premature ejaculation

8 Notes

παρθένον δ’ ἐν ἄνθεσιν
τηλεθάεσσι λαβὼν ἔκλινα, μαλθακῇ δὲ μιν
χλαίνῃ καλύψας, αὐχὲν’ ἀγκάλῃς ἔχων,
δείματι παυσαμένην τὼς ὥστε νέβρον εἱλόμην
μαζῶν τε χερσὶν ἠπίως ἐφηψάμῃν,
ᾗπερ ἔφηνε νέον ἥβης ἐπήλυσιν χρόα·
ἅπαν τε σῶμα καλὸν ἀμφαφώμενος
λευκὸν ἀφῆκα μένος, ξανθῆς ἐπιψαύων τριχός.

Taking the girl, I laid her down among the blooming flowers
covering her with my soft cloak, holding her neck with my arm,
and when she stopped, afraid like a fawn,
I won her over, reaching for her breasts gently with my hands,
her fresh skin approaching prime age,
and when I was touching that beautiful body all over
I sent forth my white force, while I was caressing her golden hair.
