　　TO SAMUEL ROGERS, ESQ.

　　(1829)

　　Rogers, of all the men that I have known

　　But slightly, who have died, your Brother's loss

　　Touch'd me most sensibly. There came across

　　My mind an image of the cordial tone

　　Of your fraternal meetings, where a guest

　　I more than once have sat; and grieve to think,

　　That of that threefold cord one precious link

　　By Death's rude hand is sever'd from the rest.

　　Of our old Gentry he appear'd a stem—

　　A Magistrate who, while the evil-doer

　　He kept in terror, could respect the Poor,

　　And not for every trifle harass them,

　　As some, divine and laic, too oft do.

　　This man's a private loss, and public too. The Works of Charles and Mary Lamb — Volume 4
