Things I've found in collection items worth sharing

1. "Epitaph upon Robespierre", from William Thomas Fitzgerald's Miscellaneous poems (PR4705 .F33 1801 Cage)

   Passant! ne pleure pas mon sort--

   Si Je vivois, Tu serois mort.

   Stranger! forbear to grieve that I am dead,

   For were I living, You would lose your head.

2. "The Trap", by Thomas Gilliland, is "dedicated to the ladies." The dedication is signed, "I am, LADIES, with every respect and admiration for your sex, The Author."

3. PR3639.P8 P6 1809 Cage contains the posthumous poems of William Preston, Esq. See, he really was a time traveler!
