All yellowed with the shaded sun

From Peacock Pie by Walter de la Mare
The Window
by Walter de la Mare

Behind the blinds I sit and watch
The people passing - passing by;
And not a single one can see
My tiny watching eye.

They cannot see my little room,
All yellowed with the shaded sun,
They do not even know I'm here;
Nor'll guess when I am gone.
