With evening came the banquet and the wine;

The conversazione⁠—the duet

Attuned by voices more or less divine

(My heart or head aches with the memory yet).

The four Miss Rawbolds in a glee would shine;

But the two youngest loved more to be set

Down to the harp⁠—because to Music’s charms

They added graceful necks, white hands and arms.
