Excerpt from The Unfortunate Mountain Girl: A Collection of Miscellanies, in Prose and Verse One beautiful evening in September, Lizza and her father were seated under their favorite tree, singing their wild song, which they usually sang at the close of the day, when the sun was shed ding its last rays over the earth. They had scarcely finished their song, when a stranger stepped from beneath a thicket, where he had been listening to the bird - like voice of Lizza. He approached the Spot where sat the old man and his beautiful daughter, resting her head upon his shoulder, and very politely accosted them. The old man was much disturbed at his approach, and by no means gave him a hearty welcome. The stranger looked at the fair girl with astonishment. He had often seen the old man in the market but had never dreamed of his having so beautiful a daughter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
