“I declare this tower is my symbol; I declare
This winding, gyring, spiring treadmill of a stair is my ancestrail stair;
That Goldsmith and the Dean, Berkeley and Burke have travelled there.”

We chaired you through the market-place;
Man and boy stood cheering by,
And home we brought you shoulder-high.”
