The island contains seventeen acres, and it stands on such a rise of ground, that every buildin' on the Fair ground can be seen plain. In the centre of the south end wuz the rose garden, where the choicest and most beautiful roses from all over the world bloom in their glowin' richness.
Bitter, icy winds would make the warm glowin' hearth fire of home seem brighter. Love would make its own sunshine. Happiness would warm the chill of the cold November day. Thomas J. and Maggie stood on the pier, both well and strong; Tommy sprung into their arms. They looked onto his round rosy face through tears of gratitude and thankfulness and embraced me with the same.
Day by day we sailed onwards, and if the days wuz beautiful, the nights wuz heavenly, lit by the glowin' moon that seemed almost like another sun, only softer and mellerer lookin'; and the lustrous stars of the tropics seemed to flash and glitter jest over our head almost as if we could reach up and gather 'em in our hands into a sheaf of light.
The red lips parted with a happy smile; the bright, laughin' eyes, sort o' soft too, and wistful wishful for the good that mebby come to you, and mebby didn't, but which the glowin' face was sure of, on that spring morning with the May birds singin' outside, and the May birds singin' inside.
But I made allowances, for as I looked into their glowin' faces I knowed they wuz partakin' of fruit from the full branches of first love, true love. Rich fruit that gives the divinest satisfaction of any this old earth affords. Food that never changes through the centuries, though fashion often changes, and riotous plenty or food famine may exalt or depress the sperit of the householder.
I'll send my cloak back, and you take your own time. There now, do be right comfortable!" The old man settled himself and bestowed upon his hostess a long look of approval. "The reports never done you justice, Mrs. Wybert, and they was very glowin' reports, too." "You're very kind, Mr. Bines, awfully good of you!" "I'm goin' to be more, Mrs. Wybert.
But now, all he has to do is to stand up there and look off into the glowin' heavens, a watchin' the golden light of the sun of Liberty a rollin' on westward. He holds his hand over his eyes; its rays most blind him, he is most lost a thinkin' how fur, how fur them rays are a spreadin', and a glowin',way, way off, Morgan is a lookin' onto our future, and it dazzles him.
Now, you may b'lave me or b'lave me not, but me own ould father God rest his sowl! was comin' over Croagh Patrick one night before Christmas with a bottle of whisky in one hand of him, and a goose, plucked an' claned an' all, in the other, which same he'd won in a lottery, when, hearin' a tchune no louder than the buzzin' of a bee, over a furze-bush he peeps, and there, round a big white stone, the Good People were dancing in a ring hand in hand, an' kickin' their heels, an' the eyes of them glowin' like the eyes of moths; and a chap on the stone, no bigger than the joint of your thumb, playin' to thim on a bagpipes.
Sez I, "Josiah Allen, hain't you ever meandered at all from that straight and narrer way?" "No mom, not a inch, not a hair's breadth." I wuz dumb-foundered by his conceit as many times as I had witnessed it. The sermon that follered wuz white and glowin' with the light of Heaven. You could see that he had not been disobedient to that Divine vision that had been revealed to him.
