Quoted By:
From the twins come less laborious callings and a more agreeable way of life, provided by varied song and voices of harmonious tone, slender pipes, the melodies inborn in strings and the words fitted thereto: those so endowed find even work a pleasure. They would banish the arms of war, the trumpet's call and the gloom of old age: theirs is a life of ease and unfading youth spent in the arms of love. They also discover paths to the skies, complete with a survey of the heavens with numbers and measurements, and outstrip the flight of the stars. Nature yields to their genius, which it serves in all things. So many are the accomplishments of which the twins are fruitful.
