Analysis of This Little Bag
Jane Austen 1775 (Steventon Rectory, Hampshire) – 1817 (Winchester, Hampshire)
This little bag I hope will prove
To be not vainly made--
For, if you should a needle want
It will afford you aid.
And as we are about to part
T'will serve another end,
For when you look upon the Bag
You'll recollect your friend
