in summer's heat, and mid-time of the day,[00:00:04]

to rest my limbs, upon a bed i lay;[00:00:08]

one window shut, the other open stood,[00:00:12]

which gave such light as twinkles in a wood,[00:00:15]

like twilight glimpse at setting of the sun,[00:00:19]

or night being past, and yet not day begun;[00:00:22]

such light to shamefaced maidens must be shown[00:00:27]

where they may sport, and seem to be unknown:[00:00:31]

then came corinna in her long loose gown,[00:00:36]

her white neck hid with tresses hanging down,[00:00:40]

resembling fair semiramis going to bed,[00:00:44]

or lais of a thousand wooers sped.[00:00:48]

i snatched her gown being thin, the harm was small,[00:00:53]

yet strived she to be covered therewithal,[00:00:57]

and striving thus as one that would be cast,[00:01:01]

betrayed herself, and yielded at the last.[00:01:04]

stark naked as she stood before mine eye,[00:01:09]

not one wen in her body could i spy.[00:01:13]

what arms and shoulders did i touch and see,[00:01:17]

how apt her breasts were to be pressed by me,[00:01:22]

how smooth a belly under her waist saw i,[00:01:27]

how large a leg, and what a lusty thigh.[00:01:31]

to leave the rest, all liked me passing well;[00:01:35]

i clinged her naked body, down she fell:[00:01:40]

judge you the rest, being tired she bade me kiss;[00:01:45]

jove send me more such afternoons as this![00:01:51]
