Not so! To my own Gods I go. It may be they shall give me greater ease Than your cold Christ and tangled Trinities. -The Convert. She was the daughter of Sonoo, a Hill-man of the Himalayas, and Jadeh his wife. One year their maize failed, and two bears spent the night in their only opium poppy-field just above the Sutlej Valley on the Kotgarh side; so, next season, they turned Christian, and brought their baby to the Mission to be baptized. The Kotgarh Chaplain christened her Elizabeth, and "Lispeth" is the Hill or pahari pronunciation. Later, cholera came into the Kotgarh Valley and carried off Sonoo and Jadeh, and Lispeth became half servant, half companion, to the wife of the then Chaplain of Kotgarh. This was after the reign of the Moravian missionaries in that place, but before Kotgarh had quite forgotten her title of "Mistress of the Northern Hills."

Mr. Johnson, who was on a journey, and somewhat fear ful from the appearance of the sky, that rain was at no great distance, accosted the shepherd with asking what sort of weather he thought it would be on the morrow. It. Will be such weather as pleases me, answered the shepherd. Though the answer was delivered in the mildest and most civil tone that could be imagined, the gentleman thought the words themselves rather rude and surly, and asked him how that could be. Because, replied the shepherd, it will be such weather as shall please God, and whatever pleases him always pleases me.

Download or read book Redskin and Cow Boy written by G. A. Henty and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Redskin and Cow-Boy: A Tale of the Western Plains There are but few words of preface needed to a story that is not historical. The principal part of the tale is laid among the cow-boys of the Western States of America, a body of men unrivalled in point of hardihood and devotion to work, as well as in reckless courage and wild daring. Texas, which twenty-five years ago was the great ranching state, is no longer the home of the typical cow-boy, but he still exists and flour ishes in New Mexico and the northern States and Territories. The picture I have given of their life can be relied upon, and its adventures and dangers are in no degree coloured, as I have taken them from the lips of a near relative of my own who was for some years working as a cow-boy in New Mexico. He was an actor in many of the scenes described, and so far from my having heightened or embellished them, I may say that I have given but a small proportion of the perilous adventures through which he went, for had I given them in full it would, I am sure, have seemed to you that the story was too improbable to be true. In treating of cow-boy life, indeed, it may well be said that truth is stranger than fiction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Man of Clay: A Tale of Life The fact that I acquired my understanding of the Bible after this manner, however, and that I have given expression in my books to some of the things I have been able to prove through this understanding, furnishes no reason for classifying these books as Christian Science literature. They are not Christian Science literature. They are, instead, very simple stories of persons actuated by the self same motives that actuate all mankind in the universal quest of truth. I have a firm belief that stories of this character are more beneficial to their readers, than are stories written from a purely material viewpoint; and I sincerely hope that those I have written will give some one a good thought and help them on their way heavenward.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Those Black Diamond Men: A Tale of the Anthrax Valley Sometime when the light of a winter sunset is flooding the street, let the reader look narrowly at a stream of coal as it slides along the chute across the sidewalk. If the lumps are large and rusty, he may see that they are stained a blood red. It is only the oxide of iron. Yet coal cannot be obtained except at the cost of life. The miner's life calls for risk and sacrifice, not only for himself, hut equally for others. This sort of life develops heroism. Yet there are no stage-heroes in the mines, - only plain men. If one is in danger of death, his comrades will risk their own lives for him, - and that is all there is about it. But he who leads the rescuing party is no hero in his own eyes; just an average sort of man who may need to be "brought out" himself to-morrow. The characters in this book are fictitious: the characteristics are real. Such things as are here recorded happen every day. For nearly fifteen years the lights and shadows in these pages have fallen across the author's path as he has gone among this people. One of the hindrances to an understanding of other classes is a lack of imagination. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dead Man's Rock: A Romance Whatever claims this story may have upon the notice of the world, they will rest on no niceties of style or aptness of illustration. It is a plain tale, plainly told: nor, as I conceive, does its native horror need any ingenious embellishment. There are many books that I, though a man of no great erudition, can remember, which gain much of interest from the pertinent and appropriate comments with which the writer has seen lit to illustrate any striking situation. From such books an observing man may often draw the exactest rules for the regulation of life and conduct, and their authors may therefore be esteemed public benefactors.

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.
