Through a country well known to him fifty miles round.

No hound ever open’d, with Tom near the wood,

But he’d challenge the tone, and could tell if ’twere good;

And all with attention would eagerly mark,

When he cheer’d up the pack, “Hark! to Rockwood, hark! hark!

High!—wind him! and cross him!

Now, Ratler, boy!—Hark!
