The Ballad Of Babe Christabel: With Other Lyrical Poems is a collection of poetry written by Gerald Massey and published in 1854. The book features the titular poem, which tells the story of a young woman named Christabel who is seduced and abandoned by a wealthy man. The collection also includes a number of other lyrical poems on various themes, including love, nature, and social justice.

The Ballad Of Babe Christabel is considered one of his most important works, and is still studied and admired by scholars and 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.
