More Quotes from Charles Lamb:
Oh, ever thus, from childhood's hour, I 've seen my fondest hopes decay I never loved a tree or flower But 't was the first to fade away. I never nurs'd a dear gazelle, To glad me with its soft black eye, But when it came to know me well And love me, it was sure to die.Charles Lamb
