Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Autumnal Wreath: A Religious Souvenir These leaves, which have been gathered at long intervals, and many of them lain away in dusty drawers since the writers early girlhood, are now, at the solicitation of friends, collected and woven into a wreath, to he presented as a keepsake to our many friends. Some of them have appeared in print, yet but very few of them have ever been suffered to see the light. Very many of them were gathered in hope and gladness, when the rich blessings of health and strength were ours to enjoy; when the inspiring voice of friendship was music to our ear, and when we ever delighted to reciprocate those tender and endearing sentiments; others were gathered from the dark boughs of the mournful cypress, when the heart was oppressed with its load of grief, when the kind ministrations of friendship were as a soothing balm to the wounded spirit; while many, indeed, were gathered from beneath the drooping branches of the weeping willow, where love and friendship have long since reposed in dust. The writer makes no pretensions to erudition in the production of this simple wreath; the sentiments of which it is composed are the spontaneous outgushings of a heart whose sincerity and simplicity must be its only apology.
