THE SEVEN STARS: A CONSTELLATION OF SCOTTISH POETS: SCOTT by JANET HAMILTON

First Line: HE SUNG OF FEUDAL HALLS AND TOWERS
Last Line: BRIGHT IN THEIR NATIVE RADIANCE BEAMING.
Subject(s): POETRY & POETS; SCOTLAND;
He sung of feudal halls and towers,
Of knights and chiefs in olden story;
Of beauteous dames in tapestried bowers;
High chivalry and deeds of glory.

The heaven of song is studded o'er
With puny twinklers, faintly gleaming;
But these shall shine for evermore,
Bright in their native radiance beaming.
