Ev’n mighty Pam, that kings and queens o’erthrew,
And mow’d down armies in the fights of Loo,
Sad chance of war! now destitute of aid,
Falls undistinguish’d by the victor Spade!—
Pope’s Rape of the Lock, iii, 61-4.

[27] The word Newport is not stamped on this letter, as on Numbers [I], [II], and [IV]; but it is pretty evident that Keats and his friend were still at Shanklin.
