And its face to the sea, The old Manor homestead, Blends harmoniously With its rural surroundings: ( The joy and the pride Of true lovers of England's Far famed countryside.

In many a conflict, On land and on sea, Where the Yoemen of England Fought to be free. Many old English houses,, Alas are no more,, Which adds to their «spoilers j Retributive score.

SEIIGANT..
