  Ovid's Metamorphoses, Book Thirteen
   
  What are to him the sculptures of the shield, 
Heav'n's planets, Earth, and Ocean's watry field? 
The Pleiads, Hyads; less, and greater Bear, 
Undipp'd in seas; Orion's angry star; 
Two diff'ring cities, grav'd on either hand; 
Would he wear arms he cannot understand? 
   
  Apostrophes abound (though curiously not in 'watry'!)
   
  best wishes
