Don Juan 03-030
Canto the Third

XXX
And further on a group of Grecian girls,
     The first and tallest her white kerchief waving,
Were strung together like a row of pearls,
     Link'd hand in hand, and dancing; each too having
Down her white neck long floating auburn curls
     (The least of which would set ten poets raving);
Their leader sang-and bounded to her song,
With choral step and voice, the virgin throng.

George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824)
