How tall, how meet for men-folk grown! Come, see thy kin in the feasting-hall, And tell me if thou knowest them all! O son, O son, we are blithe and fain; But the autumn drought, and the winter rain, The frost and the snow, and St. David’s wind, All these that were, time out of mind, All these a many times have been Since thou the Upland Town hast seen.” Then never a word spake Goldilocks Till they came adown from the wheaten shocks. And there beside his love he stood And he saw her body sweet and good. Then round her love his arms he cast: “The years are as a tale gone past. But many the years that yet shall be Of the merry tale of thee and me. Come, love, and look on the Fathers’ Hall, And the folk of the kindred one and all! For now the Fathers’ House is kind, And all the ill is left behind. And Goldilocks and Goldilocks Shall dwell in the land of the Wheaten Shocks.”
