I Think If She Lived

In The Time Of Swords And Periwigs And Full-skirted Coats With Flowered Lappets - When Gentlemen Wore Ruffles, And Gold-laced Waistcoats Of Paduasoy And Taffeta - There Lived A Tailor In Gloucester.

The Place Is Changed Now, And Many Familiar Faces Are Gone, But The Greatest Change Is Myself. I Was A Child Then, I Had No Idea What The World Would Be Like. I Wished To Trust Myself On The Waters And The Sea. Everything Was Romantic In My Imagination. The Woods Were Peopled By The Mysterious Good Folk. The Lords And Ladies Of The Last Century Walked With Me Along The Overgrown Paths, And Picked The Old Fashioned Flowers Among The Box And Rose Hedges Of The Garden.

Thank Goodness My Education Was Neglected.
