- Wan water from the border hills, Dear voice from the old years, Thy distant music lulls and stills, And moves to quiet tears.
- **GM!!!**
- **And now**
The fugitive of Fate, Thou farest in our life as in a dream, Still wandering with thy lute, Like that sweet paynim lady of old song, Who sang and wandered long, For love of her Aucassin, seeking him! So with thy minstrelsy Thou roamest, dreaming of the country dim, Below the veiled sky!
- So all in vain he sought for thee, but thou Didst never taste of the Lethaean stream, Nor that forgetful fruit, The mystic pom'granate;
But from the Mighty Warden fledst;
- Wide are the populous places of the dead Where souls on earth once wed May never meet, nor each take other's hand, Each far from the other fled!
- **But thou didst die and flit Among the tribes outworn,**
The unavailing myriads of the past: Oft he beheld thy face in dreams of morn, And, waking, wept for it, Till his own time came at last, And then he sought thee in the dusky land!
- 😅**Honour we give them and tears**
And the flag they died to save, Rent from the rain of the spears, Wet from the war and the wave, Shall waft men's thoughts through the dust of the years, Back to their lonely grave!

TO RHODOCLEIA - ON HER MELANCHOLY
SINGING.
- With roses did he woo thee, and with song, With thine own rose, and with the lily sweet, The dark-eyed violet, Garlands of wind-flowers wet, And fragrant love-lamps that the whole night long Burned till the dawn was burning in the skies, Praising THY GOLDEN EYES, AND FEET MORE SILVERY THAN THETIS' FEET!
- Strategies to Harness the Power of DAOs in the Music Industry, This is your guide to bootstrapping a DAO with NFTs and social tokens.
NFTs are the stepping stones for DAOs. By establishing a thriving NFT community, you create a foundation that can easily evolve into a DAO and eventually, incorporate social tokens.
Social tokens, while complex, bring an entirely new dimension to the DAO community. Stay tuned as we unravel the potential of social tokens in the next chapter.
Let's spark some ideas for your music-centric DAO: How about a DAO where art fans vote on your music? Such a model could encourage interaction and stronger ties within your community.
Imagine a DAO where fans can directly contribute to your music creation process. This innovative approach can take fan engagement to new heights.
Rewarding your community for promoting new music can work wonders. This concept, akin to Klezma but within a DAO, can incentivize your superfans to become active promoters if they have a stake.
Envision a decentralized, community-owned record label. Your community not only supports but also finances your work. They are no longer just fans - they are your investors.
DAOs, NFTs, and social tokens could rewrite the rules of the music industry, creating a more inclusive, interactive, and decentralized model. Are you ready to be a part of this revolution?

- Thou hast not dreamed it, but remembered I know thou hast been there, Hast seen the stately dwellings of the dead Rise in the twilight air, And crossed the shadowy bridge the spirits tread, And climbed the golden stair!
Nay, by thy cloudy hair And lips that were so fair, Sad lips now mindful of some ancient smart, And melancholy eyes, the haunt of Care, I know thee who thou art! That Rhodocleia, Glory of the Rose, Of Hellas, ere her close, That Rhodocleia who, when all was done The golden time of Greece, and fallen her sun, Swayed her last poet's heart.
- The Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) has officially launched on the Avalanche, Ethereum, Optimism, and Polygon blockchains.
Now in Mainnet Early Access, CCIP has been adopted by DeFi leaders such as @synthetix.lens and @aaveaave.lens (@bgdlabs.lens) to unlock the cross-chain economy: https://blog.chain.link/ccip-mainnet-early-access/
Synthetix is using #CCIP to seamlessly transfer tokens across chains. This enables Synthetix liquidity to flow toward the areas of highest demand, bypassing the constraints of traditional token bridges.
BGD Labs is integrating CCIP into the Aave protocol to support Aave's cross-chain governance system. CCIP's gas-efficient and time-tested Chainlink infrastructure provides Aave's multi-chain ecosystem with a simpler and more secure foundation for scaling to new blockchain networks.
On July 20, CCIP will become available to all developers across five testnets:
• Arbitrum Goerli
• Avalanche Fuji
• Ethereum Sepolia
• Optimism Goerli
• Polygon Mumbai
Sign up here to get notified as soon as CCIP is available on testnet: https://chainlinkcommunity.typeform.com/to/H4XhW3JE
Gear up: CCIP summer is here.
- **(Rhodocleia was beloved by Rufinus, *one of the late poets of the Gree*k Anthology.)**
Still, Rhodocleia, brooding on the dead, Still singing of the meads of asphodel, Lands desolate of delight? Say, hast thou dreamed of, or remembered, The shores where shadows dwell, Nor know the sun, nor see the stars of night?
There, 'midst thy music, doth thy spirit gaze As a girl pines for home, Looking along the way that she hath come, Sick to return, and counts the weary days! So wouldst thou flee Back to the multitude whose days are done, Wouldst taste the fruit that lured Persephone, The sacrament of death; and die, and be No more in the wind and sun!
- **MELVILLE AND COGHILL.**
(The place of the little hand.)
Dead, with their eyes to the foe, Dead, with the foe at their feet, Under the sky laid low Truly their slumber is sweet, Though the wind from the Camp of the Slain Men blow, And the rain on the wilderness beat.
Dead, for they chose to die When that wild race was run; Dead, for they would not fly, Deeming their work undone, Nor cared to look on the face of the sky, Nor loved the light of the sun.
- **[Greek text which cannot be reproduced]**
**And now,**when first on England falls The shadow of a darkening fate, You hear the Mother ere she calls, You leave your ocean-girdled walls, And face her foemen in the gate.
COLONEL BURNABY.
Thou that on every field of earth and sky Didst hunt for Death, who seemed to flee and fear, How great and greatly fallen dost thou lie Slain in the Desert by some wandering spear: 'Not here, alas!' may England say, 'not here Nor in this quarrel was it meet to die, But in that dreadful battle drawing nigh To thunder through the Afghan passes sheer:
Like Aias by the ships shouldst thou have stood, And in some glen have stayed the stream of flight, The bulwark of thy people and their shield, When Indus or when Helmund ran with blood, Till back into the Northland and the Night The smitten Eagles scattered from the field.'
- **ADVANCE, AUSTRALIA.**
On the offer of help from the Australians after the fall of Khartoum.
Sons of the giant Ocean isle In sport our friendly foes for long, Well England loves you, and we smile When you outmatch us many a while, So fleet you are, so keen and strong.
You, like that fairy people set Of old in their enchanted sea Far off from men, might well forget An elder nation's toil and fret, Might heed not aught but game and glee.
But what your fathers were you are In lands the fathers never knew,
'Neath skies of alien sign and star You rally to the English war; Your hearts are English, kind and true.
- **A year ago to-night '**
twas not too late. The thought comes through our mirth, again, again; Methinks I hear the halting foot of Fate Approaching and approaching us; and then Comes cackle of the House, and the Debate! Enough; he is forgotten amongst men.
- I miss You ,everyday!
- **He will not come again**
whate'er our need, He will not come, who is happy, being freed From the deathly flesh and perishable things, And lies of statesmen and rewards of kings.
- who is happy
He will not come again, whate'er our need, He will not come, who is happy
- **THE WHITE PACHA.**
Nay, not for England's cause, nor to restore Her trampled flag - for he loved Honour more - Nay, not for Life, Revenge, or Victory, Would he have fled, whose hour had dawned to die.
- A web3 fren (not on lens yet unfortunately) asked me this below.
What would you answer her? 👇🏽👇🏽
Oh and btw she creates kick-ass content and would be a great fit for our Lensfam.
@stani.lens can u help?
- the number of pancake swap in the answers scares me
- Web3 project does not need to have a Discord server just because its a web3 project, in fact I think you could build a community within Lens and have a more decentralized approach that way
- **Crypto Funding Plunges 80%, How to Join the 20%**
Ok, we get it. The echo chamber of crypto media is parroting how VC funding plunged 80% in Q1, according to Pitchbook. But we’re glass-half-full kind of people, so we will focus on the 20% who raised instead. We talked to Joe Kim from Hypelab, who was oversubscribed on his seed round.
- **Vain is the dream! However Hope may rave,**
He perished with the folk he could not save, And though none surely told us he is dead, And though perchance another in his stead, Another, not less brave, when all was done, Had fled unto the southward and the sun, Had urged a way by force, or won by guile To streams remotest of the secret Nile, Had raised an army of the Desert men, And, waiting for his hour, had turned again And fallen on that False Prophet, yet we know GORDON is dead, and these things are not so!
- **All things that travail on the earth,**
God's will they work, if God there be, If not, what is my life to me?
Seek we no further, but abide Within this city great and wide, In her and for her living, we Have no less joy than to be free; Nor death nor grief can quite appal The folk that dwell within her wall, Nor aught but with our will befall!

- What video game are you best at?
- #Web3 games make it possible to enforce marketplace royalties so that game developers continuously earn revenue every time an NFT is transacted.
This simple change fundamentally alters the incentive structure between game publishers and players.
Game monetization and design are intrinsically linked.

- **Dear city of Zeus**
The Voice from Rome's imperial days, In Thee meet all things, and disperse, In Thee, for Thee, O Universe! To me all's fruit thy seasons bring, Alike thy summer and thy spring; The winds that wail, the suns that burn, From Thee proceed, to Thee return.
