The Persons whom Elizabeth beheld
Were a few Peasants from the neighbouring Green,
Farmers of Occupations small, and Wives
Of these small Farmers! who in modest Pride
Looked kindly down upon the Cottage Dames,
Wives to the Lads who laboured for the Farm.
Were a few Peasants from the neighbouring Green,
Farmers of Occupations small, and Wives
Of these small Farmers! who in modest Pride
Looked kindly down upon the Cottage Dames,
Wives to the Lads who laboured for the Farm.
