Charles Lamb - To Margaret W------ Charles Lamb - To Margaret W------
Work rating: Low


Margaret, in happy hour, Christen`d from that humble flower       Which we a daisy call! May thy pretty name-sake be In all things a type of thee,       And image thee in all. Like it you show a modest face, An unpretending native grace;       The tulip, and the pink, The china and the damask rose, And every flaunting flower that blows,       In the comparing shrink. Of lowly fields you think no scorn; Yet gayest gardens would adorn,       And grace, wherever set. Home-seated in your lonely bower, Or wedded a transplanted flower       I bless you, Margaret!
