DREAMS

By Olive Schreiner

To a small girl-child, who may live to grasp somewhat of that
which for us is yet sight, not touch.
Note.
These Dreams are printed in the order in which they were written.
In the case of two there was a lapse of some years between the writing of the first and last parts; these are placed according to the date of the first part.
Olive Schreiner.
Matjesfontein,
Cape Colony,
South Africa.
November, 1890.
