Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Frank, Vol. 1 of 2: A Sequel to Frank in Early Lessons "Now look on him, whose very voice, in tone, Just echoes thine; whose features are thine own; And stroke his polish´d cheek of purest red, And lay thine hand upon his flaxen head, And say, ´My boy, th´ unwelcome hour is come, When thou, transplanted from thy genial home, Must find a colder soil and bleaker air, And trust for safety to a stranger´s care. - Thou would st not, deaf to Nature´s tenderest plea, Turn him adrift upon a rolling sea; Nor say. Go thither! conscious that there lay A brood of asps, or quicksands, in his way. Then, only govern´d by the self-same rule Of natural pity, send him not to school.´ How these lines must strike any affectionate parent, who is going to send a boy to school! Yet, when the first effect of the flash and stroke of eloquence passes away, as the mind subsides to calm, we question whether the danger be real or imaginary.
