Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches in History and Poetry Of the ten papers, which have been named Sketches, contained in this volume, some were given to the public in periodicals by the author himself. Others are now printed for the first time. The date of the earliest is 1860; of the latest 1884, the year before the authors death. Four of them were given as Lectures in the chair of Poetry, Oxford, viz., VI., VII., IX., X. All the subjects, save one, are taken from Scottish History or Poetry, fields in which the writer showed a lifelong and special interest. One or two of the papers may be singled out as but slight in treatment of the subject; yet all of them contain passages which are highly characteristic of the author, and some are worthy of him at his best - as, for example, "The Songs of Scotland before Burns." They thus seem to me to be well deserving of collection and publication in one volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Fight: Poems and Sketches Having lived, practically, all my life, side by side with the french-canadian people, I have grown to admire and love them, and I have felt that while many of the English speaking public know, perhaps as well as myself, the french-canadian of the cities, yet they have had little opportunity of becoming acquainted with the habitant, therefore I have endeavoured to paint a few types, and, in doing this, it has seemed to me that I could best attain the object in view by having my friends tell their own tales in their own way, as they would relate them to English speaking auditors not conversant with the French tongue.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches in Lyric Prose and Verse Spring, passing on her way, came to a hill-crest, where Ennui reclined, wrapped in the sleep of weariness. Upon the crusty leaves of winter's hoarding his frame lay motionless, in utter lassitude. So gentle was the tread of Spring, so mute her breath, that he awakened not at her approach. Perceiving him she smiled and drew near. Bending above him, she lifted from her brow a fragrant garland and placed it lightly on his own, and from her tasseled apron she drew a hundred roses, binding them with the tendrils of soft mosses, as a pillow for his head. The trailing vines about her feet she laced into a verdant spread with which she covered him, and dotted it with petaled stars of choicest hue; and in the heart of every flower, and through each palpitating leaf she breathed the fragrance of her own sweet self. With sunshine smiles she chased the shivering gnomes of winter from the surrounding wood, and from the silences she beckoned waiting birds and bade them sing a rhapsody. All this accomplished she stood apart, and with a silent challenge moved her awakening wand o'er dreaming Ennui.
