Her features were neither regular nor faultless. Her mouth was too large to be perfect, and her nose was not Grecian; but her eyes were peculiarly fine and illumined her face, whose chief charm lay in its power of expression. If she chose, almost all her thoughts and feelings could find their reflex there.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
