This lesson teaching, which our souls may strike,

That harmonies may be in things unlike!


[WRITTEN AT CAMBRIDGE.]

I was not train'd in Academic bowers,

And to those learned streams I nothing owe

Which copious from those twin fair founts do flow;

Mine have been anything but studious hours.

Yet can I fancy, wandering 'mid thy towers,

Myself a nursling, Granta, of thy lap;
