Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Early Engagements: And Florence (a Sequel)
DO not weep thus, darling. If I find your health not improving at the expiration of a year, you shall then return home. The separation will be most painful. I have not yielded my consent to it, without many keen and bitter pangs; and were it not for the alarming state of your health, I feel that it could not be borne. I cannot, said he, smilingly kissing her tears away, see my ?ower fading for the want of congenial skies; and Dr. Carson assures me that three years' residence in this healthful clime, will completely restore you. This is the rainbow of promise, which, arching over my darkened skies, has nerved me to bear the separation, and Will cheer ine, and console me in my loneliness, during your absence.
