Edward Farmer, A Selection of Original Songs, Scraps… (1846)
“ Written on the marriage of Lady Evelyn Gower with Lord Blantyre, 1849. Let the cannon's loud roar to the bells' tuneful peal, Tell forth in glad chorus, the joy that we feel: Let echo, with notes of delight, swell the choir, For the "Fair Maid of Trentham" is "Lady Blantyre." See Scotia's famed land of the mountain and wave, At the the shrine of our fairest hath yeilded her brave: Far blest above others, be ever that hour, When the blood of the Stewart was blent with the Gower. All hail to the Trentham! beneath whose proud dome, Meek pity and charity both find a home ”
