I I want to ask the Wood," said Robin. She caught at a fold of the Duchess' dress and went on rapidly. "It is not far. Dr. Redcliff said I might go. Mrs. Bennett is there. She loves me." "Are you going to talk to Mrs. Bennett?" "No! No! No! No! Not to any one in the world."

The poem of the "Religious Musings" was not written "in the tap-room at Reading," nor till long after Mr. C. had quitted his military life. It was written partly at Stowey; partly on Redcliff Hill; and partly in my parlour, where both Mr. Coleridge and Mr. Southey occasionally wrote their verses.

"A garden and a garden door: after these a lane leading to Redcliff Street." "I must go, this moment." "And I?" She did not wait my answer, but running out into the passage, she came swiftly back with a heavy key. I open'd the window.

With a small party, consisting of convicts and their guards, he landed at Redcliff, now known as Humpy Bong, a peninsula which juts out into Moreton Bay a few miles above the mouth of the Brisbane.
