Within these hated walls, again I mourn

A sullen prisoner, till the wish’d approach

Of joyous holiday or festive play

Releases me: ah! freedom that must end

With thee, declining Sol! All hail, ye sires

For sanctity renown’d, whose glorious names,

In large conspicuous characters pourtray’d,

Adorn the annual chronologic page

Of Wing or Partridge; oft, when sore opprest

With dire calamities, the glad return
