Note 101 — Chapter XLIX
Reading edition
"'T is blithe along the midnight tide, With stalwart arm the boat to guide— On high the dazzling blaze to rear, And heedful plunge the barbed spear; Rock, wood, and scaur, emerging bright, Fling on the stream their ruddy light, And from the bank our band appears Like Genii armed with fiery spears."[101]
