But I think it was only their kindness. I have that twist in my brain, which is the curse of my countrymen - a sort of devilish quickness at doing' well, that prevents us ever doing best; just the same sort of thing that makes our goatherds rhyme per feet sonnets, and keeps them dunces before the alphabet.

Sydney Morris One grows to love the Roman fountains as sea-born men the sea. Go where you will there is the water; whether it foams by Trevi, where the green moss grows in it like ocean weed about the feet of the ocean god, or whether it rushes reddened by the evening light, from the mouth of an old lion that once saw Cleopatra; whether it leaps high in air, trying to reach the gold cross on St. Peter's or pours its triple cascade over the Pauline granite; whether it spouts out of a great barrel in a wall in old Trastevere, or throws up into the air a gossamer as fine as Arachne's web in a green garden way where the lizards run, or in a crowded corner where the fruit-sellers sit against the wall;-in all its shapes one grows to love the water that fills Rome with an unchanging melody all through the year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calamities shatter, and despair engulfs it; and yet after a time the chasm seems to close; the storm wave seems to roll back; the leaves and the grass return; and we make new dwellings. That is, the daily ways of living are resumed, and the common tricks of our speech and act are as they used to be before disaster came upon us. Then wise people say, he or she has "got over it." Alas, alas! the drowned children will not come back to us; the love that was struck down, the prayer that was silenced, the altar that was ruined, the garden that was ravished, they are all gone for ever, --for ever, for ever! Yet we live; because grief does not always kill, and often does not speak. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Download or read book Wisdom Wit and Pathos of Ouida written by Ouida and published by . This book was released on 2008-08-01 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maria Louise Ram (1839-1908) was an English author. She wrote under the pen name Ouida. She wrote more than 40 novels, children's books and collections of short stories and essays. She was an animal rights activist and animal rescuer, and at times owned as many as thirty dogs. Her work went through several phases during her career. In her early period, her novels were a hybrid of the sensationalism of the 1860s and the proto-adventure novels dubbed "muscular fiction" that were emerging in part as a romanticization of imperial expansion. Later her work was more along the lines of historical romance, though she never stopped commenting on contemporary society. Sympathetic portraits of tragic painters and singers fill her later novels. Her works include: Under Two Flags (1867), A Dog of Flanders (1872), Bbe (1874), Bimbi (1882), Afternoon (1883) and The Waters of Edera (1900).

History is like that old stag that Charles of France found out hunting in the woods once, with the bronze collar round its neck on which was written, "Caesar mihi hoc donavit." How one's fancy loves to linger about that old stag, and what a crowd of mighty shades come thronging at the very thought of him! How wonderful it is to think of-that quiet grey beast leading his lovely life under the shadows of the woods, with his hinds and their fawns about him, whilst Caesar after Caesar fell and generation on generation passed away and perished! But the sciolist taps you on the arm. "Deer average fifty years of life; it was some mere court trick of course-how easy to have such a collar made!" Well, what have we gained? The stag was better than the sciolist."
