| 2 |  | Ode to Thrale by Samuel Johnson On 6 September 1775 Samuel Johnson wrote an Ode to Thrale whilst on a tour of the Scottish Shetlands with the Thrales. The verses are an expression of Johnson’s deep affection for Hester Thrale. He imagines himself wandering through remote and unfamiliar lands, but his thoughts are always with her. He asks himself what she is doing, and he pictures her as a devoted wife to Mr. Thrale, a loving mother, and a diligent learner. He ends the poem by expressing his hope that she will remember him and that her faith in him will remain steadfast. |
