Poems with rhymes of gable

When he crouch'd behind the gable,
Had I once his features scann'd,
Phoebus' self had scarce been able

It slouched around the gable,
And, perching there, discussed if God
Be God, or but a fable.

And played on the fire through a window in the gable
With all his might, the hero, as long as he was able.

They may build, with a love that is sure and stable,
Their cosy cribs under last year's gable.

Till a sense I am unable
To portray began to dawn;
Till the slant sun flung the gable

In a church which is furnish'd with mullion and gable,
With altar and reredos, with gargoyle and groin,
The penitents' dresses are sealskin and sable,

When he crouch'd behind the gable,
Had I once his features scann'd,
Phoebus' self had scarce been able
