There is much that is immortal in this medieval lady. The dragons have gone$$$ and so have the knights$$$ but still she lingers in our midst. She reigned in many an early Victorian castle$$$ and was Queen of much early Victorian song.

In her heart also there are springing up strange desires. She too is enamoured of heavy winds$$$ and vast panoramas$$$ and green expanses of the sea.
