Seventh Passage

Hippolyta

   I was with Hercules and Cadmus once

  When in a woord of Crete they ayed the bear

  With hounds of Sparta. Never did I hear

  Such gallant chiding; for, besides the groves,

  The skies, the fountains, every region near

  Seemed all one mutual cry. I never heard

  So musical a discord, such sweet thunder. (Shakespeare 277 IV.I 111-117)
