About the Sampler from Nicola Parkman:

"The sampler was most probably stitched in the latter decades of the 1800s.

The verse so diligently stitched on the sampler was written by Thomas Moore, an Irish poet, satirist, composer, and political propagandist. He was a close friend of Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley."
