TO LADY HOLLAND.
ON NAPOLEON'S LEGACY OF A SNUFF-BOX.
Gift of the Hero, on his dying day,To her, whose pity watch'd, 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.
