Not illustrated. 1889 Excerpt: ...fairest! Fare-thee-weel, thou best and dearest! Thine be ilka joy and treasure, Peace, enjoyment, love, and pleasure! 20 Ae fond kiss, and then we sever; Ae farewell, alas! for ever! Deep in heart-wrung tears I 'll pledge thee, Warring sighs and groans I 'll wage thee! The Lea-Rig.
