    The dance gaed thro' the lighted ha',
    To thee my fancy took its wing;

But let concealment, like a worm i' th' bud,
Feed on her read more

But let concealment, like a worm i' th' bud,
Feed on her damask cheek. She pined in thought;
And, with a green and yellow melancholy,
She sat like Patience on a monument,
Smiling at grief.
