Pearls Strung From Various Authors, Ed. By F.W. Poland by Frederick William Poland is a 19th-century miscellany of brief moral maxims and devotional reflections. The Preface explains the aim: to fill spare moments with short, thought-provoking bits that can be read in a parlour or study and then pondered. The collection, often titled Pearls Strung, assembles a wide range of aphorisms, proverbs, and ethical observations drawn from diverse writers—statesmen, poets, theologians, and scholars—each offering guidance on virtue, self-control, charity, humility, and duty. The items are numbered and diverse in tone, ranging from warnings against vanity and deceit to counsels on patience, gratitude, and the proper use of talent, wealth, and time. Many entries emphasize religion as a sustaining force and the importance of practical wisdom in daily life. The original edition appeared in 1850 (MDCCCL), and the work is presented as a compact manual of timeless counsel for living, reflection, and spiritual growth.
