Amatorial


Definition:

  • (2) Owing partly to the attractive prettiness with which the stationery is now produced, and partly to the substitution of the natural language of affectionate congratulation for the high-flown amatory addresses of the common valentine, an increasing proportion of correspondence passing annually through the post-office on the 14th of February is addressed to children.
