Explore "Mary Seaham, Volume I" by Mrs. Grey on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
. Manhood's earliest youth / Shone from the clear eye with a light like truth. / There play'd that fearless smile with which we meet / The sward that hides the swamp before our feet; / The bright on-looking to the Future, ere / Our sins reflect their own dark shadows there. / THE NEW TIMON.
