The story upon which the following poem is founded I discovered in the shape of brief memoranda among papers to which I have had no cause to refer for some period. At this distance of time I am unable to say from what source I obtained them, but I believe I jotted down the plot from a note in an old review-being struck with its adaptability to verse.
It is possible that the note in question related to a metrical chronicle or the writings of a native poet, but I have not met with either; nor has the subject ever been attempted before in English to my knowledge.
The minor poems at the end are republished by permission from the St. James's, the Cornbill, and Macmillan's Magazines.
