Colonial Echo, 1903 . hring blow smoke-rings at the ceiling old. As the fire in the grate burns low,And there come from out of the North Wind cold Faint echoes of long ago. And my thoughts go back as I sit alone And watch the dying yearTo the student, who many years agone, To that young cavalierIn ruffles and hose and buckles fine. Dress-sword and jewelled he drank a toast in the good red wine, To the King! Long live the King! The echoes come faint down the ancient hall As their glasses clink together,And the candles light dispels the night. And the great log fire, the weather.
