As I...
Seite 22 - I was last this way a-fishing ; and the birds in the adjoining grove seemed to have a friendly 149 contention with an echo, whose dead voice seemed to live in a hollow tree, near to the brow of that primrose hill.

And the milk-maid's mother sung an answer to it which was made by Sir Walter Raleigh in his younger days.
