Down in this shady corner, while the other couples are quite at the other end, he raises the sweet face, tranced in the beguiling melody of movement, and kisses the lips with all a man's passionate fervor, holds her in such a clasp that she struggles and throws out one hand wildly, as if suddenly stricken blind, and a frightened expression drowns the sweet delight.
Rosa!" and struggles with all his soul, as well as his body: he gains. But when almost within reach, a wave half drowns him, and he loses. He cries, "Rosa! Rosa!" and swims high and strong. "Rosa! Rosa! Rosa!" He is near it. He cries, "Rosa! Rosa!" and with all the energy of love and life flings himself almost out of the water, and catches hold of the nearest thing on the raft.
