The expression, "whirligig of Time," is borrowed from Shakespeare, "Twelfth Night" (act v. sc. ult,).

"Lady Clare." This poem originally opened thus:

We have already seen that the ballad of "Lady Clare" was suggested by Miss Ferrier's novel of "The Inheritance."

"The Lord of Burleigh." Unaltered.
