PORTE DE LA MER. CALAIS.

THE last place where they stopped abroad was Calais, which, you know,
Belonged to England once—though that was many a year ago:
It has a beautiful old Tower, all weatherworn and brown,
And here's the Sea-Gate, opening from the walls that guard the town.
But now Farewell to Merry France! the vessel ready waits
To take our party back again across the Dover Straits.
