XCIII.

Thou hast a rich world round thee—mighty shades

Weaving their gorgeous tracery o’er thy head,

With the light melting through their high arcades

As through a pillar’d cloister’s;[298] but the dead

Sleep not beneath; nor doth the sunbeam pass

To marble shrines through rainbow-tinted glass;

Yet thou, by fount and forest-murmur led

To worship, thou art blest! to thee is shown

Earth in her holy pomp, deck’d for her God alone.
