In Praise of Olympus
Apr. 22nd, 2012 06:00 pmI keep forgetting to mention, I have another collection of Greek prayers out via Lulu. I mention it because I think it's a cool thing, not because I'm any sort of salesperson (anything in it is also available online somewhere, because availability is the point). In case anyone is interested, though...
It's at Lulu at http://www.lulu.com/shop/hearthstone/in-praise-of-olympus-prayers-to-the-greek-gods/paperback/product-18913537.html
and it's at Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/In-Praise-Of-Olympus-Prayers/dp/1105553272/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1335132394&sr=8-4
and the PDF is at http://www.lulu.com/shop/hearthstone/in-praise-of-olympus-prayers-to-the-greek-gods/ebook/product-18913573.html
and the ePub is at http://www.lulu.com/shop/hearthstone/in-praise-of-olympus-prayers-to-the-greek-gods/ebook/product-20046111.html
and the Nook book is at B&N at http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/books/1110196103?ean=9781105652691
and the Kindle does not yet exist because APPARENTLY formatting it for that is not yet within my capabilities.
Man, when did this get so complicated...

To Asklepios
Oct. 23rd, 2004 03:17 pmKind Asklepios, healer whose touch brings relief
from sickness and pain, able son of Apollo.
Asklepios, provider of health, dearest of gifts;
destroyer of maladies deadly and trifling;
rebuilder of bodies, restorer of hope,
constant friend of humanity, I honor you.
Asklepios, whose skill passes all limits but one,
and that by will, not nature, I pray to you.
Asklepios, you have kept my family in good health,
you have answered my prayers swiftly and surely.
Of your power and your mercy I have no doubt;
in your favor and your good will I have all faith.
from sickness and pain, able son of Apollo.
