Excerpt from Anacreon

Horns to bulls wise Nature lends; Horses she with hoofs defends; Hares with nimble feet relieves Dreadful teeth to lions gives; Fishes learns through streams to slide; Birds through yielding air to glide Men with courage she supplies But to women these denies.

What then gives she? Beauty, this Both their arms and armour is.
