Each side the curving ears—that pure undraped

Pout of the sister paps—that ... Once for all,

Say—her consummate circle thus escaped

With its innumerous circlets, sank absorbed,

Safe in the cloud—O naked Moon full-orbed!

But what means this? The downy swathes combine,

Conglobe, the smothery coy-caressing stuff

Curdles about her! Vain each twist and twine

Those lithe limbs try, encroached on by a fluff

Fitting as close as fits the dented spine
