Excerpt from Dick's Love, or the Shadow of CawnporeA boy sat on a stile, humming the air of a school-song, at the same time whittling a stick with a good deal of absorbed interest.The evening was quiet, no wind swayed the branches of the lime-trees, raising to the grey vault overhead their unclothed arms thickly encrusted with hoar frost, which scintillated like precious gems in the sun's dying light.It was late November, and Nature, weary with the strenuous efforts of the sweet unfolding of spring and the further splendour of her summer and autumn work, had now laid herself gently down to winter's slumber."Master Anthony! Master Anthony, tea's ready, and Miss Bennet says you are to come at once!"About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
