distinguished people came to- the Ros-

the new thought of the age circulated
through that little society. Then, were
there ever four such children in one

Christmas childhood was spent al
most wholly in London. Her first real
excitement, she declared once, her first
real excitement away from home-life
and the familiar aspects Of the streets
of western London, was afforded by a
visit she paid with Gabriel to- the Zoo
logical Gardens. The two amused
themselves after their first vivid inter
est, by imagining the thoughts of the
Gagged animals. Christina thought that
the birds should be honored by plain
tive verses, but Gabriel narrated such
whimsical biographies of the birds and
beasts that poetry gave way to fun.
Distinct as the impression was, it was
not so durably vivid as that Of the
walk of the two children, hand in hand,
across the solitudes of Regents Park,
with magnificent sunset which, Ga

to the distant trees and roof-ridges."
