"Not an hour will pass, Nay, scarce the turning of the smallest glass, Without the merry clamour of my bells. In sooth, I fear they'll banish funeral knells, And set the mourners dancing!

Book A Book of Cambridge Verse  Classic Reprint

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The King's Highway If the mere accumulation of money be a good thing, then Nicholas Lloyd had accomplished something on which he might congratulate himself. He was certainly a rich man. Without being either good, or wise, or great, he had overcome the world; that is, he had broken into its treasure-houses, and helped himself to gold and silver, to houses and lands, and to whatsoever represents the wealth for which so many men give their lives and lose their souls. This struggle had left indelible marks on the man, both physical and spiritual; and he was mutilated body and soul, though he knew it not. Indeed, he was rather proud of his cold, unruffled mien, and of that hardness of heart and head which no game of Wall Street could intoxicate.

This book was released on 2023-03-07 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *** Sanctuary is sometimes used loosely as synonymous with refuge but Geoffrey Care’s book examines the true early meaning of sanctuary as applied by the church which gave respite, albeit for a limited time, from both authority and the mob. His diligent research takes us through a series of delightful cameo sketches of those who sought sanctuary and in so doing gives us an insight into mediaeval life and times... Keith Best, Barrister, former MP and Chief Executive of both the Immigration Advisory Service and Freedom from Torture and a member of the Foreign Secretary’s Panel on Torture Prevention. *** This is a remarkable book on the subject of sanctuary by Geoffrey Care. This issue is of increasing urgency and international importance. ...Geoffrey’s book will appeal to many as a book that covers a serious topic in an appealing form.... His publication is timely and compassionate. Bernar Moody, Beverley.

Book John Bell s Record  Classic Reprint

Download or read book John Bell s Record Classic Reprint written by Constitutional Union Party and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Bell's Record The following passage occurs in a speech delivered by Mr. Bell in the House of Representatives, on the 10th of February, 1829, on a bill for the preservation and repair of the Cumberland road: "While I am upon the subject of this diversity of opinion which exists as to the safest mode of construing the Constitution. I hope it will not be considered improper or presumptuous in me to make a remark or two in regard to the two great parties which divide this country upon all questions of this kind. They had their origin as far back as the formation of the Federal compact. Their foundations were laid in the difference of sentiment which prevailed at that time, as to the wisdom of the provisions of that instrument. They are, in short, the fruit of that discord of opinions and feelings, without a compromise of which at the time, we should have had no Constitution at all. One opinion was, that sufficient power was not conferred u)on the Federal Government to assure the quiet, happiness, and prosperity of the country; while the opinion of others was, that the power actually conceded would prove too strong for the preservation of liberty. The most zealous and active of the partizans on both sides never abandoned their creeds; both parties became sufficiently powerful to propagate their opinions; and as one or the other predominated in the administration of the Government, a tincture c(the favorable notions of each was infused into its measures. Both have sought, by construction, to make the Constitution what they wished it to be in fact: the one by enlarging its powers beyond its letter and spirit, the other by narrowing them down to the standard of their wishes. Although it will be seen that I know and feel what party has had the ascendency for several years past, and where the great danger is, yet it may be said that both these great parties are in some degree hostile, not to liberty, not to their country, but to the Constitution as it is written; to that instrument which we are bound by the most sacred obligations to support; to that instrument, to which, for one, I am disposed to cling, with or without such modifications as maybe effected by amendment, Both the great parties to which I have alluded, seem to me to have abandoned the principle of compromise. I would adhere to it as the only principle by which the States were able to agree upon any compact, and without an acquiescence in which, we are not destined long to enjoy the blessings of the one adopted. He, sir, who shall renounce the extremes of both these great parties, as dangerous to order and union; he, who, by his talents, experience and weight of character shall succeed in placing himself at the head of a great constitutional party, and shall become the advocate of the administration of the Government upon the principle of compromise, as it was understood to have operated in the formation of the Constitution, will deserve the highest gratitude of his country." [See Congressional Debates, vol. 5, page 349.] It cannot but be regarded as a most extraordinary coincidence, that more than thirty years after the utterance of these opinions, "a great Constitutional party" should rise up, which, "renouncing the extremes" of both the other great parties in the country, "as dangerous to order and union," should be led by its high estimate of Mr. Bell's "talents, experience, and weight of character," to select him to lead them in a contest for "the administration of the Government upon the principle of compromise, as it. was understood to have operated in the formation of the Constitution!" Mr. Bell in 1832. His Speech on the Tariff, June 8, 1832. - A Plea for the Union - Duty of a Representative. With the dangers which threatened the Union in 1832, in consequence of the intense discontent which prevailed in the southern Slates, and particularly in South Carolina, at the working of the protective tariff, man

Even in the cool nook which the children had selected, with the water gliding beneath their feet, and the thick branches meeting overhead, the heat was oppressive. Hugh! Your line!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The King These are the questions with which the King, in the days in which Rosner describes him, is shown as tormenting himself. Not a strong figure, but one for which one cannot but feel compassion. He did not make his own nature, nor did those about him counsel him wisely. Even the ground plan of the Great General Staff was based on what turned out to be a colossal military error. It took insufficient account of the implications of superior sea-power. The result was an effective blockade, and the ultimate weakening of the foundations of the German Army. None of these things were made clear to the Emperor, and yet he had accepted the fullest responsibility for their consequences.

Book Desert Queen

Download or read book Desert Queen written by Janet Wallach and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2010-11-30 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive biography, mesmerizing and “richly textured ” (Chicago Tribune), that inspired the acclaimed documentary, Letters from Baghdad. With a new Afterword "Desert Queen...plucks Gertrude Bell out of the shadow of Lawrence of Arabia." —The Boston Globe Here is the story of Gertrude Bell, who explored, mapped, and excavated the Arab world throughout the early twentieth century. Recruited by British intelligence during World War I, she played a crucial role in obtaining the loyalty of Arab leaders, and her connections and information provided the brains to match T. E. Lawrence's brawn. After the war, she played a major role in creating the modern Middle East and was, at the time, considered the most powerful woman in the British Empire. In this masterful biography, Janet Wallach shows us the woman behind these achievements—a woman whose passion and defiant independence were at odds with the confined and custom-bound England she left behind. Too long eclipsed by Lawrence, Gertrude Bell emerges at last in her own right as a vital player on the stage of modern history, and as a woman whose life was both a heartbreaking story and a grand adventure.
