Description

A mid-eighteenth century English sampler in monochrome, with the alphabet in uppercase (twice) and lowercase (omitting "J", which was then not yet considered a separate letter), some crowns, and the text: Behold the Daughter of / Innocence how beauti-/ful is the mildness of her / Countenence. ELIZ. LAIDMAN / APRIL 1760. "U" and "V" are included as separate letters in some of the alphabets, merged in others. The source of the quotation is unknown, but is not Biblical.
