Susanna Blamire : ウィキペディア英語版 | Susanna Blamire
Susanna Blamire (1747–1794) was an English poet, known as ''The Muse of Cumberland.'' Her poems, collected in 1842, depicted Cumbrian life and manners. Her song ''And Ye shall walk in silk attire'' is particularly remembered. ==Life== Blamire was born at Cardew Hall, near Cardew, Cumberland, on 12 January 1747. Her parents were William Blamire, a farmer who died in 1758, and Isabella Simpson of Stockdalewath who died in 1753. Left an orphan, she went to live with her mother's sister Mary who farmed at Thackwood, Stockdalewath. Through her brothers William, married to a sister of John Christian Curwen and father of William Blamire, and Richard, a bookseller in London, Susanna Blamire was connected to the wider worlds of politics and the arts. Her sister married Colonel Graham of Gartmore, giving a social connection to Scotland. In Carlisle she encountered Catharine Gilpin of Scaleby Castle, who became a friend and possibly, according to Mandell Creighton, a co-author in verse. Blamire suffered from a recurrent and severe form of rheumatic heart disease, which killed her at the age of 47.〔
