Celia's Home-Coming
Cyder bring and cowslip wine,
Fruits and flavours from the East,
Pears and pippins too, and fine
Saffron loaves to make a feast:
China dishes, silver cups.
For the board where Celia sups!
Then, when all the fcasting's done,
She shall draw us round the blaze.
Laugh, and tell us every one
Of her far triumphant days—
Celia, out of doors a star.
By the hearth a holier Lar!
