Nature had laid a white hand over the creatures ensconced within the vale, as a hand might be laid over a nest of chirping birds.

When a rougher accent joined in the vociferations of man and beast, it would have been realized that the dairy-farmer himself had come out to meet the cows, pail in hand, and white pinafore on; and when, moreover, some womens voices joined in the chorus, that the cows were stalled and proceedings about to commence. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
