Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Princess All study is a quest of something. One seeks, in order to find. Before undertaking the study of The Princess, therefore, it is only proper to inquire toward what objects this quest may most profitably be directed. Considering the nature of the poem for it is in this that the answer is to be sought - we find that T he Princess abounds in beauty, and that its object is to set forth and illustrate a truth or truths of which the poet is profoundly con vinced. This being conceded, it follows that, while opinions are likely to vary concerning the degree or amount of beauty and of truth attained, it is improbable that any one who has qualified himself by reflection to form a judgment on the matter will assert that the poet has compassed both absolute beauty and absolute truth. In other words, we must hold ourselves prepared, how ever we may at first sight be dazzled by the many and varied excellences of the poem, to recognize in it the presence of more or less imperfection.

Download or read book The Princess Sonia written by Julia Magruder and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-07-21 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since that day—indeed, even before it—Martha had been a silent worshiper at the shrine of the princess. She had a passionate love of beauty, and her heart, for all her grave and shy exterior, was packed as full of romance as it could hold. The discovery that this beautiful being was a princess—and a Russian princess, of all others—was meet food for this appetite for the romantic; and she dreamed by the hour about this young woman's life, and wondered what it had been and was to be. She knew she could not be many years older than herself, and she wondered, with burning interest, whether she was or was not married. Sometimes she would hold to one opinion for days, and then something—a mere turn of expression, perhaps—would convert her to the opposite one. She wanted her to be unmarried, so that she might be free to construct from her imagination a beautiful future for her; and yet she dreaded to find out that she was married. There was certainly a look about the princess which contradicted Martha's ideal of her as the possessor of a fair, unwritten life page. Martha had watched her hands to see if she wore a wedding ring; but those extraordinarily beautiful hands were either loaded down with jeweled gauds of antique workmanship or else quite ringless. Still, many married women were careless about wearing their wedding rings, a thing which Martha herself could not comprehend; but she felt that this wonderful creature was removed as far as possible from her in both actuality and ideas.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rebellion of the Princess But it was an ill jest for the rogue in his clutches, and, minded to end their Sport, I shouted to him, in Russ, to look behind the water-butts for the wasp. The fat fool gaped at me in amazement, and the dwarf, darting from his covert, was running full speed for the kitchen before he spied him and made after him. But one of the men, willing to save the little beast, no doubt for the sake of the laugh, tripped the major-domo as if by accident, and down he went in the mud of the court-yard, bellowing and splashing like a whale. I laughed until the tears came into my eyes, and whether he heard me, or thought I had some hand in it, I know not, but when he got to his feet, all be daubed with mud and green slime, he shook his two great fists at me and shrieked defiance; at which I laughed the more.

'in old times, without knowing so much of their strangeness and awful ness as we do, people were yet more afraid of mountains. But then somehow they had not come to see how beau tiful they are as well as awful, and they hated them - and what people hate they must fear.

"The spring makes you homesick, Aunt Eleanor," remarked the deep, pleasant voice of the man standing beside her in the broad window. They were looking through heavy plate glass upon long stretches of tree-shaded sward surrounding a spacious country house on Long Island. Through fresh vistas of leaves new born they caught the sparkle of the blue waters of the Sound, and even through windows closed against the bracing breezes of early day, the fluting of the thrushes reached their ears. "But I'm not homesick, Maurice," returned the lady decidedly. "When I made up my mind to come out, it was settled. If you could make a noble sacrifice, why, so could I."
