And so huge a White Favor, had Gog been Groom
He need not have worn a bigger.
CCXXVII.
And then to see the Groom! the Count
With Foreign Orders to such an amount,
And whiskers so wild—nay, bestial;
He seem'd to have borrow'd the shaggy hair
As well as the Stars of the Polar Bear,
To make him look celestial!
CCXXVIII.
