And from its silent flood

Learns meekly to do good.”

This morning after doing my work I had lessons. I wrote some in my journal and did some sums. In the afternoon I went blue-berrying with Lizzie and picked nearly, if not quite, a quart. I read in the evening.


Wednesday, 19.

We had a descriptive lesson this morning and each of us wrote a description of Fruitlands.
