Persephone (XVI)
During Persephone’s absence,Demeter would lament
and make the earth barren -
the season of winter.
Yet when Persephone would return
to the realms above,
Demeter would rejoince
and make the earth would bear fruit again -
the season of summer.

Persephone (XV)
Demeter suspected some treachery
from Hades,
and straightaway asked her daughter
about having eaten anything
in the underworld.
When it was affirmed
that Persephone did taste of the pomegranate,
it was decreed, by divine law,
that she would spend one third of every year
in the underworld,
with her husband Hades;
for the rest of the year,
she would return to Mount Olympus,
in the company of her mother
and immortals gods.
