And now, unveil'd, the Toilet stands display'd
Each silver Vase in mystic order laid.
First, rob'd in white, the Nymph intent adores,
With head uncover'd, the Cosmetic powr's
To that she bends, to that her eyes she rears;
Th'inferior Priestess, at her altar's side,
Trembling begins the sacred rites of Pride. (Canto I, lines 121-128)

Answer:

"at her altar's side"

Explanation:

This imagery would probably best reference religious rites. It can be said that Belinda's morning ritual, where she puts her make up on in front of her vanity, is a form of religious rite, though what she is worshiping as mentioned in the poem, is Pride - over her beauty. This poem was written by Alexander Pope, as part of his collection of poems, The R*ape of the Lock.
