He leads her forth; the magic sleep
of all the Court is o'er--
They wake, they move, they talk, they laugh,
just as they did of yore
A hundred years ago."

GREAT AUTHORS
Children seem to possess an inherent conviction that when the
hole is big enough for the cat, no smaller one at the side is
needed for the kitten. They don't really care for "Glimpses" of
this, or "Gleanings" of that, or "Footsteps" to the other--but
would rather stretch and pull, and get on tiptoe to reach the
sweeter fruit above them, than confine themselves to the crabs
which grow to their level.
