Faithless Nelly Gray is a ballad written by Thomas Hood, a 19th-century English poet and humorist. The ballad tells the tragic tale of a young woman named Nelly Gray who is abandoned by her lover, a sailor named Ben Bolt. Nelly is left alone and pregnant, and she eventually dies of a broken heart. The ballad is a poignant and emotional story of love, betrayal, and loss, and it has become a classic of English literature. Thomas Hood's lyrical and evocative language paints a vivid picture of Nelly's plight, and his use of rhyme and meter adds to the ballad's emotional impact. Faithless Nelly Gray is a timeless work of poetry that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
