Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wrayford's Ward, Vol. 2 of 3: And Other Tales But that dull country home, that quiet village, the still life which ensued, my good mother's orderly habits and prosaic ways, after the feverish ambitions of my husband, told upon me more than I had bargained for, and robbed me of much of my natural lightness and brightness. I could not see to the end; I felt alone and guideless in the world. I did not even know how com pletely my life was bound up with Gilbert's until after he had left me. I was alone in my mother's home, with a host of grave thoughts for company. There was not much to treasure up, to shed happy tears over, as the days went on, and my heart sank more and more.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eben Holden's Last Day a-Fishing Always, when our train went roaring into the quiet village, we used to look out of the car-window down across the river and a smooth stretch of fields into the edge of the little town. At a small, familiar opening in the shade trees, almost half a mile from the train, we never failed to see the flicker of a white handkerchief. It signalled their welcome. And then-well, I doubtif any one may have in this world a better moment. Yes - that was years ago, and there are strangers in the old home, but to this day every time I enter Hillsborough I look for that flick er of white, away off among the trees. That day the signal greeted us, and was only one of many joys, for it was a day of a thousand, warm, and full of the music of birds and of bees' wings and the odor of new blossoms and a great happiness. Elizabeth Brower stood at the gate, and beyond her we could see Uncle Eb on the veranda, sitting in his arm-chair. The clear woman put her fingers on her lips, and we knew what it meant. Uncle Eb had fallen asleep in the warm sunlight. We greeted her with hushed voices, and approached the venerable man, and sat down at his feet, smilingand looking up at his fine old face. He continued to sleep, all unconscious that we were near him. Soon we heard him call in his dreams, just above a whisper: Here Fred! Here Fred! It was the name of our old dog, dead these many years. His nap must have taken him far back - per haps into that long, westward journey through woods and fields. I took his hand in mine. He came out of his dreams with a start, and looked up at me.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundling: A Village Tale But the peaceful quiet was broken By the hurried tread of feet, And a baby, soundly sleeping, Was left helpless on the street Then the morning broke in crimson, As if blushing to behold, In the midst of so much shelter, One poor lamb without a fold. From a dreamy sleep awakened, With the cry of one distressed, Seeking wildly some fond mother, To enfold it to her breast While the little lips are trembling, And the tears of sorrow flow, Pleading in their liquid language For compassion on its woe. Why so frightened, little trembler? There are Christian homes all 'round, Other mothers will caress you, Though your own were never found Lo! Yon proudly lifted steeple.
