45 Sweet castle at whose gate so long I lay Leaguering thy moat with all artillery Of patient love, and setting in array The prance and tramp of all contingency Of thought and fancy ; sending day by day Much overture of courteous heraldry ; Hoping for years to win the happy way To the deep doors of thy full treasury Morning by morning on thy battled towers What blazonry of beauty blinded me ! While terrible thy banners minded me That only for the brave were those bright bowers — Then most trium...phant wast thou when most tender, Strong in defiance, stronger in surrender. 46 Home : Its Making n. ' Indocilis pauperiem pati. ' And so a prisoner at thy feet I fell When thou didst touch me with imperial hand, And with most gracious bosom think it well To invest me there and then with full command Of thine and thee — thy castles and thy land, With treasures past what any queen could tell : Thy flag by the fond breeze so boldly fanned I did not find it in my heart to quell, But mine I straightway hoisted by its side O'er thy sweet champaign in one air to ride ; 1 could not take one single archive-key, But followed, as I could, led on by thee ; And thus I found thee rich beyond belief — Now am I poor indeed or only rich in grief.
