Pàgina 12 - Wo was the hour— for never more That hapless Countess e'er was seen ! And in that Manor now no more Is cheerful feast and sprightly ball ; For ever since that dreary hour Have spirits haunted Cumnor Hall. The village maids, with fearful glance, Avoid the ancient moss-grown wall ; Nor ever lead the merry dance, Among the groves of Cumnor Hall. Full many a traveller oft hath sighed. And pensive wept the Countess' fall, As wandering onwards they've espied The haunted towers of Cumnor Hall.

Pàgina 174 - Perfume for a lady's chamber ; Golden quoifs and stomachers, For my lads to give their dears: Pins and poking-sticks of steel. What maids lack from head to heel: Come buy of me, come; come buy, come buy; Buy, lads, or else your lasses cry : Come buy.

Pàgina 12 - And many a boding seems to say, •' Countess, prepare, thy end is near ! ' " Thus sore and sad that lady grieved, In Cumnor Hall, so lone and drear ; And many a heartfelt sigh she heaved, And let fall many a bitter tear. And ere the dawn of day...
