Thou com'st, dost fortify, and settle there!
Who canst defend as well as get;
And never hadst one quarter beat up yet;
Now thou art in, thou ne'er will part
With one inch of my vanquish'd heart;
For since thou took'st it by assault from me,
'Tis garrison'd so strong with thoughts of thee
It fears no beauteous enemy.",2007-04-26,13795,•Cited by Kames as an instance of the licentious extension of metaphor that overstrains the mind (119-20).
