	On "Helen"
		Helen’s response to the hate-filled gaze of "all Greece" is not a static one.
		Helen too smiles in a desperate attempt to counteract the condemnation that is growing "deeper still" for her part in the Trojan war.
		Helen's birth is purified: in the traditional myth, she was conceived when Zeus took the form of a swan and seduced Leda; the Helen in H. D.'s poem is "God's daughter, born of love." Furthermore, there is no reference to her infidelity and her part in causing the Trojan War.

		Helen's beautiful white skin is contrasted with the "lustre as of olives where she stands." I take this to allude to her beauty contrasted with the baseness of the other less elegant things around her.
		Helen is displayed with a wealth of emotion and is portrayed as a strong, intelligent woman aware of people's conceptions of her.
		Helen does not give reasons as to why she should be blamed for all that has happened, but it is obvious that she feels guilt.

		Helen could be the symbol of such materialism because her beauty caused her to be possessed, but that possesion never made her happy, nor did it make the possessor happy.
		Helen was so beautiful that her father was afraid that a disappointed suitor would cause a war so he made the suitors pledge to support the one he choose.
		Helen's father had forseen difficulties as a result of Helen's beauty so he made all her suitors support the one who was victorious.

		Moreover, the counsels of Zeus added further troubles unto these; for upon the land of Hellas and the hapless Phrygians he brought a war, that he might lighten mother-earth of her myriad hosts of men, and to the bravest of the sons of Hellas bring renown.
		Helen, never believe that the stranger, whoe'er he was that came, has spoken naught but truth.

		All Greece reviles the wan face when she smiles, hating it deeper still when it grows wan and white, remembering past enchantments and past ills.
		Greece sees unmoved, God's daughter, born of love, the beauty of cool feet and slenderest knees, could love indeed the maid, only if she were laid, white ash amid funereal cypresses.

	All Greece hates
		The poem says that Greece hates Helen's face when she is smiling, and then says that they hate it even more when they know she is thinking about the past.
		The poem describes Helen's face as becoming wan and white, two words that can be used together to describe the looks of a deathly or ghastly person, but I believe the word "white" may also contain other implications.
		These "ills" that Helen is thinking of probably are the problems and distresses that she caused between the warring cities.

		Greece in the 50s still had the customs of dowry and arranged marriages, but there were no castes; access to education made it possible for some poor to marry into rich families, and young people could actually get to know each other (particularly when they were both migrants living away from home).
		By the end of the 60s, the economic conditions of Greece greatly improved, and the demand for family dramas, and for songs with themes of emigration, poverty, and depression decreased.
