MONA'S SONG.

[_]

This poem has been extracted from a passage of prose text.

“In a castle by the sea,
Lives a lady of high degree;
She hath silver, she hath gold,

123

And a heart as hard and cold.
Prince Liber, Prince Liber
Will come o'er the sea!
“In her glittering marble halls,
There the silvery fountain falls;
In her dark and loathsome mines,
There no sunlight ever shines.
Prince Liber, Prince Liber
Will come o'er the sea.”
