grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal
life."-Paul to Titus.

CHAPTER I.

Thanks to the hand invisible, that led thee to these
withered arms.....

Faint nature said I ne'er should see thy face,
Till mortal life had ceased; but God hath shown me
Both thyself and child!

"THIS is aunt Worthy's home," said Charles, after giving the sound who,er, for his horses to stop before the door of a neat little cottage, that was parted from the road by a wicker fence, built for the purpose of excluding the gaze of foot passengers at its low windows;-" you had best alight immediately, friend Anna, and go in; for aunt is rather lame in the back, and may be, she can't well come out to give you the welcome; but you will have it hearty enough, I warrants, as soon as you be under the roof. I will help Mary out afterwards—that is, as soon as you give the word;" and the faithful rustic added a significant wink, as much as to say, "I know all about it."
