I: Lucilla lives in yon half-hidden star / Bowered in a dreamy, soft-skied, watery vale, / Where angels gather from bright worlds afar, / To see her face, and listen to her tale.
II: As if all sunset revelled in the air, / The rosy clouds float o'er her paradise,- / Home of the once lone daughter of despair / Who prayed through tears with ever downcast eyes.
