THE LEGEND OF ST CUTHMAN.

"St Cuthman stood on a point which crowns

The entire range of the grand South Downs;

Beneath his feet, like a giant field,

Was stretched the expanse of the Sussex Weald.

'Suppose,' said the Saint,''twas the will of Heaven

To cause this range of hills to be riven,

And what were the use of prayers and whinings,
