"The Dairyman's Daughter" by Legh Richmond is a Christian narrative written in the early 19th century. This work is structured as a religious tale focused on the life of a pious young woman from a humble background, emphasizing themes of faith, grace, and redemption.

The narrative then recounts a conversation with her father, a dairy farmer, who expresses his pride and love for his daughter, admiring her character transformation from worldly concerns to a devout Christian life. The tone is reflective and imbued with a sense of divine purpose, suggesting that Elizabeth will play a crucial role in guiding her family toward spiritual awareness and salvation amidst life's trials.
