The Cottager's Sabbath: A Poem

Excerpt from The Cottager's Sabbath: A Poem
My principal object in the following pages has been to delineate the simple manners of cottage-life, as it is still to be found in some of the rural districts of England, where the happiest portion of my own days has been spent. The language employed is purposely simple, being more fitted to the ideas than words of loftier sound; while the incidents and characters introduced, are copied with the closest fidelity from real life.
