Excerpt from The Voice of Childhood, or the Influence and the Poetry, the Wrongs and the Wants of the Little Ones

Eighteen hundred years ago the Saviour set a little child in the midst of his hearers, and told them to be like it if they wished to reach the Kingdom of Heaven.. Little children! Innocent, pretty, loveable, artless, prat tling, up a'top of a proud mother's knee, the light of home, adorned with sweet charities, with simple wonder, with clinging love, with honest sympathies, with natural graces. Dear enchanters! Knitting still closer the soul of father and mother, and binding them with the golden cords of affection; bright, living sunbeams, that cheer the lone widow's heart when the bread-winner has gone away for ever.
