Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from A Garland of Christmas Carols, Ancient and Modern: Including Some Never Before Given in Any Collection The little cottage on the road-side had its sprigs of holly in the window, and ruddy children stood at the door with faces that betokened how near was the general holiday. As I drew towards my destination I occasionally passed a peasant carrying the, to him, sumptuous meal for the morrow, - perhaps the bountiful gift of the good lady at the manor-house - or bearing on his shoulder a block to light up his cottage hearth in honour of Christmas-tide. I could not help thinking, as I moved along, that on the eve of this glorious day all nature seemed to sink into repose after the labours and storms of the past year. The quiet village of Seven Oaks exhibited that neat and cleanly aspect so often admired by visitors to this country when passing through our more orderly rural districts. The trimmed hedge-rows, whitened door-steps, and glistening window-panes, with the prim and happy old people passing about making preparations for the morrow, pictured forth a delightful scene of order and contentment. Fatigued with my walk, I retired to rest early. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
