Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence of M. G. Lewis, Vol. 2 of 2: With Many Pieces in Prose and Verse, Never Before Published Among the visiters at Oatlands, during the period to which Lewis alludes in the foregoing letters, were Lord Erskine, and the witty and accomplished Lady Anne Cullen Smith, with both of whom he was on terms of intimacy and friendship; and one evening, after dinner, these three amused themselves in writing what is not inaptly called "thread paper rhymes." It was commenced by the following impromptu of Lord Erskine, on returning Lewis´s pencil: "Your pencil I send you, with thanks for the loan; Yet writing for fame now and then, My wants I must still be content to bemoan, Unless I could borrow - your pen!"
