The service elegant and bright,
Our China quaint and rare;

And perfect love abidcs.
The bread Is sponge, the butter cold,
The mullins nice and hot;
What though the winds without blow cold:
The walls little world enfold;
And the storm is soon forgot,
In the firclight's cheerful glow.
A faircr picture who hath seen?
Soft lights and shadows bent;
The central figure Of the scene,
She sits, my wife, my love, my queen
Her head little bent;
And in her eyes of blue
read my bliss anew.

With quiet, gentle grace;
With fingers deit and movements free
She mixes in the cream for me,

And as she sends 1t up
