　　TO MY FRIEND THE INDICATOR

　　(1820)

　　Your easy Essays indicate a flow,

　　Dear Friend, of brain which we may elsewhere seek;

　　And to their pages I, and hundreds, owe,

　　That Wednesday is the sweetest of the week.

　　Such observation, wit, and sense, are shewn,

　　We think the days of Bickerstaff returned;

　　And that a portion of that oil you own,

　　In his undying midnight lamp which burned.

　　I would not lightly bruise old Priscian's head,

　　Or wrong the rules of grammar understood;

　　But, with the leave of Priscian be it said,

　　The Indicative is your Potential Mood.

　　Wit, poet, prose-man, party-man, translator—

　　H[unt], your best title yet is INDICATOR. The Works of Charles and Mary Lamb — Volume 4
