Chapter XLIV

_Poetical Works_, vol. iii. (Longmans, 1838). This is number xxxiii. of the ‘Inscriptions.’

XLV-XLVII

The first two were published with _Gertrude of Wyoming_ (1809). The first (written at Altona during the winter of 1800-1) is based on a seventeenth-century song which Campbell used to sing. As to the second (written in 1805), I omit stanzas 5, 6, and 8, an improvement suggested by Mr. Henley. The third appeared in _Theodoric and Other Poems_ (Longmans, 1824).
