Who never trembled at a fear like mine,

These seven old hideous

Of beings immortal.

umbrella
up, and
properly balanced in her grasp; but at last I successfully accomplished
this, and saw it go bobbing down the street through the rain, without

violently to get it right.

Blithe of heart, from week to week
Thou dost play at hide-and-seek;
While the patient primrose sits 35
Like a beggar in the cold,

Slip'st into thy sheltering [2] hold;
Liveliest
of the vernal train [3]
When ye all are out again.
