And she, the lonely widow,

Now in the church, time-sober'd minds resign

To solemn pray'r, and the loud chaunted hymn,—

With glowing picturings of joys divine

Painting the mist-light where the roof is dim;

But youth looks upward to the window shine,

Warming with rose and purple and the swim

Of gold, as if thought-tinted by the stains

Of gorgeous light through many-color'd panes;
