synonyms (from J. Byron's poem "Child Harold", Canto the
first)

Whilome in Albion's isle there dwelt a youth, Who ne in virtue's ways did take delight; But spent his days in riot most uncouth, And vex'd with mirth the drowsy ear of Night. Ah, me! In sooth he was a shameless wight, Sore given to revel and ungodly glee; Few earthly things found favour in his sight Save concubines and carnal companie, And flaunting wassailers of high and low degree.

Childe Harold was he hight: — but whence his name

And lineage long, it suits me not to say;

Suffice it, that perchance they were of fame,

And had been glorious in another day...

Adieu, adieu/ My native shore

Fades o'er the waters blue;

The night-winds sigh, the breakers roar,

And shrieks the wild sea—mew.

Yon sun that sets upon the sea

We follow in his flight;

Farewell awhile to him and thee,

My native Land — Good night!
