How these great niountain walls | A |
Re echo See his dog | B |
Come limping from the bog | C |
How far he holds him | D |
With that thin clamour Scolds him | D |
Or cheers him which | E |
Say both most like The pitch | E |
Is steep poor fellow | F |
And still that bellow | F |
Ya ya | G |
Whoop ' tittivat | H |
And Echo from her niche | E |
Shrieks challenged Shout | H |
O shepherd flout | H |
The irritable Echo till she raves | I |
As man behaves | I |
So God apportions doing what is best | H |
For you and for the rest | H |
As man behaves You do not help me much | J |

You have but scant respect | H |
For Death Why sir he made a feint | H |
That very minute at you quaint | H |
The way he grins and skips Whips whips | P |
Down down good dog good Death | N |
To heel you rogue | Q |
Good Death good dog | B |
You'd rather not behold him | D |
I've told him I' faith | R |
He'd frighten you would Death | N |
Provoked me yes you did | H |
The shepherd chid | H |
His lagging hound | H |
I had no other thought | H |
But how mad Echo caught | H |
The sound | H |
Of that exasperant call | K |
And made it bound | H |
Back from the mountain wall | K |
