GERTHA'S LOVERS
[Verse extracted from the prose narrative.]
[All thoughts, all passions, all delights]
All thoughts, all passions, all delights,Whatever stirs this mortal frame,
All are but ministers of love,
And feed his sacred flame.
CHAPTER I. BY THE RIVER.
179
[“The King rode out in the morning early]
[Gertha.]“The King rode out in the morning early,
Went riding to hunting over the grass;
Ere the dew fell again that was then bright and pearly,
O me! what a sorrow had come to pass!”

[“The King rode out in the morning early]
[A Knight.]“The King rode out in the morning early,
Went riding to hunting over the grass;
Ere the dew fell again which was then round and pearly,
O me! what a sorrow had come to pass.”
