Excerpt from The Life Everlasting a Reality of Romance Why, then, do I add an undesired note to the chorus of rejected appeal? How dare I lift up my voice in the Wil derness, when other voices, far stronger and sweeter, are drowned in the laughter of fools and the mockery Of the profane? Truly, I do not know. But I am sure that I am not moved by egotism or arrogance. It is simply out Of love and pity for suffering human kind that I venture to become another Voice discarded-a voice which, if heard at all, may only serve to awaken the cheap scorn and derision of the clowns of the piece. Yet, should this be so, I would not have it otherwise. I have never at any time striven to be one with the world, or to suit my speech pliantly to the conventional humour Of the moment. I am often attacked, yet am not hurt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
