Comment on the peculiarities of the words and forms marked

Or let me die.'QN. Wordsworth)

synonyms (from J. Byron's poem "Child Harold", Canto the
first)
Whilome in Albion's isle there dwelt a youth, Who ne in virtue's ways did take delight; But spent his days in riot most uncouth, And vex'd with mirth the drowsy ear of Night. Ah, me! In sooth he was a shameless wight, Sore given to revel and ungodly glee; Few earthly things found favour in his sight Save concubines and carnal companie, And flaunting wassailers of high and low degree.

Childe Harold was he hight: but whence his name
And lineage long, it suits me not to say;
Suffice it, that perchance they were of fame,
And had been glorious in another day...
Adieu, adieu/ My native shore
Fades o'er the waters blue;
The night-winds sigh, the breakers roar,
And shrieks the wild seamew.
Yon sun that sets upon the sea
We follow in his flight;
Farewell awhile to him and thee,
My native Land Good night!

And days ' lang syne?

We 'II tak a cup 'kindness yet,
For auld lang syne...
And here's a hand, my trusty fiere,
And gie 's a hand ' thine;
And we 'II tak a right guid willie-waught
For auld lang syne.
