Dazzling stones shone in the deep
Like glint through glass, glowing and bright;
As streaming stars, when dalesmen sleep,
Flare in the welkin on winter night.

Pearl Poet

The precious adornment of down and dale,
Of wood and water and noble plain,
Brought me to bliss, made bitterness fail,
Allayed my distress, destroyed my pain.
Down by a stream of steady flow
I moved in bliss, my mind a-thrill,
And further along that river-land low,
The joy of my heart grew stronger still.

Pearl Poet

Alas! In a garden I lost it, let
It go to the ground on a grassy plot.
Bereft of love, I am racked by regret
For Pearl, my own Pearl without a spot.
