'I have since been reading in The Lady of the Lake, and this passage reminds me of our voyage: — "See the proud pipers on the bow, And mark the gaudy streamers flow From their loud chanters down, and sweep The furrow'd bosom of the deep, As, rushing through the lake amain, They plied the ancient Highland strain."'
