No more through Ida's path we stray;

Soon must I share the gloomy cell,

Whose ever-slumbering inmates dwell

Unconscious of the day.

Adieu, ye hoary Regal Fanes,

Ye spires of Granta's vale,

Where learning robed in sable reigns,

And melancholy pale.

Ye comrades of the jovial hour,

Ye tenants of the classic bower,
