Let us swear an oath, and keep it with an equal mind,
In the hollow Lotos-land to live and lie reclined
On the hills like Gods together, careless of mankind.
--
Choric Song, st. 8.Alfred Tennyson (Lord)

I swear by Apollo the physician, and Aesculapius, and Health, and All-heal, and all the gods and goddesses, that, according to my ability and judgment, I will keep this Oath and this stipulation — to reckon him who taught me this Art equally dear to me as my parents, to share my substance with him, and relieve his necessities if required; to look upon his offspring in the same footing as my own brothers, and to teach them this art, if they shall wish to learn it, without fee or stipulation; and that by precept, lecture, and every other mode of instruction, I will impart a knowledge of the Art to my own sons, and those of my teachers, and to disciples bound by a stipulation and oath according to the law of medicine, but to none others.
Hippocrates
'Twas when the seas were roaring
With hollow blasts of wind,
A damsel lay deploring,
All on a rock reclined.John Gay
How beautiful they are,
The lordly ones
Who dwell in the hills,
In the hollow hills.William Sharp
How beautiful they are,
The lordly ones
Who dwell in the hills,
In the hollow hills.Fiona MacLeod
How beautiful they are,
The lordly ones
Who dwell in the hills,
In the hollow hills.Fiona McLeod
