Excerpt from Rhymes for the Nursery In' the simple title of Rhymes for the Nursery, the pretensions of this little volume are fully explained. In the Nursery they are designed to circulate, and within its sanctuary walls the writers claim shelter from the eye of criticism; though, should they appear to have ad mitted any sentiment inj udicious, erroneous, or dangerous, they ask not such an indulgence.

Book Description
Excerpt from Mother Goose's Nursery Rhymes A search has been made among all books of nursery rhymes and songs brought out fifty years ago or more, in order that this edition should be as complete as possible. It is not claimed that there is any finality in a collection of nursery rhymes, for just as Oh, dear! What can the Matter be? Took root in the affections of children from being a popular song less than a century ago, so other rhymes are constantly being added to the children's chosen literature, or other verses to an older rhyme.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Nursery Rhymes of England The nursery rhyme is the novel and light reading of the infant scholar. It occupies, with respect to the A B C, the position of a romance which relieves the mind from the cares of a riper age. The absurdity and fri volity of a rhyme may naturally be its chief attractions to the very young; and there will be something lost from the imagination of that child, whose parents insist so much on matters of fact, that the cow must be made, in compliance with the rules of their educational code, to jump under instead of over the moon; while of course the little dog must be considered as barking, not laughing at the circumstance.

Excerpt from Book for Boys and Girls, or Country Rhymes for Children Two emblems had in some instances been run together into one. For example, the first emblem in the later edition contains meditations on two things - the Barren Fig-tree and God's Vineyard; and the second has a meditation on the Lark and the Fowler, and also a comparison between the Fowler and Satan. It maybe, Mr. Od'or suggested, that these two emblems were in this way originally four, and so with others; and upon this plan the volume contained exactly seventy four meditations.

Excerpt from House of Play: Verses-Rhymes-Stories for Young Folks Far over the water comes down the night, Fading and fading the silvery light, While storks on their nests stand white and tall, And over the tree-tops the shadows fall.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Tar-Baby: And Other Rhymes of Uncle Remus With the exception of the tar-baby story and one 0th: all the folk-lore stories herein embodied are new, having come into my hands from various sources during the past ten years. The tar-baby story has been thrown into a rhymed form for the purpose of presenting and preserving what seems to be the genuine version. Those who care for the narratives themselves will no doubt overlook the somewhat monotonous character of the verse. When Uncle Remus sets himself to produce new stories in a form that would seem to be alien to his methods, it is inevitable that his efforts should move along the line of least resistance, which in English is the iambic four-beat movement, the simplest form of narrative verse. Under the circumstances, and in view of his environment, it is natural that he should pay small attention to the misleading rules of the professors of prosody, who seem to have not the slightest notion of the science of English verse. His instinctive love of melody, and his appreciation of the simplest rhythmical move ment, would lead him to ignore syllables and accents and to depend wholly on the time-movement that is inseparable from English verse.

Excerpt from New Nursery Rhymes on Old LinesThe flare of fire is bright as day; Come with a shriek and come with a cry, Come though in terror, come lest you die; Lose your supper, and lose your sleep, Join the fleeing ones in the street.Feet of children, you ne'er shall go By path of anguish or deeper woe, Wait no instant, away, away! Less cruel to go, than now to stay The Germans are coming, Away! Away!About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
