    There was King Bradmond's palace,
    Was never none richer, the story says:
    For all the windows and the walls
    Were painted with gold, both towers and halls;
    Pillars and doors all were of brass;
    Windows of latten were set with glass;
    It was so rich in many wise,
    That it was like a paradise.

No hammers fell, no ponderous axes rung,
Like some tall palm the mystic fabric sprung.
Majestic silence.
