עמוד 97 - The Wicklow hills are very high, And so's the Hill of Howth, sir; But there's a hill, much bigger still, Much higher nor them both, sir: 'Twas on the top of this high hill St.
עמוד 100 - O ye spires of Oxford ! domes and towers ! Gardens and groves! your presence overpowers The soberness of reason; till, in sooth, Transformed, and rushing on a bold exchange, I slight my own beloved Cam, to range Where silver Isis leads my stripling feet; Pace the long avenue, or glide adown The stream- like windings of that glorious street — An eager Novice robed in fluttering gown ! 1810.
