The Story of the Gardens at Hampton Court Palace
To Hampton palace, chearfully we came,
Which from the joining town derives its name;
With seats encompass'd, beautiful and fair,
Far fam'd for prospects and salubr-ous air:
Refresh'd - to view the gardens we proceed.
The walks extensive, free from ev'ry weed;
Thro' various paths, as fancy leads the way,
Pleas'd with the scenes, i from LEANDER stray,
Roam thro' each silent, solitary grove,
Some form'd for meditation, some for love
