Enter Poem or Quote (Required)Required When drifting water of the river Hebrus murmurs a heartrending cry surges from the bottom of the river, and when this cry reaches the midsummer night’s sky the stars echo and a lyre in the constellation by Zeus’ throne plays sad music. And when tone adds pathos to deepen the darkness, a nocturnal bird soars in the dark air, too, singing a sad song over a grave in Libethra. The reason the river weeps with a plaintive requiem is, not because Erebus is too far or Styx is too wide, but the stern ferryman denies Orpheus’ passage to netherworld where he once passed with the crowds of the dead. Although he once made the Furies cheeks wet with tears, won a Proserpine’s sympathy and made Hades himself gave way, why Orpheus has to cry a heartrending cry over Eurydice again with his plaintive tuned lyre and song of touching story of his beloved wife? It’s because he couldn’t cross Styx for second time. He cried through the weeks of sleepless nights, regretting why he turned his face back to assure Eurydice followed, and therefore, heard her last cry of farewell. He called Eurydice’s name for the weeks of agonizing days and nights without food stretching his arms in air as if trying to hold her, though she is not there. Since his second farewell to his beloved wife on the dark and steep passage of Erebus, Orpheus played his lyre and sang sad songs unceasingly. He sang to tell his regretful experience on the way to this world at Erebus to the rocks with melancholic but touching tunes, he chanted an account of the tragic life he underwent with a gloomy but moving sound to the trees. A viper, therefore, struck Eurydice with its sharp fangs again, a horror that of the Maenads’ desire to capture Orpheus tore him limb from limb. And when the river murmurs, Orpheus’ limbs fell in water parted from his body call to one another wishing to come in one again, Orpheus’ keenness to see his beloved Eurydice grows more and more.
