Excerpt from Never-Told Tales "Never-Told Tales." I have no doubt that many good souls after reading these humble pages will think: 'Twould have been better, if these tales had still remained untold. Some people are so squeamish that they are shocked by the simplest truths. You cannot argue with a person's sense of propriety. The nudity of the new-born babe has been known to shock deeply the sensibilities of some old maids. With such people I have no quarrel. All I can say is: honi soit qui mal y pense. Everybody is entitled to his opinions and to his feelings. For my part I will say: It is a pity, a heartbreaking pity, that these tales were not told long, long ago. "There is too much misery in this world" is the plaint of Edmond About's poor Auvergnat. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
