Text Appearing Before Image:
bear me far,I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar. TENNYSON. One wish ere yet the long year ends ; Lets close it with a parting rhyme,A pledge, a hand, to all our friends As fits the merry Christmas time :On lifes wide scene you, too, have parts, That Fate ere long shall bid you play;Good-night: with honest, gentle hearts, A kindly greeting go alway. THACKERAY. (367) Printed under the supervision ofD. B. Updike, 6 Beacon StreetBoston, at the Norwood Press LIBRARY OF CONGRESS 0 029 561 731 7

Copyright, iSp^, hy Raphael Tuck and Sons Company, Limited PREFACE A BOOK OF WISHES! Has it everoccurred to the reader to wonder what thegreat, restless, seeking world is wishing for ? I wish is the commonest form of expressionupon the lips of humanity, whether it voices thesouVs aspiration for the far-off unattainableand dim/ or simply reflects the passing capriceof an idle hour. It has been a curious and interesting studyto collect, from random sources, the wishes,common or quaint, simple or philosophical,sentimental or practical, wise or otherwise, thatappear herein. Many of them are merely littleinterjectional fancies, snap-shot photographs ofthe mind, when, for a moment, it is off guard;other selections contain the embodied wisdom ofthe ages. Caught up from here, there, and everywhere,as the wind of popular favor has drifted them,many of these wishes are waifs, nameless andunclaimed; but wherever the authorship of aselection could he ascertained, it has been dulycredited.
