She stood breast-high amid the corn
Clasped by the golden light of morn,
Like the sweetheart of the sun,
Who many a glowing kiss had won.

Additional quotes by Thomas Hood

Alas! for the rarity
Of Christian charity
Under the sun!

Ben Battle was a soldier bold, And used to war's alarms;
But a cannon-ball took off his legs, So he laid down his arms.

One more Unfortunate,
Weary of breath,
Rashly importunate,
Gone to her death! Take her up tenderly,
Lift her with care;
Fashion'd so slenderly
Young, and so fair!

She stood breast-high amid the corn Clasped by the golden light of morn, Like the sweetheart of the sun, Who many a glowing kiss had won. - Thomas Hood
