Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Bit of a Fool I was at school at Winchester and fourteen years old when my mother died. At that age I had not any deeper feelings than the average boy, and I know that when the first grief, which is one of the simplest of human emotions, had passed away, I felt a certain sense - I will not say of relief, but of a removal of constraint, of greater freedom. I had no great compunction about annoying my father. When I did any of the usual evil things that boys do, he would get angry, and I, in consequence, defiant. He was a man, and it always seemed a fair stand-up fight. But with my mother it was different. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

And little I know; Neither whence I came, nor whither I go; Neither what I am, nor may hope to be, When time is lost in eternity. And yet - so long as I dwell upon earth, There shall not be lacking the sounds of mirth; For wherever I go comes a gaping crowd, And whatever I do there is laughter loud; Laughter that half conceals a sneer, Though sometimes I fancy it covers a tear. But little care I. For pity or scorn. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Book of Cambridge Verse Classic Reprint written by Ernest Edward Kellett and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Download or read book Thou Fool Classic Reprint written by John Joy Bell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thou Fool! At the end of the table near the grate a woman sat sewing; opposite to her a boy bent over an exercise book, into which he was copying very carefully figures from a slate. The twain were mother and son, and they worked steadily, silently, as though much depended on their labours. They had been working so for some three hours. To look at the woman then you would have guessed her age to be something over forty. As a matter of fact, it was thirty-five. There was no grey in her black hair, but her face had a faded look and was lined about the forehead, partly perhaps through over-much needlework. She had been pretty once in spite of a mouth unusually hard for a woman. Her eyes were dark brown, and, though wearied, held a certain soft brightness; her nose was finely shaped, her chin strong but not heavy, her teeth behind somewhat pale lips were perfect, and her brow was beautifully shaped. But she was too thin, too colourless, and she had forgotten how to straighten her back when she rose from her sewing.
