A Wayfarer's Log (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from A Wayfarer's Log The object and purpose of this book is to invite the reader to accompany in imagination, the Author in many wanderings over the open roads of the United Kingdom. To breathe the pure air, to enjoy the rich colour of the hedgerows to meet and converse with all sorts and conditions of roadmen; to partake of the hospitality of old inns, wayside cottages, or, if benighted, the friendly hedge itself to clamber over mountain peaks, over purple-clad moors, over sandy dunes to explore caves, climb cliffs to listen to the roaring winds and mighty seas of Cornwall and the West to realise what a beau tiful country is ours and what a magnificent field it presents for those in search of health or holiday to meet with incidents and adventures, interesting, hazardous or amusing.

The Wayfarer


Book Description

Excerpt from The Wayfarer: Leaves From a Wanderer's Log Friends there are who speak to me as I turn my notebook leaves in retrospect, snatched from a life of promise to a nobler service. Friends there are, still lending of their strength, though long since lost amid the throng Nay, are such friends ever lost? For the rest, life itself, and this small tome which speaks thereof, belongs not to any Wayfarer, but to all those strong spirits of welcome place, and kindly person, the pledge of whose fraternity it is.

The Wayfarer (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Wayfarer Wayfaring does not merely signify the record of a tramp from place to place, the account Of What the wayfarer sees with his eyes and bears with his ears. What is Of most import is that which appeals to the intellectual, the spiritual, or the imaginative part Of man. Poetry emphasizes beauties before only half seen, and formulates and even creates appreciations till then in embryo or unconceived. The Editor has therefore appealed to the great writers to tell people something of what he, as a wayfarer, thinks and feels, but cannot adequately express.

The Wayfarers (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Wayfarers Nor all the shining marvel of the place, Dream beyond dream unfolding, might compare In memory with that moment's blessedness. VIII. With hearts renewed and vision wondrous clear, Across the gleaming champaign we moved on, Exchanging thoughts of loveliness and cheer. Surely we deemed all miseries were done; Surely, though still with human lips we spake, The region of immortal life was won. IX. Pir: c Voice. To gain such end sublime did we forsake The calm allurements of our ancient home, Long journey o'er the pathless seas to take. Second Voice. Ah! In this country whither we are come, List to the song-birds round us, wild and sweet Our tread scarce soils the blossoms white as foam. Third Voice. Now backward from my glowing heart the feet Of Time are tramping swiftly: great desires Surge as of old, with Wing and voice complete.
