Mary Chandler : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mary Chandler Mary Chandler (1687–1745) was an English poet. George Crabb writes that she left several poems, ‘the most esteemed of which was her “Bath”’.〔George Crabb, (''Universal historical dictionary'' ), enlarged edn, 2 vols (London: Baldwin and Cradock, and J. Dowding, 1833), I, s.v.〕 ==Life== Born at Malmesbury, Wiltshire, she was the eldest daughter of Henry Chandler, a dissenting minister, later at Bath, Somerset. Her mother was a Miss Bridgman of Marlborough, and Samuel Chandler was one of her brothers. In her youth her spine became crooked, and her health suffered; but she set up a shop in Bath about 1705, when not yet out of her teens, and wrote rhyming riddles and poems to friends. The neighbouring gentry had her to visit them, among them Mrs. Boteler, Mrs. Moor, Lady Russell, and the Duchess of Somerset. Jonathan Swift's friend Mary Barber was her neighbour, and she was also a friend of Elizabeth Rowe. She died on 11 September 1745.
