Cymon's Plea for Supra-Natural Charm

Frederic Leighton (1884)
Artemis, Slayer of Wild Beasts, Daughter of Zeus, whose image was set up of Agamemnon when he sailed on swift shipboard for Troy, give Thou ear unto my prayer, and ward off the Spirits of Ill, a thing small, O Goddess, for Thee, but great for me.
- Theognis of Megara (11-14)
