"A mother's love * If there lie one thing pure, Where all beside is sullied; That can endure When all else pass away: If there he aught Surpassing human deed, or word, or thought, -- It is a mother's love!" Maternal Affection has displayed itself in a thousand interesting forms, differing from each other according to the various circumstances which have occasioned them: nil alike prove how deep and endearing is that sacred tie which binds a mother to her offspring, to purchase whose safety she has often been content to make the greatest sacrifices, esteeming life itself of trivial value when held in comparison with the welfare of such beloved objects.
