Excerpt from The New England History, From the Discovery of the Continent by the Northmen, A D. 986, Vol. 2 of 2
The purpose and end of all Society and Government being to make good and complete men and women, it becomes us to inquire; what elements of development and growth existed; what also were neglected in Sew England.
New England seems to have suffered for the want of two things - Amusement and art. Why was this? Necessity forced men to work for the fertile lands were scarce and the long winters required much food and shelter form an and least. In a tropical land constant fruits seduce the body to repose; but in a colder region the first warm sunshine of spring must be watched, and seized and planted along with the sprouting seed; the early hours and the even tide must he devoted to hasten the crops which in the short summer must grow and blossom, and bear their fruit.
