P. 8
As I stroll the city, ost I
Spy a building large and losty,
Not a bow-shot from the College,
Half a globe from sense and knowledge. By the prudent architect
Placed against the church direct; Making good my grandam’s jest,
Near the church – you know the rest.
(A Character, Panegyric, and Description of the Legion Club, ll. 1-8)
And Jesus asked him, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him (Luke. viii. 30.)
