"A warrior so bold and a maiden so bright / Conversed as they sat on the green. / They gazed at each other in tender delight. / Alonzo the brave was the name of the knight, / And the maid was the fair Imogene.
"Alas! ' said the youth, 'since tomorrow I go / To fight in a far distant land, / Your tears for my absence soon ceasing to flow, / Some other will court you, and you will bestow / On a wealthier suitor your hand.'
