Letitia Elizabeth Landon Quote

Even in childhood's innocence of pleasure
Lives that destroying spirit which in time
Will waste, then want, the best of happiness.


The Vow of the Peacock (1835)


Even in childhood's innocence of pleasure Lives that destroying spirit which in time Will waste, then want, the best of happiness.

Even in childhood's innocence of pleasure Lives that destroying spirit which in time Will waste, then want, the best of happiness.

Even in childhood's innocence of pleasure Lives that destroying spirit which in time Will waste, then want, the best of happiness.

Even in childhood's innocence of pleasure Lives that destroying spirit which in time Will waste, then want, the best of happiness.
