And Rollingate was now all joy within,
Preparing for the matrimonial scene.
The different tradesfolk came from Ruttendell
With their resources for the festival;
And stores of every kind were now being brought.
(The wedding-ring already had been wrought.)
Upholsterers were busily at work
From early morning till the day grew dark:
Two suites of rooms were thus being re-arranged;
And sundry goods appropriately changed.
