Don Juan 02-005
Canto the Second

V

I said that Juan had been sent to Cadiz --
     A pretty town, I recollect it well --
'T is there the mart of the colonial trade is
     (Or was, before Peru learn'd to rebel),
And such sweet girls-I mean, such graceful ladies,
     Their very walk would make your bosom swell;
I can't describe it, though so much it strike,
Nor liken it-I never saw the like:
