KNIGHTS AND LADIES.
There is in my old pieture-book, A page at which I come to look, Where knights and squires came riding down The cobbles of some steep old town, And ladies from beneath the eaves Flutter their bravest handkerchiefs, Or, smiling proudly, toss down gages — But that was in the Middle Ages. It wouldn't happen now; but still, Whenever I look up the hill Where, dark against the green and blue, The firs come marching two by two, I wonder if perhaps I might See suddenly a shining knight Winding his way adown the green, Exactly as it might have been Those many, many years ago. Perhaps I might. You never know.
