Adm. Since summer’s fiery Sirius, fair cousin,

Neither from place nor power in heaven declines,

Will you not rest?

Leonor. Ah, what a noble sport

Is hunting! who so abject-spirited

As not to love its generous cruelty!

Adm. It is indeed a noble imitation

Of noblest war. As when a white-tuskt boar

Holds out alone against the yelling pack,

Gores one, o’erthrows another, all the while
