from The Princess
Sir Walter Vivian all a summer's day
Gave his broad lawns until the set of sun
Up to the people: thither flocked at noon
His tenants, wife and child, and thither half
The neighbouring borough with their Institute
Of which he was the patron. I was there
From college, visiting the son – the son
A Walter too – with others of our set,
Five others: we were seven at Vivian-place.
– Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1847)
