There were some sailors LORD BYRON. 121 '* in the fleet who swam further than I did — I do ^' not say than I could have done, for it is the '' only exercise I pride myself upon, being almost ^' amphibious. " I remember being at Brighton many years '^ ago, and having great difficulty in making the *' land, — the wind blowing off the shore, and the " tide setting out. Crowds of people were co...l- *' lected on the beach to see us. Mr. — — (I think '' he said Hobhouse) was with me ; and, " he added, '' I had great difficulty in saving him — he *' nearly drowned me. " When I was at Venice, there was an Italian '^ who knew no more of swimming than a camel, '' but he had heard of my prowess in the Darda- '^ nelles, and challenged me. Not wishing that '' any foreigner at least should beat me at my own '' arms, I consented to engage in the contest. " Alexander Scott proposed to be of the party, and " we started from Lido.
