The widest of berths

The widest of berths — had your Actaeon been thus warned. In these woods, if one draws nigh, one is besprent; once besprent, one is cervine, increasingly cervine, cervine even unto a hart, which hart now warns you, my hounds.




Happier pastures

Happier pastures from darker woods; happier pastures, hounds caper, a hart leaps. When did I see a hart leap, and let him be; when did I say, hounds, leave him be? Happier pastures, a hart leaps; caper, hounds, leave him be.
