- (I)'Twas a fine October evening,
In the vale where Anner flows,
Autumn's tint was on the leaves-
All fruit except the sloes
Were falling off the binding stem -
The sun had sank to rest
And scarce a babbling ripple stirred
Upon the river's breast. II
In that quiet and peaceful valley,
That river glides along,
An old and hoary ruin beside
Where oft the vassal's song,
Bisturbed the evening's stillness when
The rightful lord held away,
O'er acres broad extending there-
A stranger's claim to-day.(continues on next page)- Collector
