Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manse Garden Whatever might be needful by way of intro duction will be found interspersed with the work; but in the mean time the Author's appellative given in the title page of this volume is such as to demand some apology. Why does he take the refuge of a common family name, instead of giving his proper designation at once? In his own defence, he begs honestly to declare he has no liking to that sort of mystery, nor is he wont to use it, never having before given any thing to the public without sending along with it whatever good or ill it might derive from his name.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manse Garden Concealment is rarely a right thing; and how far, for reasons given, the Author's hiding of his name in the first edition may be justified, it is needless now to inquire, as the attempt so quickly proved an entire failure. Whoever meditates the smallest guile would need to provide more eyes and a good memory. Some years ago, in contributing the Statistical Account of his parish, the writer took notice of a moor blackbird, which he described as a thief. The description, soon out of sight, was soon out of mind; but not so the thief, who, continuing his visits, kept alive the remembrance of his person - and was again, it seems, submitted in "The Manse Garden" to the like advertisement of his stature, visage, and the colour of his clothes.

Download or read book The Old Manse and a Few Mosses Classic Reprint written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Manse and a Few Mosses Hawthorne, like most writers of the present day, was wont to send out his stories and sketches through the magazines of his time, and to collect them after ward into volumes. He gave the felicitous title, taken from Shakespeare, to one of these collections, of Twice Told Tales, and to another, of Mosses from an Old Manse. It was when he was living in the manse, or residence of the minister at Concord, Massachusetts, that he made this collection, and by a graceful turn gave a title to it which intimated how antique, for the most part, were the stories which he had been writing; how, like the moss, they gathered about the life of an old society. The collection consists of twenty-six tales, together with an introductory chapter, descriptive of the manse itself. Four of these have been selected, also introduced by the account of the old manse, which is one of the most characteristic of Hawthorne's play ful leisurely sketches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manse at Barren Rocks For long after the separation, it remained a country of narrow valleys and forbidding hills, little sought after and little desired. But when its timber found ready market, when the hidden lakes of oil were discovered and the long rich veins of coal were found, it became the point of interest for a type of keen and calculating mind. The promoter, the money-getters, hordes of self - seekers, invaded its territory, laid low the mighty trees and disem bowled the hills. It became a workshop, grimy, black, outraged. Ou the mountains the whine of the mills; in the valleys the clatter of drills, and everywhere the dust from the coal.

Download or read book The Home Garden Classic Reprint written by Ella Rodman Church and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home Garden Is there no beauty in Pomona that we can call to our aid? For why should we everlastingly apply to Flora for everything that is beautiful in the embellishment of our gardens Fruit-trees have flowers as well, and thus they Offer us a double supply of beauty; being beautiful when in flower and beautiful when in fruit - pleasing to the eye and to the taste, and ornamental as well as useful - doubly gratifying and doubly enjoyable. Plants with bright seed-vessels are always in demand for their ornamental qualities; but, after all, these only please the eye, instead of furnishing, like the fruit-trees, entertainment for man and beast. Red-cheeked apples, it is argued, are quite as decorative as red-berried shrubs; and the bird's-eye cherry is scarcely more desirable when in flower than any other cherry, while the ripe fruit, preserves, etc., of the ordinary kind will cause the empty blossoms to go up at full sail.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bells of St. Stephen's T exactly half-past two every afternoon, the minister of St. Stephen's opened the gate of the manse garden, and walked down the street to the post office for his afternoon mail. So regular was he in this habit that the people on the Avenue could almost tell the time of day by his going, as though he were the sun. And Mrs. Harding, who lived a few gardens above, and who was an invalid suffering severely from too much money and nothing to do, often timed her afternoon arrangements by him, as she watched him from her high tower-like room.

His life, in the past, in spite of all his tinsel pomp, and the mock pageantry which surrounds him, has been one of ennui and weariness. What it is to be in the future, or how and when it will come to a close, who shall say? The probability, at present, seems to he, that all his glory will fade away, and that he will be the last of the Mogul dynasty.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spindles and Oars So they stepped through the gate close by the kirk; and though it was the gloaming, the lassie called out at the bonnie garden, with its bit of lawn, and old apple trees; and the elms beyond, where the crows built in the spring. But when she saw the house, she roared and laughed; though it was truly a fine manse, only low in the roof, and maybe not over bright for a young lassie. She danced into the room where Kirsty, the maid, had spread the supper, and looked into the chamber opening from it.

Download or read book Manderley written by Rebecca Wolff and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected by Robert Pinsky as one of five volumes published in 2001 in the National Poetry Series In the Manderley of Rebecca, Daphne du Maurier's forbidding haven of mocking ghosts and secrets that refuse to remain buried, nothing is as it seems. So in this stunning debut collection by Rebecca Wolff, cities, partners, mothers, sisters, friends, and perfect strangers all disguise their true faces, while they who seek connection are "transported from one great gaping / hole in the fabric / of our knowledge to another." No passage is too dark, no garden too tangled for the troubled dreamer of Manderley. Wolff turns a quicksilver gaze on a fluid world where both the real and the imaginary are transfigured. Tempering steely candor with a sophisticated delight in wordplay, these poems turn on a dime from the sensual to the eerie, the resigned to the hopeful, the comforting to the shocking. Each poem weaves together layers of dream, remembrance, and fantasy, distilling from romantic excess a gritty, spare language of truth-telling and surprise
