In my grandmother's room, at the bottom of the cupboard where she kept "The History of the Bible," with the terrible pictures illustrating the visions of Revelation, she had also several other precious relics.

In particular there was an old silver-clasped psalm book.

It was extremely tiny, like a toy-book, and in its day it must have been a marvel of the printer's skill.

It had been made in miniature thus they told me, so that it could be easily hidden; at the time of the persecutions our ancestors had often carried it about with them, concealed in their clothing.

There was also, in a paste-board box, a bundle of letters written on parchment and marked Leyden or Amsterdam.
