Don Juan 02-146
Canto the Second

CXLVI

And Zoe, when the eggs were ready, and
     The coffee made, would fain have waken'd Juan;
But Haidee stopp'd her with her quick small hand,
     And without word, a sign her finger drew on
Her lip, which Zoe needs must understand;
     And, the first breakfast spoilt, prepared a new one,
Because her mistress would not let her break
That sleep which seem'd as it would ne'er awake.

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