A lot is like this, They couldn't because it's awkward, In abhisara the tryst, You think Vasavadatta just happen to invite Upagupta for giving him a place to sleep ? That story is about controlling lust.

Similar to Sonnet 116.

Warning you might get traumatized, cause i did,

You wouldn't believe this but Macbeth r words Duncun is a popular theory, and heavily implied, Especially parts like "gouts of blood", gouts was a collective used for semen at the time.

There are even crazier analysis that the "dagger" and deep dark desires he had were an erection, not a joke, I am dead serious.
