    EXCURSION TO BRIGHTON A VISIT TO TUNBRIDGE WELLS AND A TRIP TO SOUTHEND BY JOHN EVANS, LL, D. INTRODUCTION. Brighton I thou loveliest neighbour of the wave, Whose stately cliffs the rolling surges lave, " Where roseate Health amid the breezes plays, Whose gentle breathings cool the fervid rays Of scorching summer " pleasing, gay retreat, JBeauty and Fashions ever favourite seat; Where splendour lays its cumbrous pomp aside. Content in softer, simpler paths to glide. Where in succession various pastimes sport, WhereNATURE's grand and simple beauties court " Where every taste may find a charm to please. If fond of the sublime" rthe surging Seas, Their vast floods rolling on the sounding shores. When the bold wind unfolds the billowy stores. Will lift, with solemn awe, the wondering soul To Him who bade those mighty waters roll : Or if in simpler scenes thou findst delight. The Country round thy devious steps invite. To mount the uplands, or the daisied plains. To trace and list, while birds their melting strains, Of youthful day enamour'd, sweetly trill. While snowy flocks adorn the fragrant hill ! How sweet the seagirt shore to pace along. What time the lark begins her matin song, When the mild moon her regency declines. And to the glorious sun the reign resigns. While the blue waves, rejoicing in the light. Reflect the golden smiles that chase away the night ! Brighton, a Poem, by nfary Lloyd, N. B. The Frontispiece, taken from a Draw- ing made on the spot for this work, is engraved by Mr. Adlard, a young and promising Artist, with neatness and fidelity.

If citing, you are advised to consult the published version for pagination, volume/issue and date of publication Changing Landscapes? Land, People and Environment in England, AD 350–600 Stephen Rippon Introduction: Moving Beyond Traditional Compartmentalisations of the Past The traditional view is that Roman Britain ended relatively abruptly and decisively in the early fifth century: its market-based economy collapsed, its towns and military installations became deserted and its villa estates abandoned (e.g. Faulkner 2000). The archaeological record has been seen to suggest a clear break, with material culture and architectural styles that had been strongly influenced by the Roman world replaced, especially in the eastern half of the former province, by new forms of artefacts, settlements and burial practice introduced by Anglo-Saxon migrants from the mid-fifth century onwards. In part, this view of what happened in the fifth century reflects the meagre documentary sources that exist for this period, and the Anglo-Saxon supremacy that was eventually achieved, although we must remember that texts are written by particular people with particular agendas, and stressing chaos and defeat on the part of British communities suited many of those writing about this period (even the sixth-century Briton Gildas who bemoaned the state of native society).

Speaking now of the present work, I would point out that chronologically it holds a place prior to any existing works on English Constitutional History, becausc it treats of a period of history prior to any that has been yet undcrtaken.
