TO THE
RIGHT HONOURABLE
LADY STAFFORD,
OF COSSEY HALL, NEAR NORWICH.
       Madam,
When I had the honour of addressing your Ladyship on a very different subject from the present, You graciously returned an answer replete with benevolent kindness; emboldened by this, I again solicited your favour, ​and informed your Ladyship of my real motives for publishing, and I now beg to offer my unfeigned thanks for the permission you have condescendingly granted me to dedicate my simple Poems to you.—Knowing, as I do, your Ladyship's opinion of any thing which might appear complimentary, I dare not express my grateful feelings in the language my heart would dictate; I therefore can only assure your Ladyship that, that heart must be cold and lifeless ere it ceases to remember with gratitude the flattering kindness you haye shewn me.
With fervent prayers for a long conti​nuance of health and happiness to your Ladyship and family, I have the honour to subscribe myself,
    Your Ladyship's gratefully obedient,
       And faithfully devoted servant,
          ADELINE MARTHA NEALDS.
    Wicklewood,
May 19th, 1829.
PREFACE.
When I first formed the design of publishing, I had planned a poetical tale of considerable length, but was compelled to relinquish my intention, finding that the incessant interruptions of five young children, added to domestic sickness, were great obstacles to literary composition. Many of the Poems in this little volume were written under these disadvantages, and I now must trust to the kindness of a generous ​public to overlook their numerous errors, and I send the work forth "with all its imperfections on its head;" but if the perusal of it should assist in passing away the tedious hours of the invalid, or chase away melancholy reflections for a while from the mind which is a prey to grief, I shall hope I have not written in vain.
