Or make him suspect there is fear in your glance.
Be sure that the Lion will still keep his eye on
All Bears and their dens, in the Tiger's behalf;
Meanwhile Ursa Minor eschews base design, or
Intrigue against you, dear. Lift eyes, love, and laugh!
I'll answer for Bruin, he shall not take you in—
The Bear's bona fides nobody impugns;
He asks a kind glance, and your hand in a dance; and
He'll dance "to the very genteelest of tunes"!
