DEDICATION
TO * * *
What would our modern maids to-day?
I watch, and can't conjecture :
A dubious tale?—an Ibsen play?—
A pessimist Lecture?-
I know not. But this, Child, I know :
You like things sweet and seemly ;
Old-fashioned flowers, odd shapes in Bow,
"Auld Robin Gray" (extremely) ;
You —with my "Dorothy" —delight
In fragrant cedar-presses ;
In window-corners warm and bright,
In warm, and lilac dresses ;
You can still read, at any rate,
Charles Lamb and "Evelina" :--
To You, My Dear, I dedicate
This "STORY OF ROSINA.". First edition. Octavo, bound in original gilt-decorated red cloth, a fine bright copy.
