CAPTIVITY—MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS[373]
Composed 1819.—Published 1819
One of the "Miscellaneous Sonnets."—Ed.
"As the cold aspect of a sunless way
Strikes through the Traveller's frame with deadlier chill,
Oft as appears a grove, or obvious hill,
Glistening with unparticipated ray,
Or shining slope where he must never stray;
So joys, remembered without wish or will,
