Set some box edging round a border which I have made for my collection of ferns read some passages in Blair's Grave a beautiful poem & one of the best things after the manner of Shakespear its beginning is very characteristic of the subject there are crowds of beautiful passages about it who has not markd the following aged companions to many such spots of general decay ...
a row of reverend elms,
Long lashd by the rude winds.
Some rift half down
. . . others so thin atop
That scarce two crows could lodge in the same tree.
