Excerpt from Miranda Elliot, or the Voice of the Spirit An immortal spirit, linked with triple cords of life, to a sister spirit of mortal mould. Yes, there lay a babe, fair enough to look upon - eyes of heavenly azure, and locks golden as the light of day. Joy beams from its eyes - mirth's sweetest echoes sound in the merry rovings of its infant voice, and with it I am for ever and eternally united. Then there is another undeveloped part of our united being dependent on immortality for life, on mortat for action; combining the essence of the upper and the eternal with the intuitions of the lower and the natural world.
