From this reading Oh would that your legions so tiny and taper, Would light on my pen and illumine my paper; Oh then might I sing lovely Hackfall thy praises, And paint all the beauties I found in thy mazes, Those mazes where nature and art have combin'd, To spread all the charms they together could find.
