271 ページ - Twere better by far To have matched our fair cousin with young Lochinvar.' One touch to her hand, and one word in her ear, When they reached the hall door, and the charger stood near ; So light to the croupe the fair lady he swung, So light to the saddle before her he sprung ! — ' She is won ! we are gone, over bank, bush, and scaur ; They 'll have fleet steeds that follow, 'quoth young Lochinvar.
96 ページ - And bring all Heaven before mine eyes. And may at last my weary age Find out the peaceful hermitage, The hairy gown and mossy cell, Where I may sit and rightly spell Of every star that heaven doth shew, And every herb that sips the dew, Till old experience do attain To something like prophetic strain.
