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 The Palfrey: A Love Story of Old Times I think it probable that it was originally the only horse used in those peaceful imitations of war, the tilt and tournament. It certainly Often was used in them, and in battle too; though by degrees it came to be em ployed chiefly as a saddle-horse or hackney, and ulti mately to mean simply a lady's horse, doubtless from training being always identified with its education. The horse ridden by her Majesty at the present day will be a Palfrey in all the forms; that is to say, of spirit enough perhaps for any service, but at all events of gentle breeding, graceful with its spirit, and trained in the riding-house.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from From Coast to Coast: The Only Man to Drive a Single Horse Across the Continent, Starting at Catalina Island, California, and Finishing at Coney Island, New York; Complete Story of This Wonderful Trip as Told by the Author Fanny for Handsome Dick, so that the short-cared little rascal became the property of the author of this book. Nelly was delighted to get the chance to make the trade as she could not handle Dick, so by the change she was mark happy and so was the author. Now I had the great little stallion that was to be the Champion long-distance Horse of the Union. Some of my friends looked at him and said, No Good, too small. But the author smiled and made no reply but kept his business to himself, telling no one what he was going to do. The author believes in doing a thing and telling of it after it is done. He never says I am gomg to do a thing but gets out and does it. Dick was trained in The Circle City till he was two and one-half years old, then the writer moved to Santa Monica, Cal., and there he was trained for one year. The author is a trainer who trained under that famous old horseman, Professor Magnor of Battle Creek, Michigan. That grand old man knew how to handle horses and from him the writer learned his lesson and learned it well. The author knows that good old man's secrets and knows them well. The author of this book has a memory that serves him well and this case has proved it in many ways and to this memory he owes his success in this, hls great trip.

Download or read book Buying a Horse written by William Dean Howells and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-20 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Buying a Horse' is an essay sharing several anecdotes on buying horses by William Dean Howells. He begins by saying that if one has enough money, there seems no reason why one should not go and buy such a horse as he wants. A friend of his proceeded to do so: He was about removing from Charlesbridge, where he had lived many happy years without a horse, farther into the country, where there were charming drives and inconvenient distances, and where a horse would be very desirable, if not quite necessary. But as a horse seemed at first an extravagant if not sinful desire, he began by talking vaguely round, and rather hinting than declaring that he thought somewhat of buying. The professor to whom he first intimated his purpose flung himself from his horse's back to the grassy border of the sidewalk where my friend stood, and said he would give him a few points. "In the first place don't buy a horse that shows much daylight under him, unless you buy a horse-doctor with him; get a short-legged horse; and he ought to be short and thick in the barrel,"—or words to that effect. "Don't get a horse with a narrow forehead: there are horse-fools as well as the other kind, and you want a horse with room for brains. And look out that he's all right forward."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hagar's Hoard I was reading a piece in the Commercial Appeal the other day about their finding $60,000 in greenbacks in an old miser's house, some of it in those little old green shin-plasters that go back to Civil war time. And I showed it to my wife, and we smiled a little, and then grew sober right away again; for it set us thinking of my Uncle Athiel Hagar, the miser, and the Yellow Fever Year of 1878. It was on a Tuesday that the Fever came. I remember it because it was the day after rent day, the last Monday that my Uncle Athiel ever gathered up his rents from his negro tenements. I can see him now, driving into the black alley that still August evening - his high, frail, old, mud-stained buggy swaying and lurching on that old wretched roadway; and Dolly, the old horse, wet and soapy from the hot weather. And my Uncle, there on the worn and shiny seat, in his linen duster; and the little old brown satchel for his collections in between his feet. Every man and boy and nigger in the town knew the rig - the clay-stained, old, high buggy, with its paint checking off, and the little clay-colored man, with his bright, black eyes, and his lame leg a little extended; and the battered little handbag that brought back his nigger rents on Mondays. "Old Grum," they called him, or "Grummit" - behind his back, but never to his face. I went to take the horse and unharness it.
