  1. A year of American travel. By Jessie Benton Fre´mont page 136
    The bride sat alone on her horse, under an arch of flowers and ribbons, which was carried by a groomsman on either side, the ends of the arch resting on their saddles, and on either side of them her bride-maids; the bridegroom, on an exceptionally fine horse, surrounded by his friends; and then the rest of the company, most of the men riding singly, but many riding as I have described, with a girl on the saddle--a bright glittering mass of ribbons, flowers, bright beads, gold-lace; the women in satin dresses and slippers, the men in the dress of the time in California, which is exactly that we see in Spanish pictures--short velvet jackets covered with braid and gold embroidery, the velvet trousers open over full white drawers, while a string of bells down the seam jingled even more than do the bangles of ladies in church.

    When the leaf of the mulberry is spun into thread,
    Then the spinner is shrouded and the weaver is dead;

    And the films of pale gold clasp the spool as it whirls,
    As it ripens and rounds
    Like some exquisite fruit
    In the tropical bounds,
    In air sweet as a lute,
    Till the shroud and the tomb, Dyed in rainbow and bloom,
    Glisten forth from the loom
    Into garments of pride,
    Into robes for a bride,
    Into lace-woven air
    That an angel might wear. (6.24)
