Text Appearing Before Image:
ory within a very limited space; or with so much eloquence bring beforethe mind the sad doom of the two lovers—the broken hearts of both. * It is this stanza that Fletcher quoted in The Knight of the Burning Pestle, whereMerrythought enters repeating it; altered somewhat, however, from the version of Dr. Percy,thus:— When it was grown to dark midnight, And all were fast asleep,In came Margarets grimly ghost, And stood at Williams feet! Part of a verse is also quoted, which does not appear in the ballad, but which it is more thanprobable belonged to it:— You are no love for me Margret,I am no love for you. As the stall copy, printed by Dr. Percy, was certainly subjected to some ingenious altera-tions, the original was, perhaps, as a whole, infinitely superior even to the fine composition ofwhich, only, we are at present possessed. It will be seen that the main incidents and the leadingfeatures are common to several ballads; and perhaps they were all derived from one great source.
