Book Description
Excerpt from Snow-Bound, Among the Hills, Songs of Labor, Mabel Martin: And Other Poems It is to snow-bound that one resorts for the most natural and delightful narrative of the associations amongst which Whittier passed his boyhood. His family held to the tenets of the Friends, and the discipline of that society, in connection with the somewhat rigorous exactions of country life in New England in the early part of the century, deter mined the character Of the formal education which he re ceived. In later life he was wont to refer to the journals of Friends which he found in the scanty library in his father's house as forming a large part Of his reading in boyhood. He steeped his mind with their thoughts and learned to love their authors for their unconscious saintliness. There were not more than thirty volumes on the shelves, and, with a passion for reading, he read them over and over. One of these books, however, was the Bible, and he possessed himself of its contents, becoming not only familiar with the text, but penetrated by the spirit.
