“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.
BY THE AUTHOR OF “PHILO,” AND “RICHARD EDNEY AND THE
GOVERNOR'S FAMILY.”
