ADDRESSED TO ELEANOR COLVILLE

Think of dying at 16

Two hundred years ago

Leaving to posterity

A letter sent you 

By your aunt, a semi-

Famous writer telling you

A humorous story 

About a christening.

This letter, a hundred years on,

Her great-niece will put

In a collection, completing 

A chain of aunts and nieces.
