The Shakspeare Calendar, 1850: Or Wit and Wisdom for Every Day in the Year (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Shakspeare Calendar, 1850: Or Wit and Wisdom for Every Day in the Year

To her I dedicate this little book, Whose kindling fancy and whose sparkling wit Do more than aught of mine embellish it, And shed a magic charm where'er you look: To her whose fond affection could not brook That I should such a joyless worker be As not to share her tender sympathy, But for my sake more genial tasks forsook, And with a patient, cheerful diligence, Scanned the dim records of the mighty Past.
