That rung there woonce, in evenèn geämes;

An' while the swaÿèn cypress bow'd,

In chilly wind, his darksome sh'oud

An' honeyzuckles, beäre o' leäves,

Still reach'd the window-sheädèn eaves

Up where the clematis did trim

The stwonèn arches mossy rim,

The hall, a-hung wi' holly, rung

Wi' many a tongue o' wold an' young.

There, in the geärden's wall-bound square,
