Note 94 — Canto X.
Richard Francis Burton translation
95a. Not in Camoens. “And see yon twain from Britain’s foggy shore set forth dark Africk’s jungle-plain to span; thy furthest fount, O Nilus! they explore, and where Zaïré springs to seek the Main: The Veil of Isis hides thy land no more, whose ways wide open to the world are lain: They deem, vain fools! to win fair Honour’s prize:— This exiled lives, and that untimely dies. ↩
