“Come here! come here! will you?” she said.
But Hacquin had had a surfeit of pleasure and he replied;
“In God’s name leave me alone. I am doing nothing; and enjoying myself.”
Then the shepherdess cried;
“Come here, Hacquin; I will let you go in further, without making any mark.”
“By St. John,” said Hacquin, “I went far beyond the mark, and I do not want any more.”
He would not go to the shepherdess, who was much vexed to have to remain idle.
