Excerpt from Caxtoniana: A Series of Essays on Life, Literature, and Manners And, in connection with this spiritual process, it is noticea ble how intuitively in age we go back with strange fondness to all that is fresh in the earliest dawn of youth. If we never cared for little children before, we delight to see them roll in the grass over which we hobble on crutches.
