A Child's Garden of Verses

By Stevenson, Robert Louis

Excerpt
Excerpt: For and watched for my unworthy sake: for your most comfortable hand that led me through the uneven land: for all the story books you read: for all the pains you comforted: for all you pitied, all you bore, in sad and happy days of yore: my second mother, my first wife, the angel of my infant life from the sick child, now well and old, take, nurse, the little book you hold!
