I leave it to yoursel’s to mend,

That chance the peur man need again;

If it be ill penn’d it is well kend,

I got as little for my ‘pain.’


STANZAS,
Addressed to Northumbria.

Old Janus advances all cloathed in white,

And his long-smother’d tempests sends forth;

On the mountains cold bosom, as black as the night,

Sinks the dark rolling clouds of the north.
