Book Description

Excerpt from Atlanta's Race, and Two Other Tales From the Earthly Paradise For nigh the time when first that land they won, When new-born March made fresh the hopeful air, The wanderers sat within a chamber fair, Guests of that city's rulers, when the day Far from the sunny noon had fallen away; The sky grew dark, and on the window-pane They heard the beating of the sudden rain. Then, all being satisfied with plenteous feast, There spoke an ancient man, the land's chief priest, Who said, Dear guests, the year begins to-day, And fain are we, before it pass away.
