DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Modern Madonna A hush fell on the waiting throng at old St. John's. The soft babble of modulated voices died suddenly away as from the greenery and the daisies of the chancel a singer's voice rose sweet and clear. The white-ribboned, white-canvased aisles were ready for the coming of a bride's feet, and the wedding guests imprisoned behind the silken bands bent forward expectantly to hear her nuptial song. That song, as was most meet, breathed love and perfect trust; when it was finished there were tears in many eyes. Women's hearts are very tender at weddings, and the song was in the universal key. In the vestibule, other ears were bending to catch the strains. With the first note Judge Kirtley raised his hand enjoining silence, and the ushers and the maids fell back, leaving the old man and his companion listening at the door. Upon his arm was Margaret, child of his love, though not of his blood. She was the daughter of his old friend, who, with his dying breath, had left her to his charge.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Vision of the Madonna The Vision of the Madonna. I. (Mary Loquitur.) Methought an angel came to me and said, "Fear not, thou hast found favor in the sight Of God, and art among all women blest." And then, as in a vision, I beheld Time like a scroll unrolled before mine eyes. Upborne, as if on angels' wings o'er earth, I watched the swift flight of the burdened years, With all the wonder and the suffering And final triumph of the Holy One. And first I saw below a bare, white plain And shepherds watching by their flocks by night. A wondrous light all round about them shone, A path of glory leading up to Heaven, That pulsed from rose to silver, as it were About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
