e greatest part of the day in
the school-room, till summer came, when it would again join its friends,
and always build its nest in the very window from which it had fallen
into Mary's lap.
Six years had passed since then, but what now became of it we could
never learn. For a long time we hoped it had gone again over sea and
land, to visit far countries with all the others, but whether it had or
not we never knew, for we saw our pretty Fairy no more.
LAST PAGE.
The last bright page before you,
Kind reader and good friend,
Is of another Annual
The very pleasant end.
Our Book's communication
To goodly themes applied,
None of its pages would we wish
To change, expunge, or hide.
With us be Life's brief pages,
When looking back to youth,
So filled with kindly words of love,
And timely Christian truth,
That with an honest confidence
In what our deeds shall say,
With steady and firm hand we write
Our "last page," and away!
