All garlanded with carven imageries

Of fruits, and flowers, and bunches of knot grass,

And diamonded with panes of quaint device,

Innumerable of stains and splendid dyes,

As are the tiger moth’s deep damask’d wings.

And in the midst, ’mong thousand heraldries,

And twilight saints, and dim emblazonings,

A shielded ’scutcheon blush’d with blood of queens and kings.

Full on this casement shone the wintry moon,

And threw warm gules on Madeline’s fair breast,
