To steal the staff he put such trust in;

And make the puppy dance a jig,

When he began to quote Augustin.

Alack the change! in vain I look

For haunts in which my boyhood trifled;

The level lawn, the trickling brook,

The trees I climb'd, the beds I rifled:

The church is larger than before;

You reach it by a carriage entry;

It holds three hundred people more,
