They Came to See The Lady of Shalott

from: The Lady of Shalott -  1881

"Under tower and balcony,
By garden-wall and gallery, 
A gleaming shape she floated by,
Dead-pale between the houses high,
                                        Silent into Camelot.
Out upon the wharfs they came, 
Knight and burgher, lord and dame, 
ANd round the prow they read her name, 
                                        The Lady of Shalott."
