The biographer of Lucy Larcom tells us that the aspiring girl pinned all manner of selections of prose and verse which she wished to learn at the sides of the window beside which her loom was placed; and in this way, in the intervals of work, she familiarised herself with a great deal of good literature. A certain man, now widely known, spent his boyhood on a farm, and largely educated himself.
'Oh, Mr. Larcom! a message, or business? said Mr. Larkin, urbanely. 'Not a message, Sir; only an enquiry about them few shares, answered Mr. Larcom, with another serene reverence, and remaining standing, hat in hand, at the door. 'Oh, yes; and how do you do, Mr. Larcom? Quite well, I trust. Yes about the Naunton Junction.
No, no; with Mark Wylder it was quite out of the question altogether visionary and impracticable. Persons like Larcom do make such absurd blunders, and so misapprehend the conversation of educated people.
"Oh, don't worry, it isn't a very serious break. She hasn't had so much to talk about for goodness knows when and yet nobody wants to listen to her. I told her to tell Luce about it, but that didn't seem to soothe her much. Luce is Lucy Larcom, Mr. Cabot," she explained. "He is our cat."
And let me add, it strikes me as highly important, both in the interests of the leading individuals in this unpleasant business, and also as pertaining to your own comfort and security, that you should carefully avoid communicating what you have just mentioned to any other party.

By a report of the ordnance-captain, Larcom, it appeared there were grain-crops more than sufficient to support the whole population a cereal harvest estimated at four hundred millions of dollars, as prices were.

'To think that I was blaming my poor son as a mere reprobate, and praying for his conversion, says he, 'when he was lying here, cut off without a moment for repentance. There was your nephew, suspecting nothing, Squire Brocas, Mr. Eyre, of Botley Grange, Mr. Biden, Mr. Larcom, and Mr.
A cold north wind, as he thus reclined, Of a sudden raged around; And a maiden fair, who was walking there, Next morning, an OPAL found. By Lucy Larcom Father Time, your footsteps go Lightly as the falling snow. In your swing I'm sitting, see! Push me softly; one, two, three, Twelve times only. Like a sheet, Spread the snow beneath my feet. Singing merrily, let me swing Out of winter into spring.
He merges in their popularity the fame of a poet which I do not think will always suffer that eclipse, for his poems show him to have looked deeply into the heart of common humanity, with a true and tender sense of it. Miss Larcom scarcely seemed to change from date to date in the generation that elapsed between the time I first saw her and the time I saw her last, a year or two before her death.
