Thomas Hardy, The Poetry Of

by Thomas Hardy ...

Poetry is a fascinating use of language. With almost a million words at its command it is not surprising that these Isles have produced some of the most beautiful, moving and descriptive verse through the centuries. In this series we look at poets who at first thought summon other crafts to mind. Many giants of Literature originate from the shores of these emerald isles; Shakespeare, Dickens, ... Read more

The Day Boy and the Night Girl

by George MacDonald ...

THERE was once a witch who desired to know everything. But the wiser a witch is, the harder she knocks her head against the wall when she comes to it. Her name was Watho, and she had a wolf in her mind. She cared for nothing in itself - only for knowing it. She was not naturally cruel, but the wolf had made her cruel. ... Read more

At his request, then, I have to say that nearly all the numbers contained in the present volume are reprinted from 'A Book of Verses' (1888) and 'London Voluntaries' (1892-3). From the first of these I have removed some copies of verse which seemed to me scarce worth keeping; and I have ... Read more

Poems by Emily Dickinson, Series Two

by Emily Dickinson, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, Mabel Loomis Todd ...

The eagerness with which the first volume of Emily Dickinson's poems has been read shows very clearly that all our alleged modern artificiality does not prevent a prompt appreciation of the qualities of directness and simplicity in approaching the greatest themes, — life and love and death. That “irresistible needle-touch, ” as one of her best critics has called it, piercing at once the very core ... Read more

Horizons and Landmarks: Poems of the Unknown Way

by Sidney Royse Lysaght ...

The child is part of all that he beholds; Youth with his dreams of love the world enfolds; Man takes life in his hands, and mars or moulds. Freed of its load, washed of its gathered stain, In the child’s spirit life is born again. Of all he sees and loves he is a part: Faith lights his footsteps; filtered through his heart The everlasting fountain-springs o’er-run In rills of joy, and life and he ... Read more
