Excerpt from Companions of the Way: Being Selections for Morning and Evening Reading I have pleasure in expressing my gratitude to the many authors who have allowed me to include selections from their writings in this bool, some of whom have cheered the beggar at their doors, though a stranger, by the hand of fellowship held out, as well as by the gift given. I thank "A. Hi." for poems from "By Still Waters, " "The Divine Vision" and "Homeward Songs by the Way", Mr. A. C. Benson for two poems, and for prose extracts from "The Upton Letters" and "The Thread of Gold", Mr. William Braithwaite for a poem, Mr. Robert Bridges for seven poems, the Rev. Stopford A. Brooke for a hymn, Mr. John Buchan for two prose extracts and a poem from "A Lodge in the Wilderness", Mr. William Canton for passages from "A Child's Book of Saints", Mr. Gilbert Chesterton for a poem, and "C. M. E." for an extract from "The Many-sided Universe." I thank Mrs. Margaret Deland for the kind manner in which she has allowed me to use three poems from "The Old Garden", Professor Dowden for five poems, Mr. J. Meade Falkner for his "Infinite Canon at Toledo", C. C. Fraser-Tytler (Mrs. Edward Liddell) for one of her "Songs in Minor Keys ", Miss Joan M. Fry for two selections from "The Way of Peace", and Mr. Gosse for part of his "Secreta Vitæ." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
