Download or read book The Rhine written by Karl Stieler and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rhine: From Its Source to the Sea Foremost among rivers is the Rhine, which, even two thousand years ago, was a watchword among nations. Its banks were im pressed with the footprints of Caesar's legions and Attila's cavalry, and centuries later, accompanied by a rejoicing people, King Conrad des cended the Rhine to Mainz for his coronation. Legend also has grown even as luxuriantly as History on the banks of the Rhine. As the ivy clings to the old castle walls, so do traditions fasten them selves to actual events. On the Rhine stood the castle of the N iebelungen, and on the Rhine the Lorelei sang. What country can compare in richness to that through which the Rhine flows, from the snow-clad Alps down to the very sea in which it is lost? Here lay the cities of the old empire and the great seats of eccle siastical pomp, which lavished as recklessly as they grasped all that came within their power. Who does not feel the wealth that lies in. The words The Rhine, the wealth of Nature and of Art, of History and of Legend, of old and new life?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Legends of the Rhine: From Basle to Rotterdam On the Rhine blooms fine life! From the Destruction's dust, The Ancestor's spirits strife, Which long were the Graves' rust; And songs there resound With harmonious stream, In the spirit again found, And again must I dream. See I the birds flying High the blue air through, See I the ships striving In distant grey-fog anew, Is me, as if in flight The birds words sing, As in quick despite To ships others cling. Spirit-words on the moor And quick moving flood; There round the Convent-door, Where Pilgrims once stood - And the Ivy branch waves, So high and sadly wild Binds tendrils round the graves There tone fairy songs so mild.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrims of the Rhine I have made the experiment of selecting for the main interest of my work the simplest materials, and weaving upon them the ornaments given chiefly to subjects of a more fanciful and ideal nature. I know not how far I have succeeded, but various reasons have conspired to make this the work, above all others that I have written, which has given me the most delight (though not unmixed with melan choly) in producing, and in which my mind, for the time, has been the most completely absorbed. But the ardour of composition is often disproportioned to the merit of the work; and the public sometimes, nor unjustly, avenges itself for that forgetfulness of its existence, which makes the chief charm of an author's solitude - and the happiest, if not the wisest.

IT is nearly dusk. That indescribable melancholy which takes possession of the heart at the close of day seems to extend over the entire landscape. Which is really sad at such times? Is it nature, or is it our selves? A white mist rises from the depths of the immense valley of the Vosges the tall reeds along the river-bank sigh lugubriously the steamboat struggles on through the water like a big, tired dog; all the weary, drowsy passengers have gone down into the cabin, which is filled with bundles, valises, loaded tables, and sleeping people. The deck is almost deserted. Three German students still linger there, silent and motion less, smoking their pipes, without making a gesture or uttering a word, - three statues; I make a fourth as I stand staring out into space.
