Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sun on the Night Some of the most successful of his poems are those in which Wildman's interest in his region and in his religion join. I am thinking of such a poem as To Our Lady of Prompt Succor, Patroness of New Orleans - a charming poem in which devo tion to Our Lady Is given a special context by the evocation of the local scene with its pervasive eof fee odors and the weeds on the levee and the ex citing, blunt smell of the river. The sense of place helps to give point and meaning to the timeless prayer, and the quality of the city, the splendid, foolish city, is particularized by the ways in which it is related - in its devotion and in its failure of devotion - to its Patroness. The poem represents a. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Book of Cambridge Verse Classic Reprint written by Ernest Edward Kellett and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the author's personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.

Download or read book Being of the Sun written by Ramón Sender Barayón and published by HarperCollins Publishers. This book was released on 1973 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Being of the Sun is the sequel to Alicia Bay Laurel's classic, best-selling guide to bohemian country folkways, Living on the Earth. Co-written with author, avant-garde composer and solar yogi Ramon Sender, Being of the Sun opens as a guide to creating one's own religion, and then offers a compendium of spiritual practices the authors found valuable. Like Living On The Earth, Being of the Sun is entirely handwritten in Alicia's flowing cursive script and illustrated on every page with her line drawings, a shining example of her immensely influential original book design. However, unlike the simple brown lines and cover of Alicia's first book, Being of the Sun's design features purple ink throughout, a colorful cover, plus a dozen full color illustrations within. Ramon created sheet music of original spiritual songs he and Alicia wrote for the book. Featured in the Sonoma County Museum's spring 2002 exhibit, Utopia Then and Now, Being of the Sun is a window on hippie life in the early 70's, and a cult classic among nature-worshippers to this day."--Amazon.com.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Touch of Sun: And Other Stories At half past five the night watchman, on his way from town, stopped at the superintendent's gate, ran up the blazing path, and thrust a newspaper between the dark blue canvas cur tains that shaded the entrance of the porch. For hours the house had slept behind its heat defenses, every shutter closed, yards of piazza blind and canvas awning fastened down. The sun, a ball of fire, went slowly down the west. Rose-vines drooped against the hanging lat tices, printing their watery lines of split bam boo with a shadow-pattern of. Leaf and flower. The whole house-front was decked with dead roses, or roses blasted in full bloom, as if to celebrate with appropriate insignia the passing of the hottest day of the year. Half-way down the steps the watchman stopped, surprised by a voice from behind the curtains. He came back in answer to his name. A thin white hand parted the curtain an inch or two. There was the flicker of a fan held against the light. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In the darkness he could scarcely see the men nearest him rolled up in their blankets. The jungle was silent except for the wind in the trees and the occasional whinny of a horse on the picket line. Finally, the clouds scurrying to the east ward before the wind were great rifted patches, with a star here and there glimmer ing through. Captain Ballard rose to his feet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Day in the Moon Behind us the sun had set and night was coming on with a perfectly clear Sky. We were walking along a footpath among clumps of heath and furze. A herdsman was singing as he Slowly brought back his cattle to their Shed, and gradually as the night came on the thousand sounds Of Earth were hushed. One might have said that Nature was assuming a recollected Silence the better to prepare man to feel the charm of the heavens that were soon all studded with stars. And now, as the tints Of the landscape faded away, my childish imagination was full Of delight. The wide unbroken plain extended to the hori zon, which it seemed to touch, and I thought that the sea must present much the same appearance. Here and there the thickets of high-growing shrubs stood out in dark patches on the ground, and I imagined they were like great waves. The clumps of pines scattered here and there farther oh, black.
