The vogue of leaving off your hat,

I with a crust that loathes the wind's caresses—

I should revolt at that.

But for the rest there's little strange;

Still Cam pursues his torpid way;

'Tis we alone who suffer change

(I could not stick the course to-day);

New generations lash the same old river,

Spurt up the Long Reach, bump and sup;

What if we pass, through weight of years or liver?
