The lordly ones
Who dwell in the hills,
In the hollow hills.

And on her lover's arm she leant,
And round her waist she felt it fold,
And far across the hills they went
In that new world which is the old:
Across the hills, and far away
Beyond their utmost purple rim,
And deep into the dying day
The happy princess follow'd him.

 
Alfred (Lord) Tennyson
