Text Appearing Before Image:
When, withoiit cruelty to fleecy flocks, Boys threw sheeps eyes at girls they fondly loved. Yet Hfes sublimest joyousness oft springsFrom unsuspected bliss in simplest things. You say: Proceed. Esther, a Quakeress, AVith saintly features, won me at sixteen. I loved the drab-dressed people for her sake, And thees and thous seemed-heavens choicest words. I went to Quaker meeting, and enjoyed
Text Appearing After Image:
Esther, a Quakeress,Witii saintly features, won me at sixteen. (13) 14 TALES OF EARLY LOVE. The silent service, gazing on her face.She was far fairer than a poets dreamOf all thats beautiful in earth or sky.Miltons grand Eve, by Dubufes pencil drawn,Had no such blonde perfection as she wore,Lacking the charm of living magnetism,That neither words nor colors can portray.Her looks were sermons that, rebuking sin,Made men feel penitent for loving her.I guess she goes to Quaker meetings yet,Perhaps discourses, and says thee and thou To reverential hundreds of good friends. When I was next enamored, Emeline Was tall and stately, dignified, refined. Majestic as Zenobia, and as proud. She had known happier days, but fortune frowned, And she descended to the lowly place Of clerk to a confectioner, and sold Delicious morceaux to admiring crowds. Demure and grave, she stood with soft white hands, To deal out sweets less sweet than her sweet self Seeming unconscious of the hungry eyes That feast
