Alternate Author Name(s): Hamilton, Janet Thompson
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.
