A woman standing outdoors on a cleared path, turned away from the viewer. She is holding
a book loosely behind her back. Her
head is tilted to her right, and she appears to be looking at the landscape garden
around the path. Full-page illustration contained
within a single-ruled rectangular border.
The Skylark.
“ Bird of the wilderness,1
Blithesome and cumberless,2
Sweet be thy matin o’er moorland and lea ;3
Emblem of happiness,4
Blest be thy dwelling-place,5
Oh, to abide in the desert with thee ! ”6
