The Lady of the Lake



Ink drawing, colored digitally

With head upraised, and look intent,
And eye and ear attentive bent
And locks flung back, and lips apart
like a monument of Grecian art.
In listening mood, she seemed to stand
The guardian Naiad of the strand.

And ne'er did a Grecian trace,
A Nymph, A Naiad or a grace,
of finer form, or lovlier face!


~Sir Walter Scott
