The laboring clouds do often rest;

Meadows trim, with daisies pied; 75

Shallow brooks, and rivers wide;

Towers and battlements [it] sees

Bosomed high in tufted trees,

Where perhaps some beauty lies,

[The cynosure of neighboring eyes]. 80

[Hard by a cottage chimney smokes]

From betwixt two aged oaks,

[Where Corydon and Thyrsis met]
