Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rural Musings
Eader, if e'er you chance to look Within the pages of this small book, The man who wrote it, I may say, Has laboured hard for many a day Before the swelting, blazing forge, With sweat on brow like drops of rain That trickle down the window pane. Adhering to the good old creed That diligence maketh rich indeed Adds no sorrow nor rankling care, Wins bread enough and some to spare. The writer has this truth realised When balmy sleep has closed his eyes.
