Where she (my Pinnace now) in times before,

Was leafy woodling on Cytórean Chine

For ever loquent lisping with her leaves.

Pontic Amastris! Box-tree-clad Cytórus!

Cognisant were ye, and you weet full well

(So saith my Pinnace) how from earliest age

Upon your highmost-spiring peak she stood,

How in your waters first her sculls were dipt,
