lxxii.

And when my marriage morn may fall,

She, Dryad-like, shall wear
Alternate leaf and acorn-ball
In wreath about her hair.

And I will work in prose and rhyme,

And praise thee more in both
Than bard has honour'd beech or lime,
Or that Thessalian growth,

In which the swarthy ringdove sat,

And mystic sentence spoke;
And more than England honours that,
Thy famous brother-oak,

lxxv.

Wherein the younger Charles abode

Till all the paths were dim,
And far below the Roundhead rode,
And humm'd a surly hymn.
