First Freebie!

Today we offer our first freebie!  This gorgeous little artwork is from an antique children's primer called "Happy Go Lucky".  It depicts a young girl named "Miss Effie" having a violin lesson.  There is a poem that goes with this cute image, and I'll reproduce it below
 
Feel free to use this image for your own projects, commercial or not.  It is in the public domain, to the best of my knowledge.  Click the image to see it in its full beauty!
Here's the poem associated with Miss Effie's cute illustration:
"Miss Effie waiting to begin
To play upon her violin; --
If she with skill would learn to play,
Hard must she study every day.
    Though dry and hard are knowledge's roots
    Fragrant and sweet will be its fruits."
