Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Sportsman's Sketches, Vol. 2 Give me your hand, gentle reader, and come along with me. It is glorious weather; there is a tender blue in the May sky; the smooth young leaves of the willows glisten as though they had been polished; the wide even road is all covered with that delicate grass with the little reddish stalk that the sheep are so fond of nibbling; to right and to left, over the long sloping hillsides, the green rye is softly waving; the shadows of small clouds glide in thin long streaks over it. In the distance is the dark mass of forests, the glitter of ponds, yellow patches of village; larks in hundreds are soaring, singing, falling headlong with outstretched necks, hopping about the clods; the crows on the highroad stand still, look at you, peck at the earth, let you drive close up, and with two hops lazily move aside. On a hill beyond a ravine a peasant is ploughing; a piebald colt, with a cropped tail and ruffled mane, is running on unsteady legs after its mother; its shrill whinnying reaches us.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recreations of a Sportsman, Vol. 2 of 2 Nevertheless, although we can no longer witness the floral beauties of the garden, nor hear the note of the linnet or the lark, we may still enjoy the delight of a stroll among the hedge-rows sparkling with their abundant berries, and decked with the hawthorn, the wild rose, the bramble, briory, privet, honeysuckle, elder, holly, and deadly nightshade; or moralize over the fall of the leaf amidst the rich harmonious shades of the forests and woods, stripped of their summer attire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sporting Scenes and Sundry Sketches, Vol. 2 of 2: Being the Miscellaneous Writings of J. Cypress, Jr. The thunderbolts of Jove had triumphed, and impious Typhaeus stretched his prostrate length along the groaning earth. Glad Sicily was laid upon the conquered monster, to keep him down; for Jupiter knew well enough there'd be another bloody fight, if ever he got up. Upon his hundred heads rested alarmed old AEtna, covering all save a few long straggling locks. The imposition of such heavy weight, of stone, and wood, and water, bore not the vanquished foe, with dutiful submission; bore not the inhumation, and thanked the hand that buried him; but up against the blackened sky, ingrate, from his rebellious bowels, belched such showers of ashes, and clouds of smoke, mixed up with lava and lumps of coke, that Ocean roared with fear, and AEtna's peaceful seats reeled, and rolled, to and fro, with terror and dismay. The God of Tartarus upstarted at the din, heard in his house profound, all trembling, lest his roof should suddenly be cracked, and daylight enter, and the ghosts get out, and he be overwhelmed with suits for the escape.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Silver Fields: And Other Sketches of a Farmer-Sportsman After many downfalls of snow by night and day, everything of lesser height and sheer uprightness than buildings and trees is buried in universal whiteness. Sometimes the snow flutters down and silently alights like immense flocks of birds. At other times it descends as silently, but like the continuous falling of a gray veil shutting one in from all the world lying farther away than his nearest outbuildings. Another snowfall comes blown by howling winds in long slants to the earth and whirled and tossed along the fields blurring their surface in a frozen crust. Then comes a day when the wind quits buffeting the snow from this side and that and stands still, debating which way it shall blow next, while the sun burns into the cold blue sky's eastern rim, runs its short course over the dazzling northern fields, and burns its way out behind the glorified western mountains. When the sun is highest the air bites cheeks and nose and fingers with a sharp chill, and one feels its teeth gnawing his toes through his boots if he does not bestir them.
