Excerpt

’d.

Thou noble tree who shelterest kind, The grave from winter’s snow and wind, May lightning never lay thee low, Nor archer cut from thee his bow; Nor Crispin peel thee, pegs to frame, But may thou ever bloom the same; A noble tree the grave to guard Of Cambria’s most illustrious bard!

LONDON: Printed for THOMAS J. WISE, Hampstead, N.W. Edition limited to Thirty Copies.
