4588 James Beattie 1735-1803 John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:4588
AUTHOR:James Beattie (1735–1803)
QUOTATION:Mine be the breezy hill that skirts the down,
Where a green grassy turf is all I crave,
With here and there a violet bestrewn,
Fast by a brook or fountain’s murmuring wave;
And many an evening sun shine sweetly on my grave!
ATTRIBUTION:The Minstrel. Book ii. Stanza 17.
