Quiver of love (c1868 to 1878)
-
Greeting card believed to be from the Quiver of Love set, published by Marcus Ward & Co, and illustrated by Kate Greenaway.
The verse reads:
"The Spring awakes
And Winter takes
Its last adieu.
Bees softly hum,
And birds, long dumb,
Carol anew.My Love and I
Together hie,
To watch the Spring:
And gently walk,
Or sit and talk,
And blithely sing."Location: Sir Wilfred Martineau Scrapbook. Early and Fine Printing Collection item number 719846
