Note 100 — LIFE OF LORD BYRON. (continued 4)
Reading edition
See his lines on Major Howard, the son of Lord Carlisle, who was killed at Waterloo:—
"Their praise is hymn'd by loftier harps than mine; Yet one I would select from that proud throng, Partly because they blend me with his line, And partly that I did his sire some wrong."
Childe Harold, canto iii.
