"Oh, what a tangled web we weave,
When first we practise to deceive!
A Palmer too!-no wonder why
I felt rebuked beneath his eye:
I might have known there was but one
Whose look could quell Lord Marmion."

I love quotations related to lace and thought it might be interesting. My
favourite still is " Oh, what tangled webs we weave when first we try to
deceived." I think he was watching a lacemaker trying to cheat her way out
of trouble!!
