A figure like your father, Armed at point exactly, cap-a-pe, Appears before them and with solemn march Goes slow and stately by them.

Horatio paints a picture.
He picks up the grey
Squeezes it onto his palette.
He is starting with the general wash
Dotting in the details
Then spreading them from top to bottom.
He moves the brush across the canvas
Deliberately
From one side to the other
Pushing the picture in all directions
From the middle of the page.
