"A Chapel was built in the midst". The Chapel may refer to the factories as industrialization dramatically affected Britain through the working conditions and environment. In addition, my interpretation of the portrait for the poem exhibits a superior explaining something to children. During the industrialization, children were increasingly exploited due to the operation of machines also being a novelty to adult workers; thus, hiring children were preferable for their low wages.
(This is my interpretation and is subject to being a misinterpretation; however, I believe it to be true.)
