"Æs triste ingeminat cedentis signa diei."
3. By Gilbert Wakefield, in his "Poemata partim scripta, partim
reddita." Cambridge, 1776:--
"Vesper adest, lugubre sonat Campanula; tardis."
4. By C.A. et W.H.R. [C. Anstey and W.H. Roberts.] 4to. London,
1778:--
"Ingeminat signum occiduæ Campana diei."
5. The last-mentioned version originally appeared anonymously in a
somewhat different form (4to. Cantab. 1762), the first line
being:--
"Audin' ut occiduæ signum Campana diei."
6. An anonymous version, "by a member of the University of
Cambridge," printed with the French translation of M. Guedon de
Berchere, mentioned below. I have no copy, and do not know the
opening line.
7. By S.N.E. 4to. London, 1824. Query, the name of the author. It
may perhaps appear on the title-page, which is wanting in my
copy:--
"Triste sonans, lentè tinnit campana per agros."
