1 John Langhorne Quotes

John Langhorne reflects tender, melancholy memories of motherhood, family and loss.

Cold on Canadian hills or Minden's plain, Perhaps that parent mourned her soldier slain; Bent o'er her babe, her eye dissolved in dew, The big drops mingling with the milk he drew Gave the sad presage of his future years,- The child of misery, baptized in tears.
