The opening, in English.

'O bear me back to all to Memory dear, 'Twill to my faded brow be health restored To feel the breeze that waves the woods of Abbotsford.'

[Illustration: ABBOTSFORD FROM THE RIVER TWEED]

'Within that pile _he_ dwelt whose ardent soul Filled with bright dreams, and aspirations high, And boundless knowledge, wonder-chained the whole Of human kind, but turned its glorious eye Of love on Caledon's bleak hills and cloudy sky.'
