Excerpt from Simplicity and Fascination, or Guardians and Wards, Vol. 1 of 3 We knock at the door, and are admitted by a rosy country girl into a passage, where is a stand Of geraniums, and thence conducted into a large hall, where we will sit down in a corner, invisible as ghosts by daylight, and look about us. This hall is a substantial apartment, panelled with black oak. Heavy oaken rafters form the ceiling, and polished oaken planks the oor; over the middle of the latter is a piece of Indian mat ting. An oaken chimney corner usurps a third Of one side of the room, on the hearth of which are placed two bright steel dogs, or andirons. Across these dogs lie big logs of wood, that burn with all their hearts, and as if they took a pleasure in en livening by their cheerful ames the party assem bled near them.

Book Description
Excerpt from Guardians and Wards: Or, Simplicity and Fascination "In one little body Thou counterfeit'st a bark, a sea, a wind; For still thy eyes, which I may call the sea, Do ebb and ow with tears; the bark thy body is, Sailing in this salt ood; the Winds, thy sighs, Who, - raging with thy tears, and they with them, - Without a sudden calm, will overset Thy tempest-tossed body." - Romeo and Juliet. "Jessie, go to him! do something, - say something, I entreat you!" said Anna, bursting into Jessie' s room, and, as usual, casting her arms around her. "What is the matter, Anna?" asked Jessie. "I cannot stop to tell you now: he will be gone. I tried to do as you told me, and I am afraid I have gone too far. I have been rude, unkind, unjust - for how can he help his father? But go quick: be kind and gentle, and make up for my hardness of heart." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
