The wondering Stranger round him gazed, And next the fallen weapon raised; Digitized by Google THE LA.DY OF THR LAK.
» Few were the arms whose sinewy strength Sufficed to stretch it forth at length.
And as the brand he poised and swayed, "I never knew bnt one," he said, u Whose stalwart arm might brook to wield A blade like this in battle-field" She sighed, then smiled and took the word; "You see the guardian champion's sword* As light it trembles in his hand, As in my grasp a hazel wand; My si...re's tall form might grace the part Of Ferragns or Ascabart; But in the absent giant's hold Are women now and menials old." The mistress of the mansion came, Mature of age, a graceful dame; Whose easy step and stately port Had well become a princely court, To whom, though more than kindred knew, Young Ellen gave a mother's due.
Meet welcome to her guest she made, And every courteous rite was paid, That hospitality could claim, Though all unasked his birth and name.
Such then the reverence to a guest, That fellest foe might join the feast, And from his deadliest foeman's door Unquestioned turn, the banquet o'er.
