All day the Wizard Lady sat aloof;
Spelling
out scrolls of dread antiquity
Under the cavern's fountain-lighted
roof;
Or
broidering the pictured poesy
Of some high tale upon
her growing woof,
Which
the sweet splendor of her smiles could dye
In hues outshining
heaven--and ever she
Added some grace to the
wrought poesy:--
-- P. B. Shelley
