Home Pictures (Classic Reprint)Fb&c Limited, 31 janv. 2018 - 428 pages Excerpt from Home Pictures I was tying the clematis to the trellis early this morning; the pink buds, shining with dew, looked like red lips pouting to kiss me. I was thinking what a sweet picture we would make Milly standing under neath - the prettiest child in the world, I think - with our gray puss in her arms, her brown hair blown in tangled skeins over her milk-white neck and shoulders. Then skipping over the green grass was my pet lamb, fresh from the wash, and pure as snow. I had reached as far as my arms would allow, and was just consider ing the propriety of mounting the slender wood-work, when Milly screamed. A short, quick cry of alarm it was, and as I turned, the sight I saw almost froze me with horror. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
