Wayside Gleanings For Leisure Moments Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Wayside Gleanings for Leisure Moments Without looking at the face of the heart less man, we directed him to the house of a neighboring pastor, and returned to our nursery. We gazed on the merry little faces which smiled or grew sad in imitation of ours, - those little ones to whose ear no word in our language is half so sweet as mother, - and we wondered if that day could ever come when they could say of us, She has outlived her usefulness; she is no comfort to herself, and a burden to every body! And we hoped before such a day would dawn we might be taken to our rest. God forbid that we should outlive the love of our children! Rather let us die while their hearts are a part of our own, that our grave may be watered with their tears, and our love linked with their hopes of heaven. When the bell tolled for the mother's burial, we went to the sanctuary to pay our token of respect for the aged stranger, for we felt that we could give her memory a tear, even though her own children had none to shed.
