The Orphic Hymn to Mercury is a poem that forms part of a collection of religious hymns found in inscriptions on gold and silver plates, dating from the 3rd century BC. to IV A.D. Such inscriptions were discovered in ancient tombs in Greece and Turkey. The Orphic Hymn to Mercury is a poem dedicated to the god Mercury, who in Roman mythology was associated with the Greek god Hermes. The poem is a tribute to the god of communication, travelers, thieves and merchants. It is one of the best-known Orphic hymns and has been preserved in several ancient manuscripts, including the Derveni Papyrus, which was discovered in Greece in 1962. This is a modern and inspiring version of Kimberlay, I hope you like it! Voltando um pouquinho no tempo para acompanhar minhas leituras filosóficas do dia. haha Ótimo dia a todos os amigos!
