EPIGRAPH: I sing of News, and all those vapid sheets
The rattling hawkers vend through gaping-streets;
Whate'er their name, whate'er the time they fly,
Damp from the press, to charm the reader's eye.

EPIGRAPH: But when return'd the youth? — the youth no more
Return'd exulting to his native shore;
But forty years were past, and then there came
A worn-out man.
