Question Romantic Period Painting?

Please help me identify a painting- I found a print of it in a book while doing research for a high school term paper (10 years ago, yikes!) on Tennyson. It very much brings to mind JW Waterhouse but is not one of his paintings (not that I can find, anyway).

Its a night scene of a woman in a light colored gown (maybe white) reclining atop a stone wall, or maybe in the window of a stone wall. She's looking out into the distance, at the stars, waiting for someone. Its very Romantic style. It was used as the illustration for a poem, which I'm also dying to find. It was a love poem, and I swear I remember Romeo and Juliet mentioned, though I'm certain it was not actually Romeo and Juliet.

I loved to painting and poem both so much that I paid for a photocopy to keep for myself and pinned it to my bedroom wall. Now I've lost the copy and can't remember the details. Please help!!

I came across a few that was close to your explanation of "Tennyson." Type in his name and "illustration pictures" on the google search engine. You might just find it.

Scroll down to Tennyson segment - surely one of those?
