Excerpt from Seedtime and Harvest: TalesBeneath the dense shadow of a beautiful forest wandered two children, a boy and a girl, the former fourteen and the latter twelve years of age. The boy, casting his eyes upward, along the rugged trunks, (here and there overgrown with the most luxuriant moss, ) to the fresh green crowning the lofty summits of the time-honored oaks, said: "These glorious trees remind me of the verses in our reading-book:'To God's own fiery bolt alone I yield, No tempest's rage can bow my sturdy crest, Strength steels my core, a mighty power I wield, -Come, all ye weak, and 'neath my shadow rest!'"As these words rang out through the silence of the quiet wood, the boy's bright, cheerful gaze fell upon the tender maiden at his side, and seemed to assure her of his unfailing aid and protection throughout her whole life.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
