Don Juan 03-039
Canto the Third

     XXXIX
Hence all this rice, meat, dancing, wine, and fiddling,
     Which turn'd the isle into a place of pleasure;
The servants all were getting drunk or idling,
     A life which made them happy beyond measure.
Her father's hospitality seem'd middling,
     Compared with what Haidee did with his treasure;
'T was wonderful how things went on improving,
While she had not one hour to spare from loving.

George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824)
