MY FELLOW TRAVELLER,

THESE PAGES,

DESCRIPTIVE OF THE SCENES WE VISITED TOGETHER,

ARE AFFECTIONATELY

Dedicated,

BY

HER HUSBAND,

THE AUTHOR.

“Up, up! let us a voyage take;
Why sit we here at ease?
Find us a vessel tight and snug,
Bound for the Northern Seas."

He. "Dost thou love wandering?

Whither would'st thou go?
Dream'st thou, sweet daughter,
Of a land more fair?

Speak, mine own daughter

With the sunbright locks!

To what pale banish'd region
Would'st thou roam?"

She. "O father, let us find

Our frozen rocks,

Let's seek that country

Of all countries!"

He. "Why, then, we'll go."

W. HOWITT.

She. "On, on! Let's pass the swallow as he flies!"
