There are raven ghosts, great black bundles of feathers, for ever in the forest, night-hunting in famine for prey, emitting a last feeble croak at the blush of dawn, and then all at once invisible.

— ‘Celtic superstition’

cited by John Wilson (1785–1854)

in Recreations of Christopher North (1842)
