The scene opens with a description of a steamy romance at the "secret springs" . The narrator complains about the slippery path that leads to the secret springs. He wonders if it would be natural for two men to hold hands. He says that he would never do such an act, but that he is an adult and that he can control his growl. He guesses that the gods are watching over hot guys. He worries that the man is getting rained on, and he worries that his heart is pounding too much for him to lift his face to see him. He tries to slip away from the man, but he is unable to do so because the man smells so good. He asks the man if he would mind if he warmed his hands up too, and the man says yes. He tells the narrator that he had the "weirdest dream" he has ever had, and asks him to forget about it.
