Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wiser Folly When the Delancey affair had been brought to a conclusion, it was not uninteresting to note the various opinions set forth regarding its happy termination. Biddy, at once autocrat and indulger of at least three generations of juvenile Delanceys, maintained, and stoutly, it was entirely due to her own prayers to her patron saint. She took, so to speak, a monopoly of the business as far as any human agency was concerned. But, as one cannot, with any degree of modesty, parade one's private devotions to the world at large, it was hardly probable that this view of the matter would be universal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Folly There she hung, like any Juliet from her balcony, but did not perceive her husband at the foot of the stairs until he tossed a tiny bunch of celandines against her cheek. She caught the posy and glanced down upon him calmly and critically. She might well have been think ing that, burly and ruddy as he was, he made no bad figure of a country squire; but he grew uncomfortably aware that he was hot and mud-splashed and entirely out of harmony with her daintiness. She tossed back his flowers with the comment: They don't match my gown - see? In silence he returned the despised blossoms to his buttonhole, as she asked indifferently: Roads bad?

Book excerpt: In Praise of Folly is an essay written in Latin in 1509 by Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam and first printed in 1511. Inspired by Italian humanist Faustino Perisauli's De Triumpho Stultitiae, it is a satirical attack on superstitions and other traditions of European society as well as on the western Church.

In Praise of Folly is considered one of the most notable works of the Renaissance and played an important role in the beginnings of the Protestant Reformation.
Download or read book A Book of Cambridge Verse Classic Reprint written by Ernest Edward Kellett and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 532 pages. 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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sir Goodwin's Folly, Vol. 2 of 3: A Story of the Year 1795 Tradespeople took down their shutters, and business began. The landlord of the Light Horseman stood at his door in his shirtsleeves, with one eye on his potman, who was cleaning out the bar, and the other on the columns of the Public Advertiser, which he held in his hand. Occasionally he raised both his visual organs for the purpose of surveying mankind, as mankind appeared over the way. Either something he saw, or something he did not see, seemed to surprise him; he raised his shaggy grey eyebrows with an air of astonishment, and addressed his potman in these words: "Why, Peter, they've still got their shutters up over at the barber's shop. What's the reason of that?" "I can't say, master," replied Peter, leaning on his broom, as he looked out of the door. "They're mostly as regular as clockwork. Their 'prentice sweeps out his hair jest as I'm a sweeping out my sand and sawdust. But I ain't a seen nobody this morning." "'Tis strange," observed the landlord. "Whatever his other faults may be, Chigwood's usually an early bird in the morning." "Sarah Jane says she dreamt about wild beastesses," remarked Peter. "She woke up in a flight, and heard the barber's bears growling as plain as if they was out on the pavement. She says she heard wheels and woices a whispering."
