Down to a grassy space level and wide,

Here and there dotted with a tree, but trees

Of rarer leaf, each foreigner at ease,

Set by itself: and in the centre spreads,

Borne upon three uneasy leopards' heads,

A laver, broad and shallow, one bright spirt

Of water bubbles in. The walls begirt

With trees leave off on either hand; pursue

Your path along a wondrous avenue

Those walls abut on, heaped of gleamy stone,
