With stones square, of many dyvers hew,

So wel joynëd that, for to say the sothe,

Al semed oon (who that non other knew);

And underneth, the stremës new and new,

As silver bright, springing in suche a wyse

That, whence it cam, ye coude it not devyse.

A litel whyle thus was I al alone,

Beholding wel this délectable place;
