It was the voice, at whose sweet flow               #4
            The heart did beat, and cheek did glow,
            And lip did smile, and eye did weep,
            And motioned love the measure keep.

            Oft be thy sound, soft gale of even,
            Thus to my wistful fancy given;
            And, as I list the swelling strain,
            The dead shall seem to live again!

                  Joanna Bailley
