The one to remain hung on the other's neck, and
passionately
kissed him,
While the one to depart tightly pressed the one to remain in his arms.

And the bold, trembling anemone awhile to spare
Her flowers starry fair;

Their sweetness to keep
Longer than any fire-bosomed flower born
Between midnight and midnight deep.

a personal appeal of the author, who was

deformed by one shoulder
being a trifle higher than the other; this malicious suggestion reposed
also on the fact that the _quasi_-hero of "Le Roi s'Amuse" (1832, a

Cinaede Thalle, mollior cuniculi capillo
Vel anseris medullula vel imula oricilla
Vel pene languido senis situque araneoso,
Idemque Thalle turbida rapacior procella,

Inepte, quae palam soles habere tamquam avita.
