The bride looked as fresh as a queen;
And so they returned to the merry greenwood,
Amongst the leaves so green.”

Seemed washing his hands with invisible soap,
In imperceptible water.”

In the dull December light,
And work—work—work,
When the weather is warm and bright—
While underneath the eaves
The brooding swallows cling
As if to show me their sunny backs
And twit me with the spring.”
—Thomas Hood (1799–1845)
