Day.
Most of them have died. Some of them have survived. Today
Valentine`s Day remains, as ever, a day to express love and
its main meaning is a sentimental one.

People of all ages send valentines, serious and comic – to their own true love,
but also to family members and friends. Valentine cards that we know today
first appeared in the 18th century.
Sweethearts used to spend hours making their own valentines. Lace, satin,
ribbon, coloured paper, wild flowers, moss, feather and shells, all were used to
make them look more “attractive”.

The commercial card appeared in the 19th century. It was brightly
coloured and decorated, and later on even perfumed. It contained
a ready-made sentiment to suit all tastes.

Shops began selling paper hearts, bows and arrows, cupids, roses, etc.
Of course it is especially young people and children who look forward to
St. Valentine`s Day, hoping to receive as many cards as possible.
The greatest fun is to guess who has sent them.

Traditional valentine cards are in rhymes and sentimental in nature. In old times sweethearts composed their sentimental valentines themselves. It was not an easy thing to write a serious message avoiding commonplace variations of “mine” and “ fine” and “Valentine”.
In the last century special books appeared (for example,
St. Valentine`s Sentimental Writer) to help people in love write
their valentines.
Messages can be humorous (they are usually in prose) :
Dear Betty,
First I love my mother and father. Then I love my grandparents,
Then I love my cat Tim and my canary Yellowbird. Then I love my
records and hi-fi set and after that I love you.
