The Evening Twilight and the Glorious Dawning (Classic Reprint)
Author: Thomas Applegate
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780484524728
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
Excerpt from The Evening Twilight and the Glorious Dawning The evening brings with it decrepitude and infirm ity. When David said to Barzillai, come and live with me at the palace, Barzillai answered I am this day four-score years old and can I discern be tween good and evil? Can thy servant taste What I eat or What I drink Can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women P Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back that I may die in my own city, to be buried by the grave of my father and of my mother. The desire to die at home, and be interred in the family vault, is generally all of earthly preference that now remains. The pleasures of Sxpectation have ceased; there is nothing to hope for. The clouds return after the rain. The keepers of the house tremble. The strong men bow themselves. The active limbs are feeble. That other disciple, who outran Peter, can no longer creep from his couch any one can bind him, and carry him whither he would not. The grinders cease because they are few, and those that look out of the windows be dark ened The eyes are dim. The landscape is blurred. The World Is misty; the doors are Shut in the streets. The avenues of audience and utterance are closed. Soft sounds can no longer be enjoyed. Whispers of affection are not heard. There is terror in that which is high, and fears are in the way. The mountain side is formidable. The grasshopper is a burden, and desire fails. The frail nature we inherit is eucom passed with a cloud of infirmities, iwhich develop themselves the more painfully, as the sands of life are running out.

Pages : 583
Book Description
From the author of the international best seller An Instance of the Fingerpost, Arcadia is an astonishing work of imagination. In Cold War England, Professor Henry Lytten, having renounced a career in espionage, is writing a fantasy novel that dares to imagine a world less fraught than his own. He finds an unlikely confidante in Rosie, an inquisitive young neighbor who, while chasing after Lytten's cat one day, stumbles through a doorway in his cellar and into a stunning and unfamiliar bucolic landscape—remarkably like the fantasy world Lytten is writing about. There she meets a young boy named Jay who is about to embark on a journey that will change both their lives. Elsewhere, in a distopian society where progress is controlled by a corrupt ruling elite, the brilliant scientist Angela Meerson has discovered the potential of a powerful new machine.
