Yet was it painful to put off his style

Of awful distance, and assume a smile: 360

So between these, the gracious and the grand,

Succeeded nothing that the Doctor plann’d.

The sullen youth, with some reviving dread,

Bow’d and then hang’d disconsolate his head;

And, muttering welcome in a muffled tone,

Stalk’d cross the park to meditate alone,

Saying, or rather seeming to have said,

“Go! seek your daughter, and be there obey’d.”
