[Charles Agvent]

HOLMES, Oliver Wendell. AUTOGRAPH QUOTATION SIGNED (AQS) with a CABINET

written the third stanza of "Song. For A Temperance Dinner" and dated 
and SIGNED in full "Oliver Wendell Holmes" below.

Alas for the loved one, too spotless and fair
The joys of his banquet to chasten and share
Her eye lost its light that his goblet might shine
And the rose of her cheek was dissolved in his wine.

Photograph Fine; manuscript Very Good with a neatly repaired tear going 
through the quotation.
