Excerpt from Guardians and Wards: Or, Simplicity and Fascination "In one little body Thou counterfeit'st a bark, a sea, a wind; For still thy eyes, which I may call the sea, Do ebb and ow with tears; the bark thy body is, Sailing in this salt ood; the Winds, thy sighs, Who, - raging with thy tears, and they with them, - Without a sudden calm, will overset Thy tempest-tossed body." - Romeo and Juliet. "Jessie, go to him! do something, - say something, I entreat you!" said Anna, bursting into Jessie' s room, and, as usual, casting her arms around her. "What is the matter, Anna?" asked Jessie. "I cannot stop to tell you now: he will be gone. I tried to do as you told me, and I am afraid I have gone too far. I have been rude, unkind, unjust - for how can he help his father? But go quick: be kind and gentle, and make up for my hardness of heart." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
