The Hare Hunter.
A Burlesque imitation of various parts of Milton’s
L’Allegro and Il Penseroso.

Lo I, who erst, at break of day,

To Nelston Wiggs[51] betook my way,

Alarming all the country round

With barbarous shout and yelping hound;

And many a fox in vain pursued

To Bardon Hill[51] or Button Wood;

And oft returned in evening dark
