most beautiful contrast with the ruby lips Free
from care. and blest in the affection and indul-
gence Of her parents. she felt no envy toward
those who were raised above her BY the mere
caprice Of fortune. Vain Of her personal ap-
pearance, and knowing nothing but that she was
handsome, she was perfectly satisfied with her.
self-and had she been left alone with her il
