Excerpt from The Lover's Tale The original Preface to 'the Lover's Tale' states that it was composed in my nineteenth year. Two only of the three parts then written were printed, when, feeling the imperfection of the poem, I withdrew it from the press. One of my friends however who, boylike, admired the boy's work, distributed among our common associates of that hour some copies of these two parts, without my know ledge, without the omissions and amendments which I had in contemplation, and marred by the many misprints of the compositor. Seeing that these two parts have of late been mercilessly pirated, and that what I had deemed scarce worthy to live is not allowed to die, may I not be pardoned if I suffer the whole poem at last to come into the light - accompanied with a reprint of the sequel - a work of my mature life The Golden Supper'?

Excerpt from A Lovers Tale Into Midfirth runs the Mell river through mudflats and marl to mix green water with the salt waves. On either side the land is rich and wet, giving fine pasture, and you can hardly seethe snow peaks beyond the fells from which Mellcomes down cold and green and clear. There on the brae stood Melstead, and there it stands yet. Once it was the house of Ogmund and his wife Dalla; but hedied before the tale begins, which begins with Dalla, a widow and blind, and her two grown sons -Thorgils and Cormac.

Excerpt from Lovers' Saint Ruth's: And Three Other Tales It was a little sober, pastoral place, this Orrinleigh, with its straw-browed cottages bosomed in roses, sitting all in a row upon the overshaded lane, and, from the height where we stood, looking like so many sepia-tinted mush rooms in the broad green world. Just beyond us, in the near neighborhood of Orrinleigh House, the gray sham-Grecian porch of his ritualistic Tudor church skulked in the faint May sun. "What do you call that?" I said. "It is the one ugly thing hereabouts." He smiled. "Of course it is ugly, structurally," he answered in an apologetic tone; "Saint Ruth's was built in King James the Firsts time; I do not pride myself on that. But you should see the ruin, Holden! a darling bit of Early Decorated. Walk over there now with me. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Innocents: A Story for Lovers They were rustic as a meadow-ringed orchard, yet Father and Mother had been born in New York City, and there lived for more than sixty years. Father was a perfectly able clerk in Pilkings's shoe-store on Sixth Avenue, and Pilkings was so much older than Father that he still called him, Hey you, Seth! And still gave him advice about handling lady customers. For three or four years, some ten years back, Father and Mr. Pilkings had displayed ill feeling over the passing of the amiable elastic sided Congress shoe. But that was practically forgotten, and Father began to feel fairly cer tain of his job. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

After the heavy vessels were under way, there was an interval of several hours each day, in which he had no duties to perform, and it was during this brief respite from the de mands of a busy professional career that most of these pages were written.

Excerpt from Lovers and Husbands: A Story of Married Life Two maidens sat in earnest conversation one quiet afternoon in October, near the window of a tasteful cottage which looked out upon a gently-declining lawn, encircled by elms that still retained their thick foliage. Beyond this lawn was a dense wood, gayly attired in its many-coloured autumn robes. The rays of the setting sun fell broad and unobstructed upon the bosom of this forest, lending to each gaudy leaf, or to the half-revealed silvery branches and trunks of the trees, a glittering lustre that dazzled the eye. "See, Flora!" said one of the maidens, suddenly interrupting their conversation, and glancing out of the window as she spoke: "is there anything in nature more beautiful than an autumn sunset?" "Nothing," returned her companion, half abstractedly, as her eyes followed the direction of her companion's. Then speaking with a sudden animation, inspired by the scene she added, "Beautiful, very beautiful! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
