tell us that he was a wanderer here in October also." (H. D. Rawnsley.)


XXII
TRADITION[FZ]

A love-lorn Maid, at some far-distant time,

Came to this hidden pool, whose depths surpass

In crystal clearness Dian's looking-glass;

And, gazing, saw that Rose, which from the prime

Derives its name, reflected as the chime

Of echo doth reverberate some sweet sound:
