Contains 'In imitation of Cowper', and 'An effusion of sorrow, in
imitation of Dr. Young'. Mary Ward of Brixham, Devon, dedicates her book
to the Countess of Loudon and Moira. Her subscritption list is a modest
one, but she seems to have some link with Rathby Hall, the seat of Robert
Carr Brackenbury. |
Epigraph |
-
At lustre or renown let others aim,
-
I only wish to please the gentle mind,
-
Whom nature’s charms inspire, and love of human kind.
