Book Description
Excerpt from The Romance of Rahere, and Other Poems Alice. Swiftly now the cup I lift, Meek repentance showing: 'Drink, sweet girl! Not mine the gift; 'Tis Nature's own bestowing.' Fearless now she drank, while I Draught of lover madness Drank from blush and smile and sigh Of her grateful gladness. Laughing now, she archly said, Void of fear or malice: 'Sir, the brook was Nature's aid, Yours the pretty chalice.' 'Keep it, then, fair maid, ' I sighed, 'With my heart to crown it.' 'Shalt not covet, ' she replied; 'Other maid may own it.' 'No; not so, ' I cried in haste; 'Love I scorned till lately.' Rosy red, as Dian chaste, Stood she proud and stately. 'By the brook we both have drank Will you love me ever?' On my knee I eager sank, 'Sweet, till death shall sever.'

Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers.

Book Description

Hence the career Of james nack has engaged the attention Of more than one eminent writer. The elegant memoir of General wetmore is familiar to all conversant with the literature of our country; and, in the present brief sketch, we shall, to a great extent, avail ourselves of his remarks, with a few additional particulars from other sources.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Romance of Sir Richard: Sonnets and Other Poems By brake and bower, by fen and field, And lakes that gemmed fair Nature's breast With shadowy lance and silver shield, Came riding Night upon his quest. The stars in countless myriads glowed, Like jewels, in his sombre helm, And earth grew silent as he rode Again through his reconquered realm. The Wind, his unseen trumpeter, Gave Challenge to the recreant Day. There was no answer, save the stir Of leaves, that turned to see the fray. NO answer and the wind was still, And all the leafage fell asleep, While Night rode slowly up the hill Into the ruined Norman Keep.
