Religion

IV

by Thomas Hardy 1840–1928

From Time's Laughingstocks, and Other Verses

Religion

So, by her window-square we stood; ay, with our lanterns there we
stood,
And he along with us,—not singing, waiting for a sign;
And when we’d quired her carols three a light was lit and out looked
she,
A shawl about her bedgown, and her colour red as wine.
