1845, George M. Horton, “To Miss Tempe” in The Poetical Works of George M. Horton, Hillsborough, North Carolina: D. Heartt, p. 91,
Bless’d hope, when Tempe takes her last long flight,
And leaves her lass-lorn lover to complain,
Like Luna mantling o’er the brow of night,
Thy glowing wing dispels the gloom of pain.
