to most suburban places ; That you were sure 'twas free from strife or harm, If such can be, where found the Human race is. Then strolling on, you reach' d the Village street, And paus'd to watch the busy traders' dealings In beer and " baccy", bread and butcher's-meat, Or " bull's-eyes", sacred once, to your own feelings. And round this shop, of course there was a crowd Of little folk, who, like to bees on roses, Discuss' d the sweets, not being over proud How much they smear'd their bodies, o...r their noses. A sudden turn, and lo ! the River bright Before you flow'd, in all its full tide beauty, Sparkling with glowing sunbeams' glancing light, Which told that day had nearly done its duty. Towards the West, a range of pleasant houses Look'd on the water, mostly deck'd with flow'rs, Whilst others, kept, may be, by thriftier spouses, Display'd, in muslin blinds, their tasteful pow'rs. Another road ran Eastward by some Fields, JBorder'd with Walnut trees and quickset hedges, Which promised and produc'd abundant yields, Save where the river favour'd reeds and sedges.
