5117 Sir Walter Sott 1771-1832 John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:5117
AUTHOR:Sir Walter Scott (1771–1832)
QUOTATION:In peace, Love tunes the shepherd’s reed;
In war, he mounts the warrior’s steed;
In halls, in gay attire is seen;
In hamlets, dances on the green.
Love rules the court, the camp, the grove,
And men below and saints above;
For love is heaven, and heaven is love.
ATTRIBUTION:Lay of the Last Minstrel. Canto iii. Stanza 1.
WORKS:Sir Walter Scott Collection.
