And my sweet Mary when, a Flushing bride,
She flashed like sunlight on the ancient room,
J showed her half in sport and half in pride.
The trophy and mute guardian of our home,
And told her the old rede, "While yet its shine
Upon the tapestry there can show undimmed,
No cloud shall gather on thy naughty line,
BY legend hOnOred and by minstrel hymned.
And 50, though modern eyes may laugh in scorn,
And modern lips may doubt or sheer, OF jest,
Faith gracefully by eager youth is worn,
I bid thee give the sword its fitting rest.
Boy, l could tell thee many an eerie tale,
al mockery OF strange creedS avenged titli sore
But these ola eyes dull, old memories fail
et thou vert wise TO heed | sueak no more
A the ear Round.
