There is room enough for you and for me
To travel side by side.'
"Half shyly the Church approached the World,
And gave him her hand of snow:
The old World grasped it and walked along,
Saying, in accents low,
'Your dress is too simple to please my taste;
I will give you pearls to wear,
Rich velvet and silks for your graceful form,
And diamonds to deck your hair.'
