—MERIVALE.

“Yes, thou goest, Spirit—yes, In thy paleness, nakedness— Mirth is banished, Jest hath vanished Into gloom and dreariness.”

—CARNARVON.

“Wee wan’erin’ winsome elf, my saul, Thou’s made this clay long hoose an’ hall, But whar, oh whar art now to dwall, Thy bield now bare? Gaun’ flickterin’ feckless, shiverin’ caul, Nae cantrips mair.”
