Marmion and Douglas (from Marmion)

by Sir Walter Scott

Walter Scott’s ‘Marmion and Douglas’ is an extract from “Marmion” that focuses on the insightful conversation between Douglas and Marmion.

From turret to foundation-stone—

The hand of Douglas is his own;

And never shall in friendly grasp

The hand of such as Marmion clasp.’—
