THE PROVERBS Translated out of the original Hebrew. Quite a stunning relic to behold, given both its provenance and the function of proverbs on the battlefield. One imagines that this delicate little pocket book may have been held close to a soldiers heart, through the chaos of war.

That these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation shall have a new birth of freedom; and that this government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. Publication: New York: American Bible Society, 1862.
