Don Juan 02-009
Canto the Second

IX

Don Juan bade his valet pack his things
     According to direction, then received
A lecture and some money: for four springs
     He was to travel; and though Inez grieved
(As every kind of parting has its stings),
     She hoped he would improve-perhaps believed:
A letter, too, she gave (he never read it)
Of good advice-and two or three of credit.

George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824) ByronLong
