_Daundelyon._--One of the earliest Queries kindly inserted in Vol. i.,
p. 92., requesting information regarding the legend and tradition of the
tenor bell at Margate, being still unanswered, be pleased to append as a
note the following lines from a descriptive poem called _The Margate
Guide_, 1797, by the late Mr. Zechariah Cozens, an esteemed local
antiquary, now buried within its sound:
"But on the north John Daundelyon lies,
Whose wondrous deeds our children yet surprise;
Still at his feet his faithful dog remains,
Who with his master equal notice claims;
For by their joint exertions legends tell,
They brought from far the ponderous tenor bell."
"_Note._--Concerning this bell the inhabitants repeat this
traditionary rhyme:
"John de Daundelyon with his great dog,
Brought over this bell upon a mill cog."
