Letitia Elizabeth Landon - Around his neck a ribbon...

Around his neck a ribbon clung,
Close to his heart a picture hung :
I saw the face - it was not mine ;
I saw, too, a small dagger shine,
A curious toy - you know the rest. (Letitia Elizabeth Landon)

Around his neck a ribbon clung, Close to his heart a picture hung : I saw the face - it was not mine ; I saw, too, a small dagger shine, A curious toy - you know the rest.
