Memoir of his father, after quoting Lamb's short note of 12th September, adds :- "Not many weeks after, Lamb died. He had borrowed of my father Phillips's Theatrum Poetarum Anglicanorum, which was returned by Lamb's friend, Mr. Moxon, with the leaf folded down at the account of Sir Philip Sydney.
Mr. Cary acknowledged the receipt of the book by the following
LINES TO THE MEMORY OF CHARLES LAMB.
"So should be, my gentle friend;
Thy leaf last closed at Sydney's end.
Thou, too, like Sydney, wouldst have given The water, thirsting and near heaven; Nay, were it wine, filled to the brim,
Thou hadst look'd hard, but given, like him.
"And art thou mingled then among Those famous sons of ancient song? And do they gather round, and praise Thy relish of their nobler lays? Waxing in mirth to hear thee tell
With what strange mortals thou didst dwell! At thy quaint sallies more delighted,
Than any's long among them lighted!
""Tis done and thou hast joined a crew To whom thy soul was justly due; And yet, I think, where'er thou be, They'll scarcely love thee more than we."
