Spangling the wave with lights as vain
As pleasures in the vale of pain,
That dazzle as they fade.


Canto I, stanza 23. - The Lord of the Isles (1815)


Spangling the wave with lights as vain As pleasures in the vale of pain, That dazzle as they fade.

Spangling the wave with lights as vain As pleasures in the vale of pain, That dazzle as they fade.

Spangling the wave with lights as vain As pleasures in the vale of pain, That dazzle as they fade.

Spangling the wave with lights as vain As pleasures in the vale of pain, That dazzle as they fade.
