The gemmy bridle glitter’d free,

Like to some branch of stars we see

Hung in the golden Galaxy[45].

The bridle bells rang merrily

As he rode down to Camelot:

And from his blazon’d baldric[46] slung

A mighty silver bugle hung,

And as he rode his armour rung,

Beside remote Shalott.

All in the blue unclouded weather
