Through passage and through passage, until she reached

The platform; there she found her palfrey trapt

With pewter logies and mosaic gold.

Then rode she forth, clothed all in silken tights:

The fiddles played beneath her as she rode,

And the reserved seats hardly breathed for fear.

The little wide-mouthed heads beyond the stalls

Had cunning eyes to see: the crimson rouge

Made her cheek flame: a fast man, winking, shot

Light horrors through her pulses: the saloon
