And hark! the bell is ringing,

The engine puffs amain,

And through the dark towards Brighton

On shrieks the tearing train;

But turning off where Reigate

Unites the clustering lines,

By poultry-haunted Dorking

A devious course it twines,

By Wootton, Shier, and Guildford,

Across the winding Wey,
