TO LADY HOLLAND.
Reading edition
ON NAPOLEON'S LEGACY OP A SNUFF-BOX.
Gift of the Hero, on his dying day, To her, whose pity watched, for ever nigh; Oh! could he see the proud, the happy ray, This relic lights up on her generous eye, Sighing, he'd feel how easy 'tis to pay A friendship all his kingdoms could not buy.
Paris, July, 1821
