| 1 | Author: | Child, Lydia Maria Francis, 1802-1880 | Requires cookie* | | Title: | Letter to Frances Locke, n.d. [a machine-readable transcription] | | | Published: | 1996 | | | Description: | In looking around my humble little
parlour for some memento of our cottage to bestow upon
you, I could think of nothing more appropriate than my
perfectly proportioned inkstand and arrowy pen. They
have little value in themselves, but they come from one
whose heart is full of sincere affection for you.
God bless you, my dear young friend, and preserve
that pure simplicity of character, which makes you
such a diamond in the desert of this pretending world. | | Similar Items: | Find |
