With ivy berries wreathed, and his blithe youth, 55

Had by him, ere he parted thence, a son

Much like his father, but his mother more,

Whom therefore she brought up, and [Comus] named:

Who, ripe and [frolic] of his full-grown age,

At last betakes him to this [ominous] wood,

And, in thick shelter of black shades imbowered,

Excels his mother at her mighty art;

Offering to every weary traveller
