“Nothing more daintily charming in style, more tenderly pathetic in matter, or more exquisitely balanced as a story, has come to our table for a long time than ‘Tryphena in Love.’ It is a simple tale of humble life in the Somerset district of England.”—Boston Traveler.

“A sweet little English tale, idyllic in subject and manner. It is simply the story of an invalid boy who lies in the old manor house, in ‘the room where the king hid,’ and lives in a world of romance, and of the buxom little cousin who loves and serves him. The picture is delicately painted, yet firmly and clearly, and with a poetic atmosphere that is very charming.”—Philadelphia Times.

“No gentler or sweeter tale has appeared in years than Walter Raymond’s ‘Tryphena in Love.’”

“A delicious, dreamy love story, told for the love of telling.”—Chicago Times-Herald.
