long ago
by sappho

long ago beloved, thy memory, atthis,
saddens still my heart as the soft æolic
twilight deepens down on the sea, and fitful
winds that have wandered

over groves of myrtle at amathonte
waft forgotten passion on breaths of perfume.
long ago, how madly i loved thee, atthis!
faithless, light-hearted

loved one, mine no more, who lovest another
more than me; the silent flute and the faded
garlands haunt the heart of me thou forgettest,
long since thy lover.

the speaker still feels sad about atthis’s unfaithfulness.
the speaker feels wonder at the amount of time that has passed.
the speaker feels sad and nostalgic because atthis has forgotten her.
the speaker pours out her scorn and hatred for atthis because of her rejection.
the speaker expresses her inner gladness at the fact that she truly loved atthis.
