ing lines, placed there by the late earl:

"Here Rogers sat--and here for ever dwell
With me, those pleasures which he sang so well."

Beneath these are framed and glazed a copy of verses in honor of the same
poet, by Mr. Luttrell. There is also in the same garden, and opposite this
alcove, a bronze bust of Napoleon, on a granite pillar, with a Greek
inscription from the Odyssey, admirably applying the situation of Ulysses
to that of Napoleon at St. Helena: "In a far-distant isle he remains under
the harsh surveillance of base men."

The fine avenue leading down from the house to the Kensington road is
remarkable for having often been the walking and talking place of Cromwell
and General Lambert. Lambert then occupied Holland House; and Cromwell,
who lived next door, when he came to converse with him on state affairs,
had to speak very loud to him, because he was deaf. To avoid being
overheard, they used to walk in this avenue.

The traditions regarding Addison here are very slight. They are, simply,
that he used to walk, when composing his "Spectators," in the long
library, then a picture gallery, with a bottle of wine at each end, which
he visited as he alternately arrived at them; and that the room in which
he died, tho not positively known, is supposed to be the present
dining-room, being then the state bed-room. The young Earl of Warwick, to
whom he there address the emphatic words, "See in what peace a Christian
can die!" died also, himself, in 1721, but two years afterward. The estate
then devolved to Lord Kensington, descended from Robert Rich, Earl of
Warwick, who sold it, about 1762, to the Right Honorable Henry Fox,
afterward Lord Holland. Here the early days of the great statesman,
Charles James, were passed.

Such a vast architectural mass as Arundel Castle, implanted in Saxon,
Roman, and feudal military necessities, strikes its roots deep and wide.
The town appeared, in comparison, to be but an accidental projection on
the hillside. The walls grow out of the town as the trunks of a great tree
shoot forth from the ground--of a different growth, but an integral part
of it.

Topographically, Arundel has only a few features, yet they are fine enough
to form a rich ensemble. There is the castle, huge, splendid, impressive,
set like a grea
