KEEPING HOUSE
AND
HOUSE KEEPING.
A STORY OF DOMESTIC LIFE.

EDITED BY
MRS. SARAH J. HALE.

“We'll little care what others do,
And where they go, and what they say;
Our bliss, all inward and our own,
Would only tarnish'd be by being shown:
The talking, restless world shall see,
Spite of the world, we'll happy be.”

Mrs. Barbauld.
