The Poetical Works of Winthrop Mackworth Praed, Vol. 2 of 2 (Classic Reprint)Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Winthrop Mackworth Praed, Vol. 2 of 2 Are hurrying to the County Ball. Avaunt! I tread on haunted ground, And giddy Pleasure draws around, To Shield us from thine envious spite, Her magic circle! N ought to-night Over that guarded barrier flies But laughing lips and smiling eyes; My look shall gaze around me free, And like my look my line shall be; While fancy leaps in every vein, While love is life, and thought is pain.
