For instance, Daughter’s Father kisses his little girl goodnight, strokes her hair, hugs her warmly, then goes into the next room where he becomes Son’s Father, who says in a hearty voice, perhaps with a light punch on the boy’s shoulder: “Goodnight, Son, see ya in the morning.””

In the cool air to sit and chat,
Till Phoebus, dipping in the West,
Shall lead the world the way to rest.”
