Under Green Leaves - Lullingsworth, drawn by S. Read, 1857. 'We extract from the new volume of poems, by Charles Mackay, with the suggestive and pleasant title of "Under Green Leaves", the following lines from the poem entitled "Lullingsworth", which has suggested to Mr. S. Read the beautiful design which we have this week engraved: "It is an ancient house: Four hundred years ago, Men dug its basements deep, And roof'd it from the wind; And held within its walls The joyous marriage feast, The christening, and the dance. Four hundred years ago They scoop'd and till'd the moat, Where now the rank weeds grow, And waterlilies vie In whiteness with the swans, A solitary pair That float, and feed, and float, Beneath the crumbling bridge And past the garden wall'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
