_‘Child of the sunny brow.’_
Perhaps my book will be forgotten before the child, to whom these
lines are addressed, is old enough to understand them; but even if it
is not, there is little harm in saying that she is at this time the
most beautiful human being I ever saw. Her ‘thousand winning ways’ and
graceful motion are before me now like a sweet dream, and I shall never
forget them. May God bless her!
