The Isles of Greece Lord Byron Background The Isles of Greece 是拜伦的著名长诗《唐璜》第3诗章的一个部分。原来并无标题，只是后人为了方便，权且把第1节第1行当作标题。该章完成于1819年，发表于1821年。The Isles of Greece 集中体现了拜伦对希腊哀其不幸、怒其不争的特殊情怀，为历来传颂的名篇。 THE isles of Greece! the isles of Greece!Where burning Sappho loved and sung,Where grew the arts of war and peace,---Where Delos rose and Phoebus sprung!Eternal summer gilds them yet,But all, except their sun, is set.
