Tuft of Flowers by Frost...

...And feel a spirit kindred to my own;
So that henceforth I worked no more alone;
But glad with him, I worked as with his aid,
And weary, sought at noon with him the shade;
And dreaming, as it were, held brotherly speech
With one whose thought I had not hoped to reach.
‘Men work together,’ I told him from the heart,
‘Whether they work together or apart.’

Our small group friends loaned this book to us. It's been a blessing. Encouragement to pray, read the Word, believe God for great things.
Please look into some of the pages yourself:

Thinner TTS...
I hop around so many apps -- I thought I'd better come up with a better way to do TTS(at least for me):
If you'd like to try download and try these:
1) Download TTSAnyAppTray_SE.exe to Desktop or Documents folder:
http://►.ttsanyapp.operaunite.com/Downloads/
2) Run TTSAnyAppTray_SE.exe to extract the software
(must be done as Administrator). This creates a folder
called MyItzyBits under same folder as downloaded to in step 1.
3) Double click ..\MyItzyBits\TTSAnyAppTray.exe
4) Highlight some text in most any application
5) Click the '►' icon in your system tray and 'Play' from that
context menu.
Note: If you want to download additional~updated phonetics files -- download to same directory as to which you downloaded software and extracted (step 2)
TTSAnyAppTray.exe has additional options:
ReadBrackets ~ check to read numeric footnote, e.g., [1] - default behavior is to not read these type items.
ReadParens ~ check to read numerics found inside parens, e.g., Robert Louis Stevenson(1850-1898) default behavior is to not read these type items.
Phonetics ~ click to open a window which stores ~ saves a list of phonetics "swaps", for example "WAR I=WAR ONE, etc.
Contains:
ProcessQuit.exe, TTSAnyAppTray.exe, TTSAnyApp.exe

Of course, a truly thinner TTS would be a Kindle. But, on our budget that may be a while. Meanwhile...
Enhancements:
The phonetics are now "saveable". Try changing "(default)" to a specific name and then pressing OK. If you then click the '...' -- you bring that file up and edit your own set of phonetics. If you want to have multiple copies -- save as a different name.
