XLIII.

Juan demurred at this first notice to

Quit; and though Death had threatened an ejection,

His youth and constitution bore him through,

And sent the doctors in a new direction.

But still his state was delicate: the hue

Of health but flickered with a faint reflection

Along his wasted cheek, and seemed to gravel

The faculty—who said that he must travel.
