“Each swain who above shall behold it move
Like a meteor through the sky,[47]
His heart ’twill ensnare, for her ringlets fair
With those of Freya shall vie.
“Though gold be dead, when it touches the head
Of that Disa in beauty’s bloom,
’Twill life receive, and easy to weave
Like flax will it straight become.
“Like the high-plum’d crest by the winds carest,
It shall wave and enchant the sight;
