The Pet Lamb
A PASTORAL

THE dew was falling fast, the stars began to blink;
I heard a voice; it said, 'Drink, pretty creature, drink!'
And, looking o'er the hedge, before me I espied
A snow-white mountain-lamb with a Maiden at its side...

William Wordsworth 1800
Published c1867 London: Milner and Sowerby, Paternoster Row.

Ah, an old book! A great idea! =)

As a library and information science teacher I should have thought about it!

Ahhh when I first saw the challenge I thought of this and I have a fine example. Then I forgot! This is a great example. This book was not forgotten. Great choice

C 'est un bon choix ! Wordsworth en tant que poète est immortel. On lit toujours Homère ! ( hélas de moins en moins , car les élèves trouvent l ' Iliade et l 'Odyssée , trop difficile à comprendre....)

What a pleasant posting for the challenge Gillian. Books become good friends and even years after the first reading still evoke our first thoughts regarding the words. Nice presentation and thank you for sharing this with us. :)
