Genevieve, 1842. 'All thoughts, all passions, all delights, Whatever stirs this mortal frame, All are but ministers of Love, And feed his sacred flame. Oft in my waking dreams do I Live o'er again that happy hour, When midway on the mount I lay, Beside the ruined tower'. From "The Book of British Ballads", edited by S. C. Hall, vol. I, p. 175, [London: Jeremiah How, 1842-44]
