Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Leaves of the Year 1863 There were many of these leaves, but the winds have scattered them. Such as could be found, I have picked up, and here throw them forth upon the stream of lime, thus sending them down to you. - To you, to whom my heart goes forth, in its longings for the day, which you will see, which I also almost see, in the distance - the day when this great nation shall fulfill its happy destiny. I see, as in the distance, an era of peace and plenty, and of the development of untold wealth; I see an era of liberty and righteous law; and my faith beholds, in that good time coming, our own dear and beautiful human nature regenerated, perfected, and adorned. We (Our nation) are passing through a red sea; a baptism of fire and blood. O it was a sad thought that it must needs he. But dear and loving friend - brighter skies are yours, than ever we have known. Your sun will be as seven times, as the light of seven days. Yet do not think of us as without hope and gladness - think of us as expecting to join you. We know not how, nor when, nor where; but the cause of universal humanity is ours; God is in it, and shall we not, some day, lake you by the hand? In the midst of sorrows we are glad, and no spirit of envy shall mar our joy; for even now do we rejoice with you, as we seem almost to hear the distant echo of your hallelujahs, while we are marching on.
