Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stories and Legends of Travel and History, for Children To my little friends, Mary and Alice Seelye, I wish to inscribe this volume, in remembrance of a pleasant summer spent under their father´s roof - the Water Cure, at Cleveland, where a part of these sketches were written, - in remembrance of their happy, cordial faces, and of the "loving kindness" of their parents - of much genial companionship and generous sympathy. In remembrance of the beautiful wood, with its flowery paths, its hills and dells and darkly shadowed water, where we often wandered together; - where my dear baby grew like the flowers, drinking in dew and sunshine - strengthened by fresh winds and aromatic odors, - where under fluttering forest-leaves her little face caught its first gleams of thought and tender meanings, like their glinting lights and flying shades, and her little voice seemed intoned by their silvery murmurs, the love-notes of birds and prattle of streams. In remembrance of the sweet spring in the glen, and the shady resting-places on the hill, - of the grand old oaks, and of the violets at their feet. In remembrance of the lovely child, with whom we last visited that wood, - dear Georgiana Gordon. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
