Eurynome's the Three Graces

Eurynome's great joy,
     the Graces of her womb,
     whose names transcend the tomb
like Helen's, famed of Troy!
Ah! Graces all enjoy:
     they fill earth's space and room,
     abhorring away life's gloom,
before the fates destroy.

If mankind survives, spring
     reflects the sun's hot disc,
a brilliant fire breathing,
     a dragon basilisk;
which these three Graces, being
     Eurynome's, might risk!?
