Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Age of Elizabeth Some men were content with the 'old state of things, either from interested motives, or from real love' for that M form of worship in which they had been born meaning and bred. Others wished to, keep the old system but make a few alterations in it: they believed the government of the Church to be the right one, and to be, moreover, quite necessary, though they thought that it had been carelessly carried on, and needed improvement. Others declared that they could find no authority' in Scripture for the existing system of the Church, and wished to'change it altogether. Gradually men had to range themselves on one side or the other. Either they thought that in and through the Church only did man have communion with God; or they thought that Grid would receive any man who faithfully turned to Him. This was the broad distinction between the two parties we shall call Catholics and Protestants. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. 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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tower or Throne: A Romance of the Girlhood of Elizabeth Pon a wild March night, nearly three hundred years ago, a man lurked under a window Of a gloomy castle, and awaited a signal from one within. It was a bitter night, and, as the man crouched close to the wall, he muttered to himself, and ground his teeth in impatient fury. At last, when three O'clock of the morning had passed, the window above was Opened and a woman's hand, slim and white, dropped down through the gloom a sapphire ring. No word was spoken, the shining circlet was enough. The watcher groped for and found the signal in the grasses at his feet; then he mounted, with all speed, a horse which had been tethered near by, and rode like mad through the storm and darkness, to bear the news to Scotland's king, that Elizabeth, the mighty queen, was dead; and that he now reigned in her stead.

Download or read book The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age written by Frances Yates and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-08-27 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is hard to overestimate the importance of the contribution made by Dame Frances Yates to the serious study of esotericism and the occult sciences. To her work can be attributed the contemporary understanding of the occult origins of much of Western scientific thinking, indeed of Western civilization itself. The Occult Philosophy of the Elizabethan Age was her last book, and in it she condensed many aspects of her wide learning to present a clear, penetrating, and, above all, accessible survey of the occult movements of the Renaissance, highlighting the work of John Dee, Giordano Bruno, and other key esoteric figures. The book is invaluable in illuminating the relationship between occultism and Renaissance thought, which in turn had a profound impact on the rise of science in the seventeenth century. Stunningly written and highly engaging, Yates' masterpiece is a must-read for anyone interested in the occult tradition.

An we be not let on our way with any farther molestation from these light-heeled gentlemen of the road, we must reach a halting-place erelong. I would it were I, not you, who had felt their cold steel; but once let us see ourselves free from this wood, and it will fare ill if we find not a hostelry where we can get rest and shelter for the night. The road is something better now. Canst make shift to push on faster? It would be safer to be clear of the forest before the sun sets." The speaker was a tall, spare man of some seven or eight and twenty summers, whose thin brown face, keen eyes, and quick, watchful movements seemed to indicate that he had been brought up to the profession of arms, and that he had seen service under hotter suns than those of his native England.
