Book excerpt: Excerpt from Six Months in India, Vol. 2 of 2 Preparations were made for dinner outside the entrance, where it was refreshing again to be in the open air, and a sumptuous banquet was laid before us, which inspired us with feelings forming a striking con trast with what we had just experienced. The sight Of the sun setting on the water from a solitary elevation was most grand and elevating. Nature has throughout all ages borne her own unvarying testimony to the holiness and greatness Of the Creator, who is ever the same, though men forget Him in their many inventions. When darkness closed in, blue torches were lighted in the temple, which produced wonderful effects of light and shade on the large columns and sculptured figures. In due time we descended to the shore, and a brilliant moon lighted us Over the waters to our homes. The schools were, of course, an early object of my attention, after my return to Bombay. I was invited to see three, for girls, on the morning of February 7; from that time until my departure, visits to the schools, and conversation with the managers, so as to understand their real wants and wishes, occupied a very large share of my time and attention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Six Months in India, Vol. 1 of 2 IT was not MY intention, when I went to India, to write an account of my travels: my visit was purely one of friendly sympathy. Circumstances recorded in the following narrative, led me to modify my original intention, and greatly extended my sphere of observa tion. The light afl'orded me by my past experience, as well as the sympathy in my work of the Supreme Go vernment and that of each Presidency, and the friendly confidence of the native inhabitants, enabled me, in my brief visit, to see and learn much which does not usually come under the notice of travellers. Every thing, invested with the charm of novelty, produced a very vivid impression on my mind; and though I had no time while in the country to record in writing many of these impressions, yet I had peculiar opportunities of comparing them with those of official gentlemen, and of experienced residents in the country, and thus of correcting or strengthening them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Summer, Vol. 2 He went on packing, and putting away with the different garments the unpleasant thoughts that he knew he should be sure to unpack with them in Rome but they would then have less poignancy. For the present he was doing the best he could, and he was not making any sort of pretences. When his trunk was locked he kindled himself a fire, and sat down before it to think of Imo gene. He began with her, but presently it seemed to be Mrs. Bowen that he was think ing of; then he knew he was dropping off to sleep by the manner in which their two ideas mixed. The fatigues and excitements of the week had been great, but he would not give way; it was too disgraceful.

I knew them much better before long, and found them excellent fellows, all very confident in their own abilities, and fully determined to make fortunes when they got out, but all with very vague ideas of India and coffee - planting, for which most of them - like myself - were bound. Amongst the other passengers were several ladies grass-widows going to look after their husbands, and young ladies going out to their parents; so there was small fear of a dull voyage.

Oh, said the Begum laughing, matters are much altered since then.

The Far East hasn't got a soul. She swapped it for a Constitution on the Eleventh of February last. Can any Constitution make up for the wear ing of Europe clothes? I saw a Jap lady just now in full afternoon calling-kit. She looked atrocious. Have you seen the later Japanese art - the pictures on the fans and in the shop win dows? They are faithful reproductions of the changed life - telegraph poles down the streets, conventionalised tram-lines, top-hats, and carpet bags in the hands of the men. The artists can make those things almost passable, but when it comes to conventionalising a Europe dress, the effect is horrible. Japan wishes to take her place among civilised nations, said the Professor. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
