Letitia Elizabeth Landon

“ Many a high-born dame is there;
Dance their rich curls on the air,
Catching many a golden hue,
Catching many a pearl of dew;
Flush the colours on their cheek,
Lovelier than the morning's break ”

“ To make their name immortal: but of these
Is there one whose delight in memory
Can be like the young Lover’s?—’tis as life,
As hope, to know his image is secure,
Recall’d by all sweet thoughts in one fond heart. ”
