Excerpt from The Romance of a Country a Masque, Vol. 2
Where falls not hail, or rain, or any snow,
Nor ever wind blows loudly; but it lies
Deep-meadow"d, happy, fair with orchard lawns
And bowery hollows.
The White Time had passed; the blossoms had fallen in white showers from the trees, and the Fair Country no longer wore her bridal raiment. But the bridegrooms lingered, although a golden summer poured daily beauty upon the meadows of the Alidrah.
Beautiful meadows! lying now beneath the sun, deep-coloured beneath a sky of deepest blue, their grass scarcely visible amidst the waves of colours - yellow, blue, red - in which the flowers decked themselves.
