Snowhill Manor
\nA 16th century country house
\nWhere once we know
\nA certain architect was living
\nA poet too
\nWho loved the flow
\nOf words and phrases
\nOf alliteration
\nAnd quietly he loved
\nThe old crafte
\nAlchemy and magic thrilled him
\nEven though some thought him daf’t<\/p>\n
Charles Paget Wade
\nHe travelled widely
\nCollecting like a raven he
\nLoved his objects every one of them
\nFascinated genuinely<\/p>\n
Samurai armour, clocks and candles
\nRitual magic was his thing
\nUp there in the witches garret
\nProphetic sightings he did bring
\nInto his reality his metapsychics
\nHis secret art
\nHe found all this stuff enchanting
\nHe seemed spellbound from the start<\/p>\n
In the house there still are symbols
\nMagically they are on the walls
\nMuch of it went to Boscastle
\nWashed away by the flooded falls
\nGhosts are said to walk
\nAt night times
\nA young women forced to wed
\nSomeone she was never fond of
\nAnd unhappily she has led
\nHer night times through
\nThe draughty garret
\nAlong with a monk so they say
\nAll those artifacts were present
\nAnd can be seen by you each day<\/p>\n
To this day some who visit
\nFeel the ambience of soul
\nThe weird uncanny manifeststions
\nAs if someone wants to control.
\nLocal stone grade 2 listed
\nBrewhouse dovecote and the wall
\nGate piers and 4 manor cottages
\nThe homage he paid to it all<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
