Home: A little sheltered hollow scooped out of the windy hill of the world.
Home: A place where our stomachs get three good meals daily and our hearts a thousand. MISCELLANEOUS TOASTS These might be multiplied indefinitely, but a sufficient number are given to serve as hints to the person who is able to make his own toasts, yet seeks a little aid to lift him out of the common rut. Marriage: The happy estate which resembles a pair of shears; so joined that they cannot be separated; often moving in opposite directions, yet always punishing any one who comes between them. Marriage: The gate through which the happy lover leaves his enchanted ground and returns from paradise to earth. Woman: The fairest work of the great Author; the edition is large, and no man should be without a copy. Woman: She needs no eulogy; she speaks for herself. Woman: The bitter half of man. (A sour bachelor's toast.) Wedlock: May the single all be married and all the married be happy. Love to one, friendship to many, and good-will to all. The Lady we love and the Friend we trust. |
