- Will nobody stop for those pleading eyes? - - The old bridge echoes the ceaseless thunder - Of crowds that gather and stream along, - And the stranger child shrinks back in wonder, - She cannot sing in that hurrying throng. - - She thinks of her home across the ocean, - With its deep blue sky and its vineyards green; - But who will heed, in that wild commotion, - The pitiful sound of her tambourine? - - Flow! flow! O London river, - Carry thy ships from the mighty town, - Smiles and tears in thy heart for ever, - Smiles and tears as thou hurriest down! - -[Illustration] - - - - -[Illustration: _THE ABBEY SWALLOWS._] - - The year was late, the days were cold, - The swallows long had gone, - Two only by the Abbey door - Still doubting lingered on. - They hovered, wheeling round and round, - Beside the porch in fear, - And as they lighted on the ground - A little child drew near. - - Close to her feet the swallows came, - And twittered gay and glad, - She broke her little crust for them— - It was the last she had. - Then blithe and gay they flew away, - She to her corner crept; - There was no one now in the world to care - Whether she smiled or wept. - - With summer back the swallows came, - Flew to the Abbey door, - But no one stood to watch for them, - The child was there no more. - She had gone away on the angels’ wings, - No more in the world to roam, - For the love that she gave those helpless things, - She has found in her Heavenly Home. - -[Illustration] - - - - -[Illustration: _THE MISGUIDED LAMB._] - - There were two little girls who had - A fond devoted Mammy, - But spent their warm affections on - A most ungrateful lamb-y, - - For spite of all the care of Ruth, - And all the love of Mary, - This lamb was a misguided youth, - Most crooked and contràry. - - On Sunday, when they went to church, - And wished to be without him, - He used to wander up the aisle, - And stop and stare about him. - - And when the parson and the clerk - Looked stern at Ruth and Mary, - They wished they did not own a lamb - So crooked and contràry. - - He used to bleat most piteously - When they came up the mountain, - As if to say “I am so dry, - I’d like to drink the fountain!” - -[Illustration] - -[Illustration] - - But when they drew a pail for him, - (You really scarce might think it,) - He wagged his tail and winked his eye, - And simply wouldn’t drink it. - - It chanced one day they went to pay - Their morning salutation, - But though they called, he never came, - Much to their consternation. - - They sought him high, they sought him low, - But no! they could not find him, - They said “He will, he must come back, - And bring his tail behind him.” - - They sought him up the windy cliff, - And down the ferny hollow, - And still they said “He can’t be lost!” - And still their feet did follow. - - Alas! they found him dead at last— - Alas! for Ruth and Mary: - But then, you see, he always was - So crooked and contràry. - -[Illustration] - -[Illustration] - - - - -[Illustration: _MINNIE’S CALCULATIONS._] - - Said Minnie with pride, - As she counted her chicks, - “When they’re grown a bit bigger, - I’ll sell all the six. - And as each ought to fetch - At the least half a crown, - I can quite well afford me - A new Sunday gown.” - - Alas for our castles! - How soon they all slip! - The cat ate one chicken, - And one got the pip; - And while mourning their brother - And sister, the four - Were crushed by the carter-boy - Slamming the door. - - _Don’t reckon your chickens_ - _Before they are hatched_, - Is a proverb some fancy - Can never be matched. - But I think that this other - Deserves to be told:— - _Don’t count on their value_ - _Until they are sold._ - -[Illustration] - - - - -[Illustration: _DREAMS._] - - Sometimes, beneath the brightest skies, - The children pause amid their play, - With parted lips and earnest eyes - In silence looking far away. - We may not know, we cannot see - The wonder-world whereon they gaze; - Heaven grant, whate’er their dreams may be, - They find them true in after days! - Dreaming sit the children, - Pausing in their play, - Dreaming of what is, ah! so sweet, - Because, because so far away. - - And we too have our dreams, our own, - Amid the rush and toil of life, - Our dreams of days and things long flown, - That come like peace comes, after strife. - Old hands we feel, old eyes we see, - Within our ears old voices ring; - They are but dreams, maybe, maybe, - But oh! the blessing that they bring. - Dreaming like the children, - We dream from day to day, - Dreaming of what is, ah! so sweet, - Because, because so far away. - -[Illustration] - - - - -[Illustration: _SORROWS._] - - There are sorrows, little children, - That you cannot understand, - As you watch our tears in wonder, - As you take us by the hand. - There are sorrows, little children, - You cannot bear them yet, - But you nestle close beside us, - And you help us to forget. - You comfort us, my darlings, - And yet you know not how; - You show us Heaven is near us, - Though our tears may blind us now. - - There are little ones in Heaven, - Gone a little while before, - And they stand, to watch us coming, - Beside the golden door. - There are little ones in Heaven, - They are calling you and me, - When our hearts have grown forgetful, - And our feet would wayward be. - We can hear them, if we listen, - We may meet them all one day, - When our tears shall fall no longer, - And the shadows flee away! - -[Illustration] - - - - -[Illustration: _THE POET AND THE PRINTER._] - - Two little girls—I met them once, - But quite forget their name, - You’ll find them on page twenty-four, - The printer is to blame, - The picture ought to face the words, - But there! it’s all the same. - - Two little girls, as I remarked, - They left their snug abode, - Because they thought their dinner must - Taste better on the road, - For forks and spoons and tablecloths, - They really incommode. - - The ditch is far, far pleasanter - Than any high-backed chair, - I’m sure you will agree with them - If you’ll observe them there; - And when they’d finished, off they trudged - All thro’ the summer air. - - At last they reached a bridge (the bridge - You’ll see on twenty-five), - And on the bridge those little girls - Are hanging all alive; - It’s marvellous how hanging - Will make some children thrive! - -[Illustration] - - They pondered which was best, to be - Upon the bridge or under, - And what they’d do suppose the bridge - Were just to split asunder, - But as they couldn’t settle that, - They gave it up in wonder. - - Now, had these children dined at home, - I think I may explain, - We never should have seen them here - At dinner in the lane: - Unless when they had dined at home - They’d dined out here again. - - And had the bridge been never built - I think it must appear - These children ne’er had found it, though - They’d sought from year to year; - So, how they could have hung on it, - Is not exactly clear. - - And had I said, when I was asked, - “I cannot sing in winter, - I’ve run my throat against a door, - And spiked it with a splinter;”— - It would have put the artists out, - And much annoyed the printer! - -[Illustration] - - - - -[Illustration: _HARRY’S SOLILOQUY._] - - “There’s ne’er a kitty so sweet and so pretty, - There’s ne’er such a kitty I’ve seen in my life; - “I’m certain,” said Harry, “if ever I marry, - I shall only want kitty, a house, and a wife.” - - “This dear old barrow is nice, though it’s narrow, - It will do very well to take us about; - For my income of course is too small to keep horses, - But that doesn’t matter, we’ll manage without.” - - But alas! for the dreams of the barrow and kitten, - His father’s old pointer came back from the wood; - And the poor little pussy with terror was smitten, - And scampered away as fast as she could. - - And the gardener returned from his evening ablution, - And trundled the barrow straight off to the shed; - And Mary arrived, and with stern resolution - Just carried off Harry and put him to bed. - -[Illustration] - - - - -[Illustration: _THE DEAD RABBIT._] - - Weep on! he has a happier fate - Than many such as he, - To lie there in the gentle snow, - And die so quietly: - To feel your warm tears fall on him, - To feel your tender hands. - You _know_ he feels as well as you, - You _know_ he understands. - - He might have now been dying - Shot by a cruel gun; - With panting heart and glazing eye - For life he might have run. - E’en now he might be hanging - Above your larder shelves, - And you, you might, indeed you might, - Have eaten him yourselves. - - Weep on!

Thus, we do not -necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper -edition. - -Most people start at our website which has the main PG search -facility: www.gutenberg.org - -This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, -including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary -Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to -subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/old/69938-0.zip b/old/69938-0.zip Binary files differdeleted file mode 100644 index 48b89e7..0000000 --- a/old/69938-0.zip +++ /dev/null diff --git a/old/69938-h.zip b/old/69938-h.zip Binary files differdeleted file mode 100644 index 51fff94..0000000 --- a/old/69938-h.zip +++ /dev/null diff --git a/old/69938-h/69938-h.htm b/old/69938-h/69938-h.htm deleted file mode 100644 index ae46f69..0000000 --- a/old/69938-h/69938-h.htm +++ /dev/null @@ -1,2344 +0,0 @@ -<!DOCTYPE html> -<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> - <head> - <meta charset="UTF-8"> - <title> - Told in the Twilight | Project Gutenberg - </title> - - <link rel="icon" href="images/cover.jpg" type="image/x-cover"> - - <style> - -a { - text-decoration: none; -} - -body { - margin-left: 10%; - margin-right: 10%; -} - -h1,h2 { - text-align: center; - clear: both; -} - -h2.nobreak { - page-break-before: avoid; -} - -hr.chap { - margin-top: 2em; - margin-bottom: 2em; - clear: both; - width: 65%; - margin-left: 17.5%; - margin-right: 17.5%; -} - -img.w100 { - width: 100%; -} - -div.chapter { - page-break-before: always; -} - -p { - margin-top: 0.5em; - text-align: justify; - margin-bottom: 0.5em; - text-indent: 1em; -} - -table { - margin: 1em auto 1em auto; - width: 28em; - border-collapse: collapse; -} - -td { - padding-left: 2.25em; - padding-right: 0.25em; - vertical-align: top; - text-indent: -2em; -} - -.tdpg { - vertical-align: bottom; - text-align: right; - white-space: nowrap; -} - -.caption { - text-align: center; - margin-bottom: 1em; - font-size: 90%; - text-indent: 0em; -} - -.center { - text-align: center; - text-indent: 0em; -} - -.figcenter { - margin: auto; - text-align: center; -} - -.larger { - font-size: 150%; -} - -.pagenum { - position: absolute; - right: 4%; - font-size: smaller; - text-align: right; - font-style: normal; -} - -.poetry-container { - text-align: center; -} - -.poetry { - display: inline-block; - text-align: left; -} - -.poetry .stanza { - margin: 1em 0em 1em 0em; -} - -.poetry .verse { - padding-left: 3em; -} - -.poetry .indent0 { - text-indent: -3em; -} - -.poetry .indent2 { - text-indent: -2em; -} - -.poetry .indent4 { - text-indent: -1em; -} - -.poetry .indent6 { - text-indent: 0em; -} - -.poetry .indent8 { - text-indent: 1em; -} - -.poetry .indent10 { - text-indent: 2em; -} - -.poetry .indent14 { - text-indent: 4em; -} - -.smcap { - font-variant: small-caps; - font-style: normal; -} - -.titlepage { - text-align: center; - margin-top: 3em; - text-indent: 0em; -} - -.x-ebookmaker img { - max-width: 100%; - width: auto; - height: auto; -} - -.x-ebookmaker .poetry { - display: block; - margin-left: 1.5em; -} - -.illowp70 {width: 70%;} -.x-ebookmaker .illowp70 {width: 100%;} - - </style> - </head> -<body> -<p style='text-align:center; font-size:1.2em; font-weight:bold'>The Project Gutenberg eBook of Told in the twilight, by F.
