That leads to the white porch the Sunday throng,

Hand-coupled urchins in restrainëd talk,

And anxious pedagogue that chastens wrong,

And posied churchwarden with solemn stalk,

And gold-bedizen'd beadle flames along,

And gentle peasant clad in buff and green,

Like a meek cowslip in the spring serene;

XI.

And blushing maiden—modestly array'd

In spotless white,—still conscious of the glass;
