Analysis of Ved Borgen Ravenswood i Skotland
Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)
Hvor Klippen springer i Søen ud
Med Bøgeskov og med Epheuranker,
Lucie og Edgar af Ravenswood
Gaae svævende frem i vore Tanker;
De stige fra Borgens faldne Muur,
Hvor Tidslen groer, og hvor Maagen skriger
Rundt om den store, den frie Natur,
Og Havet, som synker, og Havet, som stiger!
Fortæl, du Plet, om de elskende To:
Skotlands Julie og Romeo.
