Excerpt from Select Circulating Library, or Youth's Companion, Vol. 1
A beautiful chariot there came, To take some most elegant ladies abroad, Who straitway got into the same.
The ladies in feathers and jewels were seen, The chariot was painted all o'er, The footmen behind were in silver and green, And four horses gallop'd before.

Excerpt from Select Circulating Library, or Youth's Companion, Vol. 1
A true story.
Little Ann and her mother were walking one day
Through London's fine city so fair;
And business obliged them to go by the way
That led them through Cavendish Square.
And as they passed by the great house of a lord,
A beautiful chariot there came,
To take some most elegant ladies abroad,
Who straightway got into the same.
The ladies in feathers and jewels were seen,
The chariot was painted all o'er
The footmen behind were in silver and green,
And four horses galloped before.
Little Ann, by her mother walked silent and sad,
A tear trickled down from her eye;
Till her mother said, Ann, I should be very glad
To know what it is makes you cry.
Ah, look! said the child, at that carriage, mamma,
Ah covered with varnish and gold,
Those ladies are riding so charmingly there,
While we have to walk in the cold.
You say, God is kind to the folks that are good;
But surely it cannot be true;
Or else I am certain, almost, that he would
Give such a fine carriage to you.
Look there, little girl, said her mother, and see
What stands at that very coach door;

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book of simple verses is designed to introduce young children to the concepts of kindness, charity, and right action. The author, writing in the early 19th century, believed that early childhood is a time to lay foundations for positive moral conduct and that these virtues are best instilled through repetitive lessons in simple language that young minds can understand. These poems are intended to help children understand their place in a moral universe and to guide them towards a life of good works. The author's approach is gentle and understanding, acknowledging that young children will make mistakes but emphasizing the importance of learning from those mistakes and always striving to do better. The ideas presented in these poems are as relevant today as they were 200 years ago, and this book is a valuable resource for parents and educators who wish to encourage the growth of moral character in young children. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330532133_0
