Severa con se stessa
Indulgente per tutti

Buona paziente beneficente

Out upon Time! It will leave no more
Of the Days to come, than the Days before;
Out, out upon Time!

BYRON'S 'Siege of Corinth.'

SOME hours of old age and enforced leisure have been beguiled in once more correcting and arranging these family memorials. Let the original weakness of having printed them at all rest on the writer, and be buried with him—contented that if they have interested few, they have injured none. Such collections will rarely recur: kindred in modern days rather repels than attracts; 'tis a name, and no more: weighed in commercial scales against the "almighty dollar," it kicks the beam. 6 So mote it be.'

R. P. T.

OXON. 1872.
