BY
THE REV. J. D., PARRY, M. A.
OF ST. PETER'S COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE.
Call up him that left half-told
The story of Cambusean bold;
Of Camball, and of Algarsife,"
And who had Canace to wife,
That owned the virtuous ring and glass;
And of the wondrous horse of brass,
On which the Tartar king did ride:
And if aught else, great Bards beside,
In sage and solemn tunes, have sung,
Of turneys, and of trophies hung;
Of forests, and enchantments drear,
Where more is meant than meets the ear.
