Samantha at the St. Louis Exposition

CHAPTER IX
15/21

Engravings, etchings, figgers in marble, metal, plaster.

Carvings in ivory, stone, wood, etc.

Architectural designs of all kinds; mosaics; art work in glass, earthen ware, leather, metal; artistic book binding and etc., etc., etc., and I might spread these out into volumes.
And didn't my soul jest spread her wings here in delight, to speak in flowery language.

What pictures of beauty dawned on my rapt eyesight, faces sweet as wuz ever dremp on, sad faces, tragic faces, old faces and young faces; children sweet and bonny as wuz ever seen.

Youth and love, age and manhood and gratified ambition, princes and paupers, life and death.
Landscapes full of the dewy freshness and joy of the morning, night seens dark and full of mystery and melancholy.
