Metaphor in Context
How new to you is the scene of life in which you are now engaged,--balls--plays--operas--ridottos --Ah, my child! at your return hither, how will you bear the change? My heart trembles for your future tranquillity.--Yet I will hope every thing from the unsullied whiteness of your soul, and the native liveliness of your disposition.
