And pretty little boys and girls. Around,

Across, along, the garden's shrubby maze,

They walk, they sit, they stand. What crowds press on,

Eager to mount the stairs, eager to catch

First vacant bench or chair in long-room plac'd.

Here prig with prig holds conference polite,

And indiscriminate, the gaudy beau,

And sloven mix. Here he, who all the week

Took bearded mortals by the nose, or sat

Weaving dead hairs, and whistling wretched strain,
