Our search buttons on the right offer to sort by "Author or Creator." By "creators," we mean not simply authors of texts (criticism, poetry, essays, books), but also editors, publishers, painters, engravers, and even architects. Sometimes pictures of the latters' buildings were engraved as plates in literary annuals. This page will automatically give you creators listed alphabetically by type. You may limit or further organize your search, if you wish, using buttons on the right. Anonymous productions appear at the end of this list.

To a Friend,
On Sending a Fancy Drawing, After Promising Her Own Picture
in the Character of a Gypsey
By Lady Caroline
Lamb
THE glowing tints beneath thy care
Have traced a form divinely fair,
Have given it charms and beauties rare,
And shown the power of art;
But in the ideal head I trace,
No features of the gypsey's face,
The living smile, the nameless grace,
That nature doth impart.
Here roving looks, and eyes of fire,
Awake the soul of young desire; —
The spells — which Beauty may inspire,
By thee are well exprest.
But soon the varying tints will fade,
And time with leaden hand shall shade,
The colours that once vivid played
In thy bright eye and breast!
So hope that paints our morning sky,
When viewed with youth's unclouded eye;
So pleasures airy dreams must fly
O'erpowered with care and gloom.
For life's a fearful passing dream,
And those that gay and thoughtless seem,
Alike sail down its swelling stream
To meet the general doom.
