, Metamorphoses | Then, indeed, Salmacis is astonished, and burns with desire for his naked beauty. The eyes, too, of the Nymph are on fire, no otherwise than as when the Sun, most brilliant with his clear orb, is reflected from the opposite image of a mirror. With difficulty does she endure delay; hardly does she now defer her joy. Now she longs to embrace him; and now, distracted, she can hardly contain herself. | Henry T.
