Is the departing spirit of the place.

Hers is the last of all that noble blood, 10

That flow’d through generations brave and good;

And, if there dwells a native pride in her,

It is the pride of name and character.

True, she will speak, in her abundant zeal,

Of stainless honour; that she needs must feel;

She must lament, that she is now the last

Of all who gave such splendour to the past.

Still are her habits of the ancient kind;
