I will mention for the sake of the friend who is writing down 
      these notes, that it was among the fine Scotch firs near 
      Ambleside, and particularly those near Green Bank, that I have 
      over and over again paused at the sight of this image. Long may 
      they stand to afford a like gratification to others!--This wish is 
      not uncalled for, several of their brethren having already 
      disappeared.

        "The fears and impatience of Mary were so great," says 
      Robertson, "that she got into a fisher-boat, and with about twenty 
      attendants landed at Workington, in Cumberland; and thence she was 
      conducted with many marks of respect to Carlisle." The apartment 
      in which the Queen had slept at Workington Hall (where she was 
      received by Sir Henry Curwen as became her rank and misfortunes) 
      was long preserved, out of respect to her memory, as she had left 
      it; and one cannot but regret that some necessary alterations in 
      the mansion could not be effected without its destruction.
