Text Appearing Before Image:
eover, a river at Monmouth. The opening passage of Dr. Percys ballad is very remarkable: In Ireland far over the sea. Now the superstition on which the ballad is constructed—the Eldridge Knight—is un-known in Ireland; and in fact not one of the incidents or allusions bear the remotestaffinity to Irish customs — ancient or modern. The concealed love of Sir Cauline forthe Lady Christabelle will remind the reader of the gentle Squyer of lowe degr§That lovd the kings daughter of Hungre. But the progress of the story, and its ultimate issue, are altogether different. There are,indeed, many instances among old romances of daring deeds achieved by cavaliers towin lady-love by gaining fame ; ( And be advisd when thou shalt fight,Look that ye stand aye in the right.) But to none of them can be traced the origin of this fine and beautiful production —which must, therefore, be recorded as the composition of Dr. Percy, — based upon a defective and mutilated copy of a very ancient poem.
