MARGARET.

A TALE OF THE
Real and Ideal, Blight and Bloom;
INCLUDING
SKETCHES OF A PLACE NOT BEFORE DESCRIBED,
CALLED
MONS CHRISTI.

“It is the vernal season; for the heart is every moment longing to walk in the garden, and every bird of the grove is melodious in its carols as the nightingale: thou wilt fancy it a dawning zephyr of early spring, or new year's day morning; but it is the breath of Jesus, for in that fresh breath and verdure the dead earth is reviving.” —Saadi.
