Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Oliver Wendell Holmes In a quaint old gambrel-roofed house still standing on Cambridge Common, Oliver Wendell Holmes - poet, professor, "beloved physician" - was born, on the twenty-ninth of August, 1809. His father, the Rev. Abiel Holmes, was the pastor of the "First Church" in Cambridge - That ancient church whose lofty tower, Beneath the loftier spire, Is shadowed when the sunset hour Clothes the tall shaft in fire. Here, in Revolutionary times, General Washington frequently worshipped, and the old homestead itself was the headquarters of the American army during the siege of Boston.

The Angel. - Why thus, apart, - the swift-winged herald spake, - Sit ye with silent lips and unstrung lyres While the trisagion's blending chords awake In shouts of joy from all the heavenly choirs? The First Spirit. - Chide not thy sisters, - thus the answer came; - Children of earth, our half-weaned nature clings To earth's fond memories, and her whispered name Untunes our quivering lips, our saddened strings; For there we loved, and where we love is home, Home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts, Though o'er us shine the jasper-lighted dome: - The chain may lengthen, but it never parts! Sometimes a sunlit sphere comes rolling by, And then we softly whisper, - can it be? And leaning toward the silvery orb, we try To hear the music of its murmuring sea; To catch, perchance, some flashing glimpse of green, Or breathe some wild-wood fragrance, wafted through About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Vol. 2: Songs in Many Keys, Etc It is greatly to be regretted that the Frankland Mansion no longer exists. It was accidentally burned on the 2std of January, 1858, a year or two after the first sketch of this ballad was Written. A visit to it was like stepping out of the century into the years before the Revolution. A new house, similar in plan and arrangements to the old one, has been built upon its site. And the terraces, the clump of box, and the lilacs doubtless remain to bear witness to the truth of this story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oliver Wendell Holmes Year Book I don't believe anything I've written is as good as it seemed to me when I wrote it, - the Old Master stopped, for he was afraid he was lying, - not much that I've written, at any rate, - he said - with a smile at the honesty which made him qualify his statement. But I do know this: I have struck a good many chords, first and last, in the consciousness of other people. I confess to a tender feeling for my little brood of thoughts. When they have been welcomed and praised it has pleased me, if at any time they have been rudely handled and spitefully entreated it has cost me a little worry. I don't despise reputation, and I should like to be remembered as having said something worth lasting well enough to last.

Book excerpt: The Poetical Works of Oliver Wendell Holmes - Volume 04: Songs in Many Keys by Oliver Wendell Holmes THE piping of our slender, peaceful reedsWhispers uncared for while the trumpets bray;Song is thin air; our hearts' exulting playBeats time but to the tread of marching deeds, Following the mighty van that Freedom leads, Her glorious standard flaming to the day!The crimsoned pavement where a hero bleedsBreathes nobler lessons than the poet's lay.Strong arms, broad breasts, brave hearts, are better worthThan strains that sing the ravished echoes dumb.Hark!

Download or read book The Poetical Works of Oliver Wendell Holmes Classic Reprint written by Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-11 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Oliver Wendell Holmes The policy has been pursued, as in the former cases, of taking the latest collee tive edition issued in the poet's lifetime as the pattern to be followed both in text and in arrangement, but the opportunity has been used to include a few poems which were written after the latest edition appeared or had by some accident failed to receive the author's attention when he was making up his final collection; no attempt, however, has been made, in gathering the early poems, to go outside of the volumes in which they were originally included. It is assumed that Dr. Holmes when making up these volumes intentionally disregarded some of the poems scattered through periodicals. This is confirmed by the attitude which he took when his attention was called to the omission upon the occasion of the issue of the Riverside Edition. He refused to give them a refuge even in an appendix. The arrangement here is the same as in the Riverside Edition, with some slight modification, chiefly caused by the introduction of new material. In accordance with the plan of this series and with Dr. Holmes's original intention when the Riverside Edition was prepared, the Juvenilia are placed in an appendix in smaller type. Throughout the volume, whether in head-notes or in those placed in the appendix, the editor's work is distinguished by the use of brackets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Letters of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Vol. 1 of 2 To the reader I have only a word to say: I fear his criticism that these volumes have too much Memoir, too little Correspondence. To this complaint, if it be made, I must plead in "confession and avoidance." The fact is that letter-writing was to Dr. Holmes an irksome task. Except to Motley and to Lowell, during their absences in Europe, he very rarely wrote spontaneously and in the way of friendship. His letters, it will be observed, were almost always written because some correspondent could not courteously be left unanswered, or under the more or less mild compulsion of some special occasion. Therefore his letters were few. Every effort has been made to collect them, and the result is spread very fully before the reader. Nothing has been omitted which, by any liberality of-judgment, could be supposed to have any interest: on the contrary, notes and letters are printed, which would hardly have been selected had there been an embarras de richesses.
