_Lithosia rubricollis_ (black)--Footman. [101] _Noctua chamomilla._--The moth attaches itself close to the edges of wood, as near its own colour as possible. [102] _Abraxas ulmaria._--Found abundantly in Yorkshire. [103] _Geometra genus._ [104] _Noctua exclamationis._ [105] _Geometra chaerophyllata._--All the moths called Chimney-sweeps are black, but the Chimney-sweep's boy is smaller than the others, and easily distinguished by the glossiness of its wings. [106] _Fumaria plumistra._ [107] _Geometra euphorbiata_, &c. [108] _Geometra thymiaria._--All collectors will recognise this as a very probable accident from the quantity of grease natural to moths, and which often destroys their finest specimens. The localities of these and other insects, with more particulars, may be found ably described in Mr. Samouelle's valuable work on Entomology. THE END. BRADBURY AND EVANS, PRINTERS. +------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | Transcriber's Notes: | | | | There is no indication from the original printing that the poem | | was broken into stanzas, unless every stanza happened to finish | | at the end of a page. The three plates in the body of the book | | were inserted close to the lines they illustrate; to minimise | | disruption to the flow of the poem these have here been moved to | | a sentence break near the illustrated lines. | | | | The plates in the body of the book all carry the same | | attribution as the frontispiece: | | _M. Gauci delt._ _Printed by C. Motte 23 Leicester Sqre._ | | | +------------------------------------------------------------------+ End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of The Emperor's Rout, by Unknown *** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK THE EMPEROR'S ROUT *** ***** This file should be named 24894.txt or 24894.zip ***** This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: http://www.gutenberg.org/
