A rural church; some scattered cottage roofs,From whose secluded hearths the thin blue smoke,
Silently wreathing through the breezeless air,
Ascended, mingling with the summer sky;
A rustic bridge, mossy and weather-stained;
A fairy streamlet, singing to itself;
211
In foliaged beauty—of these elements,
And only these, the simple scene was formed.
