The poem describes the children's hour when the children come downstairs after their day's activities. The children - Alice, Allegra, and Edith - plot and plan to surprise their father. They rush downstairs and enter his study, climbing all over him with kisses. Though he tries to escape, they surround him everywhere. He jokes that as an old man, he has captured them in the fortress of his heart, where he will keep them forever.
