Still the loud stamping doth not cease,
Still they blow noses, cough, and sneeze,
Still everywhere, without, within,
The lamps illuminating shine;
The steed benumbed still pawing stands
And of the irksome harness tires,
And still the
coachmen
round the fires(11)
Abuse their masters, rub their hands:
But Eugene long hath left the press
To array himself in evening dress.

E quale, annunziatrice de li albori,
l'aura di maggio movesi e olezza,
tutta
impregnata
da l'erba e da' fiori;
tal mi senti' un vento dar per mezza
la fronte, e ben senti' mover la piuma,
che fe sentir d'ambrosia l'orezza.
