Read this passage from “recessional.” what is the speaker contrasting in these lines?

the tumult and the shouting dies;
the captains and the kings depart:
still stands thine ancient sacrifice,
an humble and a contrite heart.
lord god of hosts, be with us yet,
lest we forget—lest we forget!

the captains and the kings who are departing

the tumult of the crowd and the shouting of the people

the humble hearts and the contrite hearts
