Excerpt from Little Messages for Shut-in FolkFather takes you to himself and gives you the fruit of his vineyard. That sounded good to me.A far-away look came into the Old mans eyes, and a strange light played upon his fine old face while he placed his hand upon my knee and said, My young brother, have you not learned that the grapes of Eshcol hang over the wall for the children of God here and now?I did not understand then what the years have taught me since, but I went on my way, humbled, yet strangely exalted.It is no part of my purpose, therefore, to comfort those saints of God whom he is making perfect through suffering and Whom he comforts with exceeding great comfort. Most of these messages were written in the midst of a busy pastorate in a large city parish, where there were many aged and infirm people, simply that these lonely ones might catch the echoes of the sanctuary and feel that they were not forgotten. With like purpose I venture now to send them out on a wider mission.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Supplement to the Church Psalmist

Excerpt from D. Carlos Ie A Sua Obra Artistica e ScientificaComo marinista, D. Carlos é o pintor inesgotavel dos mares portuguezes e dessa portentosa bahia de Cascaes, 0 mais radiante trecho de belleza aquatica que eu creio que exista no mundo. A inflexo da terra tem ahi a doçura do mais cari nhoso amplexo, e a conjugaço luminosa do mar e do ceu na sua fluidez de saphira e em certos dias e certas horas, de um to profundo e intenso etleito hypnotico que, vendo ao lume dagua adejar a sinuosa e argentea revoada das gaivotas, a imagina ço enleada pergunta em spasmo se no so essas as pombas brancas do monte Brix, esvoaçadas do friso dorico do seu templo, em demanda da trireme hellenicaque em apotheose olympica nos traga, esculpida por Phidias, a divina imagem de Amphitrite, a me da belleza e do amor, aquella de quem o poeta disse

Excerpt from A Grammar of the ArtsA few illustrations have been included, to elucidate points to which attention is specially drawn. But the learner, if he is to acquire real knowledge, will do well to choose the bulk of his illustrations for himself, from the photographs, picture-books, and postcards which all good museums now publish, and to use them as tests, not only for the opinion of others, but for the growth of his own critical faculty. Those who wish to study the subject fully will do well to acquire some such handy compendium of history and pictures as M. Reinachs Apollo (heinemann), and a few of the admirable books on architecture and the applied arts issued by Messrs. Batsford and others. My particular thanks are due to Messrs. Lane for their permission to reproduce the Cambodian Sculpture group (plate II. A) from M. F aures recent and most suggestive volume The Spirit of the Forms. I must also record my grati tude to the late Major Frank Wedgwood, and his firm, for their generous help when studying the industry in which they have achieved well-merited distinction.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Hints to Collectors of Original Editions of the Works of William Makepeace Thackeray, Vol. 4This brings me to my subject, and to my object in writing and issuing these Hints to collectors of Thackerays works.It is needless for me to enlarge upon Thackerays merits. They are likely to be, more or less fully, recognized by everyone who reads these pages, and I will merely state my opinion that the modern Englishman, of average intelligence and educa tion, cannot do better than spend a little time and money in collecting the works of such a master of his native language, of so deep a thinker, if so sincere and noble a teacher as was William Makepeace Thackeray This being granted, it follows that all who can afford it should collect Thackerays works, in their first editions. Why? I have heard people ask. The answer is, that as, to a cultured taste, a rough sketch by an artist is preferable to a reproduction, however elaborate and highly finished a painters etching to a laborious line engraving, a proof of an etching or engraving to a print, - anything, in fact, tinged with originality to anything lacking it, so is the first edition of a work, in the form in which the author first issued it, preferable to the most elaborate and magnificent after-issue, while, of course, in the case of an illustrated book, the early impressions from a plate are better than the later impressions.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
