Book Description

Excerpt from Caprice; Or Anecdotes of the Listowel Family, Vol. 1 of 3: An Irish Novel To aid thy mind's development, - to watch Thy dawn of little joys; - to sit and see Almost thy very growth, to new thee catch Knowledge of objects, - wonders yet to thee! To hold thee lightly on a gentle knee, And print on thy soft cheek a parent's kiss - Yet this was in my nature, as it is, I know not what is there, yet something like to this. Byron. In a village, some miles from Killarney, stood a glebe house, the residence of Mr. Kelly, curate of the parish.
