Like to a double cherry, seeming parted,
But yet an union in partition,
Two lovely berries moulded on one stem.”

When the grove receives in her hair the nuptial dew.”

Dressed in a little brief authority,
Most ignorant of what he’s most assured,
His glassy essence, like an angry ape
Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven
As makes the angels weep.”

Each hurries toward his home and sporting-place.”
