Don Juan 02-194
Canto the Second

CXCIV

They look upon each other, and their eyes
     Gleam in the moonlight; and her white arm clasps
Round Juan's head, and his around her lies
     Half buried in the tresses which it grasps;
She sits upon his knee, and drinks his sighs,
     He hers, until they end in broken gasps;
And thus they form a group that's quite antique,
Half naked, loving, natural, and Greek.

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