Presented by Her
HE sent a herald forth
And bade him cry, with sound of
trumpet, all
The hard conditions; but that she
— would loose
The people: therefore, as they loved
her well,
From then till noon no foot should pace
the street,
Majesty The Queen to H.R.H. the
No eve look down, she passing ; but that alf
Should keep within, doors shut and windows
barr'd.
Then fled she to her inmost bower, and there
Unclasp’d the wedded eagles of her belt,
The grim Earl's gift ; but ever at a breath
She linger’d, looking like a summer moon
Half-dipt in cloud : anon she shook her head,
And shower'd the rippled ringlets to her knee ;
late Prince Consort.
Unclad herself in haste ; adown the stair
Stole on ; and like a creeping sunbeam, slid
From pillar unto pillar, until she reach'd
The gateway ; there she found her palfrey trapt
In purple, blazon’d with armorial gold.
Then she rode forth, clothedon with chastity :
The deep air listen’d round her as she rode,
And all the low wind hardly breathed for fear."
Tennyson.
