told you plagued me so much, and he thinks it's one of the very best: it is 'All's well that ends well.'" Finally, we find on Jan. 29th, 1807, Charles writing to Wordsworth, "We have booked off from Swan and Two Necks, Lad Lane, this day (per coach), the 'Tales from Shakespeare.' . . . We think 'Pericles' of hers the best, and 'Othello' of mine; but I hope all have some good."
Charles Lamb died at Edmonton in 1834. Mary Lamb lived for some years after him, and dying in 1847, was buried by his side in Edmonton churchyard.
Besides the "Tales from Shakespeare," 1807, we have three tales by Charles in Mary Lamb's "Mrs. Leicester's School," 1808, and "Poetry for Children," which he wrote with her in 1809. The "Essays of Elia," 1823, and the "Last Essays of Elia," 1833, are his most precious books. How precious they are you will know when you read Elia's reverie upon Dream-Children, and his boyish "Recollections of Christ's Hospital."
