The opening

CHAPTER I. D'HABERVILLE AND CAMERON OF LOCHIEL.

D’HABERVILLE AND CAMERON OF LOCHIEL.

Give me, oh! give me back the days When I—I too—was young, And felt, as they now feel, each coming hour, New consciousness of power....

The fields, the grove, the air was haunted, And all that age has disenchanted....

Give me, oh! give youth’s passions unconfined, The rush of joy that felt almost like pain.

The whole book is in the Sphinx app.
