Attention!!!
source:  Homeric Hymn to Demeter. Interlinear Translation edited & adapted from the 1914 prose translation by Hugh G. Evelyn-White.My text merely is noticed to be compiled: 1) different lexics , a bit MORE precise in rendering homerig epic hellenic  language and MORE archaic in usage of English .
