“Whose was that voice?” “In wonder tost,The softly-breath'd reply I lost;
225
Of the new-wedded turtle-dove,
And intermix'd with many a sigh.
Again the well-known voice I heard,
‘O go not yet—one parting word,
One kiss, the last, before we die!’”
“Whose was that voice? Tempt me no more!
“Just then, my liege, upon the shore
Th' unshrouded moon-beams fell;
I saw a woman stately, fair,
Her face conceal'd by jetty hair,
Around the page her arms enfold—”
“Name her, or die!” “He left her hold,
And quickly fled across the wold,
And cried ‘Heaven shield thee, Isabel!’”
