    I have a dog of Blenheim birth,
    With fine long ears and full of mirth;
    And sometimes, running o'er the plain,
    He tumbles on his nose:
    But quickly jumping up again,
    Like lightning on he goes!

But in come canine Paradise
Your wraith, I know, rebukes the moon,
And quarters every plain and hill,
Seeking its master. . . . As for me
This prayer at least the gods fulfill
That when I pass the flood and see
Old Charon by Stygian coast
Take toll of all the shades who land,
Your little, faithful barking ghost
May leap to lick my phantom hand.

No blithe Irish lad was so happy as I;
No harp like my own could so cheerily play,
And wherever I went was my poor dog Tray.
