Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Now for the First Time Collected Tennyson's long life of eighty-four years almost equalled in its duration the combined lives of Keats, Shelley, and Byron. Unlike these impassioned boys, who passed their lives at issue with their generation, Tennyson was born into a happier time, eagerly expecting its great poet and anxious with welcome. He was protected all his days from criticism and annoyance by a phalanx of friendly admirers, who preached him in every direction and encouraged him with their applause. No "wood notes wild" came from him; the gems in his poetry are pretty or beautiful or now and again perfect - but all owing such perfection as they possess more to art than to nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Miscellaneous Stories, Sketches, Etc: Now Chiefly Collected for the First Time Those whose minds were half-formed or unevenly balanced, and not to be looked upon as genuine or worthy pro fessions for rational beings. Samuel Lover, who was born in Dublin 011 Feb. 24th, 1797, surprised his respectable Philistine of a father by showing at a very early age a decided taste for those amusements which were deemed to be beneath the consideration of a stock-broker, and he seriously exasperated the same honest broker by very clearly stating his unhesitating preference for music and art rather than for the contemplation of the rise and fall of stocks and shares - even to the extent of adopting the study of them as a profession. He was a mere infant when he was discovered one day in a distant part of the house strumming on an Old piano the tune Of Moore's song Will you come to the bower? A musical friend of the Lovers' declared the boy had a remarkable aptitude for music, and urged the father to buy him a good piano and have him taught. This was eventually done, and the love of music, engendered in him by his mother's singing Of Irish melodies, was thus promoted and developed.

Download or read book Ashley and Other Stories Classic Reprint written by Henry Wood and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ashley, and Other Stories The following stories are now published in a collected form for the first time. To the reader, therefore, they will he virtually as new matter. It will be observed that in the first three stories some of the characters are reproduced, though, in one instance, merely a name - that of Chase. Mrs. Henry Wood intended, had she lived, to weave these stories into one romance. How this would have been accomplished by the experienced hand of the author of "East Lynne" we do not doubt. Fresh plot and new characters would have been introduced into the narrative, so connecting one story with another. But the pen was laid aside before the purpose was carried out; and it only remains for the reader to imagine for himself a chain of circumstances by which these now separate threads would have been gathered into a consecutive and complete whole. We have stated the fact because it undoubtedly adds to the interest of the following pages, which are amongst the most graphic and vigorous of the stories written by Mrs. Henry Wood. One more remark may he made. It may be said by some that the leading incident, the three-fold tragedy, in the story of "Mr. Castonel," is far-fetched and improbable. But truth, we know, is stranger than fiction, and these incidents in the career of the surgeon are founded upon absolute fact.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Edition Definitive of Les Contes Drolatiques Now for the First Time Completely Translated Into English, Vol. 2 of 2: Collected in the Abbeys of Touraine and Brought Forth Into the Light In the winter when they of the Religion made their first appeal to arms, which was called the Tumult of Amboise, an attorney named Avenelles lent his house, situated on Rue des Marmousets, for the meetings and conventions of the Huguenots, being one of them, yet misdoubting not that the Prince de Conde, La Renaudie, and others had it in mind to kidnap the king. The said Avenelles was a red-bearded knave, smooth as a stick of licorice, pale as the devil, like all pettifoggers who burrow in the dark corners of the parliament-house, - in a word, the scurviest runagate of an advocate that ever lived, laughing at hangings, always ready to sell anything, a very Judas.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Miscellanies, Vol. 11 HE essays and lectures contained in the following pages were not included by Emerson himself in any volume of his works, but they must not, on that account be slighted. Indeed, many of them found a place in the last volumes of the posthumous collected edition, and have therefore some sort of official sanction. A few - for instance, The Senses and the Soul, the editorial preface to the Dial, and the essay on Saadi are now for the first time reprinted. The pieces vary considerably in quality, but they are far too good to be lost, and a handy collection like the present should be welcome to all admirers of the greater and better known works.
