Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Summer in Leslie Goldthwaite´s Life "Nothing but leaves - leaves - leaves! The green things don´t know enough to do anything better!" Leslie Goldthwaite said this, standing in the bay-window among her plants, which had been green and flourishing, but persistently blossomless, all winter, and now the spring days were come. Cousin Delight looked up; and her white ruffling, that she was daintily hemstitching, fell to her lap, as she looked, still with a certain wide intentness in her eyes, upon the pleasant window, and the bright, fresh things it framed. Not the least bright and fresh among them was the human creature in her early girlhood, tender and pleasant in its beautiful leafage, but waiting, like any other young and growing life, to prove what sort of flower should come of it. "Now you´ve got one of your ´thoughts,´ Cousin Delight! I see it ´biggening,´ as Elspie says." Leslie turned round, with her little green watering-pot suspended in her hand, waiting for the thought.
