A hardy Girl continues to provide;

Who, mounting fearlessly the rocky heights,

Her Father's prompt attendant, does for him

All that a boy could do, but with delight

More keen and prouder daring; yet hath she,

Within the garden, like the rest, a bed

For her own flowers and favourite herbs, a space,

By sacred charter, holden for her use.

—These, and whatever else the garden bears

Of fruit or flower, permission asked or not,
