As lily fair, and as sweet to see;

Arise, Sir Knight, and follow me.

The stars streamed out, the new-woke moon

O’er Chatsworth hill gleamed brightly down,

And my love’s cheeks, half seen, half hid,

With love and joy blushed deeply red:

Short was our time, and chaste our bliss,

A whispered vow and a gentle kiss;

And one of those long looks, which earth

With all its glory is not worth.
