InThe Twelve Lays of the Gipsy, one of the masterpieces of modern Greek poetry, Palamás puts into the mouth of his Gipsy these words, addressed to the Beautiful Immortals, who symbolize the achievements of ancient Greek civilization:
What if you are immortal ? Your life is over,
The full life that you lived in full bodily vigour
In the sun and air of the blissful country of your birth.
Now there is another sun, another air, and you are only
Apparitions.
