And bury meaning; save that we might spy
Sense low'ring on the pent-house of his eye,[165]
His arms were two twin oaks; his legs so stout,
That they might bear a mansion-house about.
Nor were they,—look but at his body there,
Design'd by fate a much less weight to bear.
"O'er a brown cassock, which had once been black,
Which hung in tatters on his brawny back,
A sight most strange and awkward to behold,
He threw a covering of blue and gold.
