The horses wake and, softly neighing,

search for grass on every side,

the cock too waves its copper plume

and sounds a note, both high and sweet,

which lovers hear most angrily. 2168

Set to leave the trysting chamber

now that night was almost over,

she kissed and embraced him

but was not contented;

with one foot on the floor, the other

still in bed, that slender maid

put her arms around her lover

and gave him a long, long kiss. 2191

324

It inspires the poet’s muse,

makes palace pigeons chirp,

and enrages husbands

of all beautiful women:

it is the trumpet’s call at daybreak,

and the clanging chains of elephants

as they arise from dusty beds,

the noise filling the sky. 2223
