Don Juan 01-089
Canto the First

LXXXIX

The poet meant, no doubt, and thus appeals
     To the good sense and senses of mankind,
The very thing which every body feels,
     As all have found on trial, or may find,
That no one likes to be disturb'd at meals
     Or love.-I won't say more about "entwined"
Or "transport," as we knew all that before,
But beg'security' will bolt the door.

George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824) ByronLong
