Excerpt from Pansies and Asphodel It is a remarkable fact that in one respect the Folklore of the Russians differs from that of most other nations; Ilia of Mourom, the favourite hero, who is greater even than King Vladimir himself, is a peasant's son, and M ikoula, another prominent character, is a villager. Ilia is always a democrat, and is constantly appearing as the representative of his class, rebuking even Vladimir himself when the interests of the country demand it, and serving the people rather than the king.

Excerpt from Daffodils Pansies, and Violets, and Asphodel To The Wayfarer. Straight to the shining heaven the daffodil Her cup doth hold; Asking and gathering the sweet light until It brims with gold. Then, though the under-shies be dun and gray, Earth cold and crass, With changeless mien she sits there brave and gay In the meek grass, Showing her trophy of a fairer day To all that pass. If any little reaching upward so, Above life's ills, Have found the o'er-brooding summer, whose great glow To gladness fills Heart-blooms for me, - partake them as you go, My daffodils.
