(4 stars; 1 reviews)

This is a volume of poetry for children by Hannah Flagg Gould, containing several fables and other verses with a little moral.
"Accept, then, my young Friends, this new CORONAL of the little flowers of poesy which I have woven for you. When you shall have examined and scented it, and found no thorn to pierce—no juice or odor to poison you in its whole circle, wear it for the giver's sake; and enjoy it and profit by its healthful influences, for your own." - Summary by Carolin and H.F. Gould (2 hr 45 min)
