Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lost Chimes, and Other Poems The Lost Chimes "Count not the cost, a thousand more or less Is not the question, but a perfect tone, A clang as clear as the Italian sky, As strong and joyful as the victor's cry, As deep and mellow as the ocean's moan, And tender as a mother's fond caress." "And let there be no stint of pure alloy, Of bronze and silver, no, not even of gold, Yea, let this be thy very master-piece, In all its making, - if it doth me please, Half of my fortune shall to thee be told, And to its praise my life I shall employ." Thus spake Sordino, noble Florentine, To one who was renowned for casting bells, Who now was asked to make a set of chimes, A task he had accomplished many times, But this, he thought, the highest skill compels, And yet the work he promised to begin. But first for thoughts and dreams he leisure found, For consecration to the work at hand, Since this the glory of his life should be, A grand creation, a sweet symphony Of human life, which all might understand, Their souls re-echoed in the liquid sound. II He was a man of many changing moods, Impetuous, like mighty Angelo, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Chimes of the Times written by Tom Burgoyne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chimes of the Times: And Other Rhymes To the readers of Chimes of the Times and Other Rhymes the writer desires to say: This book contains the first three and one-half years' composition of a blind composer and writer as published weekly under the heading, All Spice and Ginger, in a column known as Tom's Corner, in a small weekly news and advertising paper called The Booster which is distributed in nearly three thousand homes. It also contains a number of other poems written by request for schools and organizations, and some that have not appeared elsewhere. Nearly every one who earnestly begins a piece of work has a definite pur pose in view; he must have, or his work would soon result in failure. The writer belongs to the majority of those who so begin, and in placing all the poems under one cover and giving them a name his purpose is three fold, and that the readers may better appreciate his efforts along the road to success, he will state what those purposes are: First: The writer desires to teach the public that intelligence is not in material eyesight - many people do not seem to realize this truth - and those of the blind who are in daily contact with the masses frequently are forced to suppress a smile when they hear expressions that give evidence how deep rooted this thought is in the public mind. Many seem to wonder how it is possible that the blind can add 2 and 2 and get 4, and there are many other thoughtsalmost as absurd. All the blind ask is a fair chance to demonstrate their ability, and after the first few months' shock wears away not many of them will be seen selling lead pencils or turning a hand organ, both occupations, however, being legitimate and show ing willingness, effort and determination. It is not sympathy that the blind seek nor patronizing ways that they desire. To be sure they appreciate a helping hand or pair of eyes to assist them over a busy crossing or an ice covered walk, but when the blind can work out their own problems in an independent way they are much more pleased and have advanced themselves' for greater efforts in the future, and each victory gives them greater confidence to forge ahead.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chimes From Nature A great and manifest change, amounting to a thorough mental and religious resurrection, came over Mr. Burns when about twenty years of age. He then awakened to an earnest sense of his manifold deficiencies. He became sensible of the utterly neglected and uncultivated state of his intellectual faculties. He felt that he knew nothing, and had learned nothing, but implicit obedience to the calls of routine, drudgery, and bondage. The simplest elements of education, except reading, were entirely beyond the boundaries of his acquired knowledge. But, no sooner was he impressed with the conviction of his deplorable condition, than he set himself manfully to rectify the evil. Without teacher, or any assistance whatever, he applied himself to the study of arithmetic, writing, grammar, phonography, and composition and, whilst thus engaged in his searching after all knowledge, he abandoned the plough, and joined the police force of Newcastle. Shortly after the institution of our School Board, he was appointed one of its officers, the duties of which situation he at present discharges.
