Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beyond the Marshes Have you ever caught the scent of the clover as you were whirled away by the train beyond the city on a summer's day and sped through the rich pasture lands? And do you remem ber how you stepped forth at the first halting-place to secure a sprig of the sweet, homely flower that had spoken to you so elo quently in its own language, and how you pressed it in your book P Does not its perfume remain with you till this day? And every now and then a fragrance is waited to our inner senses as we read some simple story which is to us as a breath of the clover, bringing us a message of sweet ness and beauty, and going straight to our hearts with thepower that belongs to the secrets which lie hidden at our life's core. And this sweet prairie idyll is surely one of those fra rant messages which lays its ho d on us as we pause for a moment in the midst of our fevered lives and anxious thoughts, and step across the threshold of that chamber where we must needs put our shoes from off our feet, for the place whereon we stand is holy ground. And as we press on again to life's duties, may we bear with us something of the precious perfume diffused by plants which are divine in their origin and which must be divine in their influence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Marsh Island One August afternoon the people who drove along the east road of a pleasant Sus sex County town were much interested in the appearance of a young man who was hard at work before a slender easel near the wayside. Most of the spectators felt a strong desire to linger; if any had happened to be afoot they would surely have looked over the artist's shoulder; as it was, they inspected with some contempt the bit of scenery which was honored with so much at tention. This 'was in no way remarkable. They saw a familiar row of willows and a foreground of pasture, broken here and there by gray rocks, while beyond a tide river the marshes seemed to stretch away to the end of the world.

Download or read book Rachel Marr Classic Reprint written by Morley Roberts and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rachel Marr Beyond the twin headlands that made Morna into a little fishing harbour, and sheltered its narrow strip of sand, the round moon hung clouded in the midnight sky. The shadows of the carved headlands were obscured by a tender mist of dissipated light; the sea was shadow to the shore, while on the horizon, where the moon shone clearer, a silver line accentuated the lucid darkness of the nearer waters of the land. In that silver showed the lofty canvas of a ship drifting 'eastward on the flood which inshore now began to slacken. The waters lapped less insistently upon the rocks; the silence of the night deepened sensibly; the whispers of the salt marsh, through which a slow stream found its way to the sea, grew fainter still; the eternal music of the pinewood above the little marsh ran off into the very ghost of a vibrant and musical murmur among its loftiest branches. It was midnight, full moon and full fiood, -and the warm world rested. The house's of the little village, which could hardly be seen from the cove, since most lay behind a barrier of rock, the shoreward buttress of the eastern headland, were all asleep. Some of its few men were far out at sea long - line fishing in the great sweep of the tides. They would not return till the morning when they came from the eastward on the ebb and met the young flood and the breeze it brought with it from the west. A few boats lay upon the higher sands and shingle: one was moored beyond low-water mark, where it rested as quietly as any rock. For two long hours Morna had been still.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Bedford of the Past The following sketches were written currente ca lamo in 1875 for the New Bedford Evening Standard, with no intention of further publication. Beheving, however, that they have much of local historic value for the lover of bygone days, we have decided to publish them in book form, not only for their more sure preservation, but also to show the keen interest felt by the author in his native town. Editors. Nonqurrr, mass., Aug. 12, 1903. MY dear friends, anna and walton cmrsom I thank you for giving me an opportunity of reading some of your honored father's sketches of old New Bed ford. The names are mostly unknown to me, but I can easily see how valuable these reminiscences may be to the descendants of these Old citizens in time to come, and how pleasant to some even now. I find a certain charm in the very desultorincss of these papers, just as there is in an aimless ramble over country pastures, fields, and meadows, picking a flower here and there. Just such a ramble I had many a time with your father himself among the marshes and woods of this lovely Nonquitt. Why he chose to ask me to be his companion, I never clearly knew; but his talk was much like these papers, and I found quite as many wild flowers in it as we picked by the way, flowers Of poetical quotation or noble sentiment or genuine insight into ideal truth. The world of today is much the poorer for the passage Of so simple-hearted and nncor rupted a man as he indubitably was.
