How does john milton link the mirth of "l'allegro" with melancholy of "il pensoroso" in these two excerpts?
in notes, with many a winding bout
of linked sweetnes long drawn out,
with wanton heed, and giddy cunning,
the melting voice through mazes running;
untwisting all the chains that tie
the hidden soul of harmony.
(from "l'allegro")

to the full voic'd quire below,
in service high, and anthems cleer,
as may with sweetnes, through mine ear,
dissolve me into extasies,
and bring all heav'n before mine eyes.
and may at last my weary age
find out the peaceful hermitage,
(from "il penseroso")

Read the excerpt from the common sense of bicycling: bicycling for ladies. the bicycle is capable of such high speed that there is a strong temptation to ride so fast as to cause over exertion or excessive perspiration. on the other hand some people ride too slow, causing a zigzag and uncertain movement. while exercising reasonable caution, be a fearless rider. when you come to a steep hill, if the road is clear, let it go as fast as it will. if you rid yourself of that ghost of fear, coasting is one of the greatest delights of cycling. which is the best paraphrase of the text?
