Don Juan 02-176
Canto the Second

CLXXVI

Now she prolong'd her visits and her talk
     (For they must talk), and he had learnt to say
So much as to propose to take a walk,-
     For little had he wander'd since the day
On which, like a young flower snapp'd from the stalk,
     Drooping and dewy on the beach he lay,-
And thus they walk'd out in the afternoon,
And saw the sun set opposite the moon.

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