They told how sea-fow^s pinions fail.As over Whitbys towers they sail.And, sinking down with flutterings faint.They do their homage to the Saint. Marmion. Flamborough Head is perhaps one of the most enjoyable places mEngland to the ornithologist, now that it is no longer a scene of slaughter.To this spot Mr. Keulemans went from London at my request; and Ihere set the results before the reader.
