Excerpt from Tales and Legends in Verse Again was heard the pleading cry, the little hand was raised, And feelings all unknown before came o'er him as he gazed, And he seemed to have gained a heart of flesh instead of a heart of stone, As he took the child from the breast of the dead, and laid it in his own, And closed it from the cold, and sought to soothe its moaning pain.

Excerpt from Eastern Legends and Stories: In English Verse The author, in submitting to the Public the following collection of Translations from Eastern sources, has thought it best to convert for the most part the Oriental forms of speech, which the characters in these Legends would use, into, as far as may be, their English equi valents; that what is said might sound more real in Western ears. He has reduced the number of foot-notes to the narrowest possible limits, believing that in a work of light poetry the constant intervention of notes becomes tiresome to the reader. Many, in reading this small collection of Legends, will doubtless recognize some Old Friends with New Faces.'

A blush came on her cheek as thus she thought, And a tear trembled on her eyelid's fringe, For there was one' who the fierce Saracen fought, One who beneath the Scimitar would not cringe, Whose settled courage nothing could unhinge; He in the foremost rank was always found, And Emmeline's soft bosom felt a twinge, TO think how he might lie on Paynim ground.
