If you in courtesy should look With favour on its pages claim The title deed and write your name Here on this page. To you who know The glamour of the passing show, Sublime and sordid, trivial, great, But life, - this book I dedicate. As casual lookers-on we meet Here at some corner of the street. It's good to know you see it too, Smile, sigh and wonder when I do; That you discern the crooked jest Of contrast 'twixt our worst and best, Humour is ever friendship's test. I like to know you hear the call Of all things sad, neglected, small; Thrill to the magic of the wind, Love country, town and your own kind, Sinners and saints and sea and sky Just as they are, for so do I. Then let this book I fain would mend Be yours, my friend. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Oxford written by Robert Montgomery and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oxford: A Poem "Oh! none whose souls have felt a mighty name Thrill to their centre with its sound of fame, Whose hearts have warmed at wisdom, truth, or worth, And all that makes the heaven we meet on earth, Can tread the ground by genius often trod, Nor feel a nature more akin to God!" A Third edition of the present Work having been required, the Author has endeavoured to correct some inaccuracies which prevailed in the first, and to remove those verbal innovations "quas aut incuria fudit, Aut humana parum cavit natura." The writer needs no oracle to remind him of the many imperfections in this work which yet remain; or to convince him how unequal it is to the dignity and interest of his subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oxford Poetry I met a sage at the break of day, And he welcomed me with a smile; He spoke his words of encouragement And we parted after a while. I met a fair lady when all was bright, And the sun was burning on high; She turned to me with her deep, dark eyes And sold herself for a lie. I met a child when the world was dark And I was drear and alone; The child spoke naught; But the dark became light; The day of glory had come. The barren ground shone with splendour high, Bare branches dripped with gold, And the earth was transformed to heaven, Just as the sage foretold.

This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oxford Year: And Other Oxford Poems About half the compositions in this volume have appeared in various periodicals, chiefly the Oxford Magazine and the old Oxford Review in the days when it was a weekly and not a daily paper. Certain allusions may perhaps be a little obsolete to the present generation, such as that, for instance, to the 'blue testamur.' But in all these cases it has been thought better to leave the verses as they were originally written. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Oxford Lectures on Poetry Classic Reprint written by A. C. Bradley and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oxford Lectures on Poetry This volume consists of lectures delivered during my tenure of the Chair of Poetry at Oxford and not included in Shakespearean Tragedy. Most of them have been enlarged, and all have been revised. As they were given at intervals, and the majority before the publication of that book, they contained repetitions which I have not found it possible wholly to remove. Readers of a lecture published by the University of Manchester on English Poetry and German Philosophy in the Age of Wordsworth will pardon also the restatement of some ideas expressed in it. The several lectures are dated, as I have been unable to take account of most of the literature on their subjects published since they were delivered. They are arranged in the order that seems best to me, but it is of importance only in the case of the four which deal with the poets of Wordsworth's time.

Download or read book Lectures on Poetry written by Francis Hastings Doyle and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Poetry: Delivered at Oxford I apprehend that the University, though she exacts nothing of the kind, in some degree expects that those whom she has honoured with her Professorships should give what they have to give sooner or later to the world. Such being the case, I need advance no other reason for publishing these Lectures. The lectures which I have delivered in my time are of course more in number than those contained in this volume, but owing to a variety of accidents my manuscripts fell into confusion, and have many of them gone astray. I am obliged, therefore, to content myself with what comes readiest to my hand. Of the Lectures that are missing I rather regret some, particularly two on 'Jason and Medea' and one on the tragedy of 'Hamlet.' My examination of 'Hamlet' ought to have come in between what I say of 'Othello' and what I say of 'Macbeth, ' and its absence leaves rather a disastrous gap in the Shakspere series.

Download or read book Oxford Poetry written by Alan Porter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oxford Poetry: 1921 The E D I T O R S of this year's Oxford Poetry, the work of undergraduates who have been in residence since the date of the last collection, have attempted to make the volume more representative of Poetry and less representative merely of Oxford than its predecessors. There is always at Oxford a fashion in verse as much as in dress, and, to judge from the bulk of contributions submitted, this fash ion has not changed materially since last noted and recorded in print. Mr jones-smith, of Balliol, still writes musically of brimming chalices, vermilion lips, chrysoprase, lotuses, arabesques and darkling spires against glimmering skies Miss smith-jones, of Somerville, is equally faithful to her scarlet sins, beloved hearts, little clutching hands, little patter ing feet, rosaries, eternity, roundabouts, and glim mering spires against darkling skies. Exclusion of these worn properties has given the fewer writers than usual represented here, extended elbow room, and a chance of showing some individual capacity for better or worse.

Download or read book Corydon written by Reginald Fanshawe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Corydon: An Elegy in Memory of Matthew Arnold and Oxford The general form and subject of this poem are defined sumciently on \the title page as an Elegy in memory of Matthew Arnold and Oxford. The title itself, Corydon, was naturally suggested 'by Arnold's own Thyrsis, an Elegy peculiarly dear to those that love both Oxford and poetry. To all such I would fain h0pe Corydon may make some appeal, for its subject's sake, if not for any merit of its own. The fuller meaning of the poem I have sought to indicate by the prosaic device of a detailed table of contents, so that I may dispense with a longer preface and all notes of explanation.
