"Öğrenecekler kuşkusuz. Sonunda. Öğrenmeliler de. Bilimsel gerçek, sonunda galip gelir, güneşi bir kayanın ardına gizleyemezsin." Mülksüzler'den Ursula K. Le Guin

Dionysus

born of Semele—he brought with him liquor from the grape, something to match the bread from Demeter. He introduced it among mortal men. When they can drink up what streams off the vine, unhappy mortals are released from pain. It grants them sleep, allows them to forget their daily troubles. Apart from wine, there is no cure for human hardship. He, being a god, is poured out to the gods, so human beings receive fine benefits as gifts from him. Euripides-The Bacchae - trans. Ian Johnston

PAN!

Nonnus, Dionysiaca 16. 289 ff : "Goatherd Pan cried out: ‘I wish my father had taught me the trick of that matchmaking wine! I wish I could be lord of the mindtripping grape, like Bakkhos (Bacchus)! Then I should have seen that cruel maiden Ekho (Echo), asleep and well drunken! Then I should have achieved my love, which like a gadfly sends me gadding afar! Farewell to this pasturage! For while I water my sheep here by a neighbouring spring, Dionysos draws intractable Nymphai to marriage by means of his tippler's river! He has invented a medicine for Eros--his plant : away with the goat's milk, away with the milk of my ewes! For that cannot bring sleep to desire, nor a maiden to marriage. I alone, Kythereia [Aphrodite], must suffer. Alas for love! Syrinx [transformed into a reed] escaped from Pan's marriage and left him without a bride, and now she cries Euoi to the newly-made marriage of Dionysos with melodies unasked; while Syrinx gives voice, and to crown all, Ekho chimes in with her familiar note. O Dionysos, charmer of mortals, shepherd of the bridal intoxication! you alone happy, because when the Nymphe denied, you found out wine, love's helper to deck out the marriage!’ ◦Nonnos, Dionysiaca - Greek Epic C5th A.D.
