Plunged, and replunged; again, now twice, now thrice;

And the huge boar, stretched out in sullen death,

Lay, bubbling blood, with harsh, laborious breath.

Then how he brought her water from a well,

That had accompanying tears of joy and vows

Of love, and intercourse of eyes and brows,

And many kisses: then, beneath the boughs,
