Ara. But I could say, my lord——

Dion. Ay, you could say what would revoke the sun,

Turn back into his heart his golden spears,

And from the sapphire battlements make pour

Surpris�d night! How easy then to shake

The scarce-sworn vow from my unfended breast

To melt like snowflake caught in lap of June!

Ara. O, sir——

Dion. You've that in you defeats resolve,

And casts in broil the mind's high chancery.
