MUSICAL AND LITERARY MISCELLANY.
109
On his cap, where the buckle
And rosary blaze.
The maid from her lattice
Looks down on the lake,
To see the foam sparkle
The bright billows break ;
And to hear in his boat.
Where he shines like a star,
Her lover so tenderly
Touch his guitar.
She opens her lattice.
And sits in the glow
Of moon-light and star-light
A statue of snow ;
And she sings in a voice
That is broken with sighs,
And she darts on her lover
The light of her eyes.
His " love-speaking pantomime"
Tells her his soul — •
How wild in the sunny clime
Hearts and eyes roll !
She waves with her white hand
Her white fazzolet.
And her burning thoughts flash
From her eyes living jet.
The moon-light is hid
In a vapour of snow !
Her voice and her rebeck
Alternately flow;
Re echoed the swell
From the rock to the hill
They sing their farewell.
And the music is still.
