Victorian Valentines
By
*Gypsy Joy*
The Victorians gave the world bozillian creative ideas.
In many ways they are still highly regarded in our era.
Who would not be enchanted to receive an absolutely
adorable (free) Valentine e-card from:
http://www.indiana.edu/~liblilly/cardsharp/index.php
OR when betrothed or not sigh heavenly about the
first Modern Valentine Cards and the 2nd couplet
of the Valentine poem that reads:
Say, that I love with truth sincere,
None other but the truth revealing-
And wish the happy day was near,
That sees us at the Altar kneeling.

Even the Vinegar Valentines are not hidden away
in the Victorian drawers:

Victorian garden Valentine cards evoke memories of
splendor of times known to us only through history.
