Shakespeare's England . alk in thefootsteps of renown, is full of interest. Dean Swiftonce had a house there, the site of which is still indi-cated. Popes rural home was in the adjacent villageof Twickenham, —where it may still be seen. HoraceWalpoles stately mansion of Strawberry Hill is not far 70 SHAKESPEARES ENGLAND chap, vi off. The poet Thomson long resided at Richmond, ina house now used as an hospital, and there he died.Edmund Kean and the once famous Mrs. Yates restbeneath Richmond church, and there also are the ashesof Thomson. As I drove through the sweetly sylvanPark of Richmond, in the late afternoon of a breezysummer day, and heard the whispering of the greatelms, and saw the gentle, trustful deer couched at easein the golden glades, I heard all the while, in the stillchambers of thought, the tender lament of Collins —which is now a prophecy fulfilled : Remembrance oft shall haunt the shore, When Thames in summer wreaths is drest;And oft suspend the dashing oar, To bid his gentle spirit rest.. Queen Elizabeths Cradle.
