the most eminent and remarkable Persons who have
been born, or have resided there. Illustrated by Se-
venteen Engravings (on Thirteen Plates). By JOHN
NELSON.

"Old ISELDON, tho' scarce in modern song

Nam'd but in scorn, may boast of honour'd days;
For
many a darling child of Science there

Hath trimm'd his lamp, and wove his laurel crown.
And ISELDON, as ancient records tell,

In distant time as now, had much to boast
Of other praise, in Nature's bounty rich.
For thither, then, from London's hectic town
Her fam'd chalybeates oft allur'd the sick:
Her fresh lactarian draughts the babe sustain'd.

Fox.
