Not illustrated. 1919. Excerpt: ... Canto III 101 Full sail we fly! How quickly veered! Look, for our fury's to be feared! While hoarse winds groan our rigging through, The moon in streaks the waves illumes; The sea a silvery shade with blue, In gentle motion raised, assumes. 102 In Walter Savage Landor's Vale, We pause and read a wondrous tale--In lofty thought, which shall remain; His name engraven by his hand--Harsh criticisms, not sustained, Shall not, with all their blazonry, stand. 103 We find a valley few have seen, Where voyagers have rarely been, Where love is warm and youth is young, In H.
