EPIGRAPH: Twas in the middle of night, / To sleep young William tried, / When Mary's ghost came stealing in, / And stood at his bedside. / O William dear! O William dear! / My rest eternal ceases; / Alas! My everlasting peace / Is broken into pieces. / I thought the last of my cares / Would end with my last minute; / But though I went my long way home, / I didn't stay long in it.

And let us have a Lark instead.
