And bitter oranges—branches bend beneath their weight;
And bitter-orange fruit beneath whose weight branches bend,
And some of its fruit looks like a polo mallet.
and some of them look like a polo mallet.

I liken it to the breasts of nubile, full-breasted young women,
I liken it to budding breasts,
whose gauzy shifts they have dyed with saffron.
whose sheer coverings are dyed with saffron.
