Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Huguenot Family "Yolande, my child, we must make friends with the people about us. I am desolate here without my children, my poor, who used to come to the chatelet and suffer themselves to be served on Saturday." "If you are desolate, grand´mere, what are we? Why, you always remind me of the singing-birds which abound m this England, one of the few good things we have come so far to find." There is nothing common and unclean, my impatient grand-daughter; you ought to know better. ´Patient as a Huguenot´ is a proverb, and all is fair to those who have the eyes to see it. As to the singing, I learned earlier than any of you to sing in a cage, and to what music!" "I know, grand´mere. It was to the sound of threats and curses, and the volleys of the dragonnades. You were one of the children imprisoned and tormented in order to turn you from the faith, which you kept, good grand´mere, because ´out of the mouths of babes and sucklings God has perfected praise."´ "Ah! the babes and sucklings know little better what they are saying, and have no more merit of will and choice than the Innocents. When they have will and choice, how they falter and fall away, because the flesh is weak." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
