How often, when a child I lay reclined, / I took delight in this locality! / Here stood the infant Ilion of the mind, / And here the Grecian ships did seem to be.
And here again I come and only find / The drain-cut levels of the marshy lea, / Gray sand banks and pale sunsets dreary wind, / Dim shores, dense rains, and heavy clouded sea.
