Manuscript verses: A Valentine from Captain Bennett to Mrs Wyndham, 1818'
Description
Text of opening stanza of DF-V-133
"Hail! genial season of the year
To faithful lovers ever dear
Devoted be this day to praise
My Anna’s charms in rustic lays
Now billing sparrows, cooing doves
Remind each youth of her he loves
My heart and head are both on flame
Whene’er I breath my Anna’s name"
