Literature

Lucy and Colin A ballad by Thomas Tickell, translated into Latin by Vincent Bourne. Colin forsook Lucy of Leinster for a bride "thrice as rich." Lucy felt that she was dying, and made request that she might be taken to the church at the time of Colin's wedding. Her request was granted, and when Colin saw Lucy's corpse, "the damps of death bedewed his brow, and he died." Both were buried in one tomb, and to their grave many a constant hind and plighted maid resort to "deck it with garlands and true-love knots." Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
