Compare Dante, Purgatory, Canto 10, ll.64-9:
=E2=80=98Trescando alzato=E2=80=99 could have sexual overtones (as could a g=
reat deal of
the Canto), while Michal=E2=80=99s response of pride and scorn results in he=
r
refusal to accept David=E2=80=99s natural sexual expression, the inspiration=
 of the
Holy Spirit, and the will of God - all of which are fused together here.
But this is Dante, not necessarily Samuel.
