 | The Dramatic and Poetical Works of Joanna Baillie |  |
XLIV.
And Britain's virtuous Queen admiredOur gentle Maid, and in her train
Of ladies will'd her to remain;
What more could young ambition have desired?
But, like the blossom to the bough,
Or wall-flower to the ruin's brow,
Or tendril to the fost'ring stock,
Or sea-weed to the briny rock,
Or mistletoe to sacred tree,
Or daisy to the swarded lea
756
Nor cared for honours vain, from courtly favour sprung.
