A wonderful anecdote about Charles Lamb busting up laughing at his friend William Hazlitt’s wedding. So charming!!
“I am going to stand godfather; I don’t like the business; I cannot muster up decorum for these occasions; I shall certainly disgrace the font. I was at Hazlitt’s marriage, and had like to have been turned out several times during the ceremony. Anything awful makes me laugh. I misbehaved once at a funeral.”
Having read both Lamb and Hazlitt, there is something so amusing to me imagining all of that.
