{"product_id":"2940013550520","title":"THE PLEASURES OF THE COUNTRY","description":"A VISIT TO THE OLD HALL.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEdward and Kate lived in a country town. It was a cheerful, clean town,\u003cbr\u003ewith wide streets, and an old church that had large trees round it, and\u003cbr\u003eivy growing up the tower. Their house had a garden behind it, in which\u003cbr\u003ethey used to play very happily, drive their hoops round the walks, and\u003cbr\u003erun and jump about on the grass-plot. They also made many pleasant\u003cbr\u003elittle excursions into the country round, when their sister Laura was\u003cbr\u003eable to go with them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of their favourite walks was through the woods belonging to an\u003cbr\u003eancient manor-house, always called \"The Old Hall,\" about a mile from the\u003cbr\u003etown. It belonged to a rich nobleman; but nobody had lived in it for a\u003cbr\u003elong time. The gardens and park were, however, kept in fine order; and\u003cbr\u003eit was said, that some day the house would be put in repair and\u003cbr\u003efurnished. As it was now, people could walk by the paths through the\u003cbr\u003ewoods close up to it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of these paths was just outside the wall of the flower garden, and\u003cbr\u003eled up to the portico of a sort of summer house or pavilion, partly gone\u003cbr\u003eto ruin. The door of this pavilion was always closed; but it was so\u003cbr\u003eshady and pleasant all round there, that it was a favourite place for\u003cbr\u003eEdward and Kate to play in, while Laura sat under a tree reading; and\u003cbr\u003ethey would often look up at the beautiful roses, jasmines, and other\u003cbr\u003ecreepers that hung over the top of the wall, and wish they might go into\u003cbr\u003ethe garden and see all the lovely flowers they thought must be there.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47152721592560,"sku":"2940013550520","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013550520_p0.jpg?v=1763582689","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013550520","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
