Step #07: il verbo nella poesia

From Venus and Adonis by William Shakespeare

  

Imperiously he leaps, he neighs, he bounds,

And now his woven girths he breaks asunder;

The bearing earth with his hard hoof he wounds,

Whose hollow womb resounds like heaven’s thunder;

The iron bit he crusheth ‘tween his teeth,

Controlling what he was controlled with.

From The Rape of Lucrece by William Shakespeare

They, mustering to the quiet cabinet

Where their dear governess and lady lies,

Do tell her she is dreadfully beset

And fright her with confusion of their cries.

She, much amazed, breaks ope her locked-up eyes,

Who, peeping forth this tumult to behold,

Are by his flaming torch dimmed and controlled.

William Shakespeare
