In Sweden is unlikely good with weather,
Plus 10 in May, and raining, raining further.
That's why the best is run to Rome, where
Is delicious wine and men are warmer.

The fountains of Piazza Mattie, Trevi, Triton,
Recalled the scene of Marcello with Swedish blonde*,
But you just look in a flash at antique and baroque,
Then buzz off dry, have no caftan*, you are broke.
