Book Description
Excerpt from Ascent Perhaps the fact that this is a last vantage point makes more poignant one's sense of a wider and darker country beyond. The summit itself, with its split rocks and its faint show of a stunted underbrush, is the first to show the complete immunity of a region which is still a wilderness. The last farm runs out into stubble three miles back and the last road ends at its base. The glimpses of habitation, in the country immediately below, are reminders that the progression of the seasons, in the valley which must deepen to green and redden to brown under their touch, leaves the monotony of the upland unbroken. It seems beyond the sequences in the circle of fulfilment; and the picture one most readily forms of it is with the moving drift, across its barren face, of a perpetual snow, falling with the same immensity as the immensity of the skies.

Excerpt from The Ascent of Man Prelude. Wings. Ascend, oh my Soul, with the wings of the lark ascend Soaring away and away far into the blue. Or with the shrill to the breakers bend, Or with the bee, where the grasses and field-flowers blend, Drink out of golden cups of the honey-dew. Ascend, oh my Soul, on the wings of the wind as it blows, Striking wild organ-blasts from the forest trees, Or on the zephyr bear love of the rose to the rose, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Ascent and Other Poems I turned over to him the batch of completed papers. He pitched upon Miss Mills' paper at once. Saying after he had read it. 'you don't get many like that. I assume.' No the paper was exceptional in sheer application of the principles 1 had been setting forth. As all her papers were. Blessedly free from the thing called temperament she could put her mind upon a problem of expression as she would upon a problem of knowledge. Employing her whole intelligence.

Excerpt from The Ascent of Mount Carmel We do not possess any autobiography of S. John, as we do of S. Teresa, or the more active portion and character of his life would be at once apparent. More over, only very few of his letters have been' preserved not twenty, in fact, or we should undoubtedly have had sufficient evidence of his busy and active life. But, even as it is, proofs glance out from his epistles of this important element in his composition. In his second letter (vol. Ii. P. He thus writes to the religious of Veas, a highly favoured foundation What is wanting in you, if, indeed, anything be wanting, is silence, and work. For, whereas speaking distracts, silence and action collect the thoughts, and strengthen the spirit.' And again, To arrest this evil, and to preserve our spirit, as I have said, there is no surer remedy than to suffer, to work, to be silent.'

Book Description
Excerpt from The Red Ascent Dinner was nearly over, the simple dessert was being portioned out, the old priest's voice seemed to recover itself like a runner's breath, gaining new impetus when he sees the relieving goal and the words seemed to penetrate even Richard's deep absorption. In ancient days the cliffs outside of J eru salem were the battle-ground for many war ring Chieftains. They have witnessed so much bloodshed that they have been rightly called the Red Ascent.' But cannot the path of every man, who struggles to attain the heights of idealism, be likened to that bloody road? The reading stopped abruptly. The heavy chairs were pushed back noisily from the table, the students rose, and murmuring a short thanksgiving, they filed out of the dining-room. Richard leaned over and whispered to the man in front of him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
