Excerpt from Under the LilacsHE elm-tree avenue was all overgrown, the great gate was never unlocked, and the Old house had been Shut up for several years.Yet voices were heard about the place, the lilacs nodded over the high wall as if they said, We could tell fine secrets if we chose, and the mullein outside the gate made haste to reach the keyhole, that it might peep in and see what was going on.If it had suddenly grown up like a magic bean stalk, and looked in on a certain June day, it would have seen a droll but pleasant Sight, for somebody evidently was going to have a party.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
