And, red for anger that he stayed so long,

All headlong throws herself the clouds among.90

And now Leander, fearing to be missed,

Embraced her suddenly, took leave, and kissed:

Long was he taking leave, and loath to go,

And kissed again, as lovers use to do.

Sad Hero wrung him by the hand, and wept,

Saying, "Let your vows and promises be kept:"

Then standing at the door, she turned about,

As loath to see Leander going out.
