While pretty young Israelites dance round the Prophet,
In very thin clothing, and but little of it;—
Here Bégrand,[6] who shines in the scriptural path,
As the lovely Suzanna, without ev’n a relic
Of drapery round her, comes out of the bath
In a manner that, Bob says, is quite Eve-angelic!
But, in short, dear, ’twould take me a month to recite
All the exquisite places we’re at, day and night.
Thomas Moore (1779–1852).
