                    “Kilmeny looked up with a lovely grace,                    But nae smile was seen on Kilmeny’s face;                    As still was her look, and as still was her ee,                    As the stillness that lay on the emerant lea,                    Or the mist that sleeps on a waveless sea.                    .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .                    Such beauty bard may never declare,                    For there was no pride nor passion there;                    .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .                    Her seymar was the lily flower,                    And her cheek the moss-rose in the shower;                    And her voice like the distant melodye                    That floats along the twilight sea.”                                               — The Queen’s Wake                                                             JAMES HOGG
