Bracebridge Hall - Love-Charms

from The Washington Irving Library · host Washington Irving

In which the customary gaieties attending a family wedding incite the domestics of Bracebridge Hall to indulge in quaint and ancient love-charms, weaving superstition and tradition through their daily lives with humorous yet tender earnestness. Among them, Phoebe Wilkins, a fair and fanciful housekeeper’s niece, is deeply ensnared by matters of the heart and fancy, her hopeful incantations and lovelorn practices revealing the gentle pangs and trials of youthful affection in a rustic abode.
