Home Rhymes


Book Description

Excerpt from Home Rhymes: From "Breakfast Table Chat" To the author's brother, Mr. Harry R. Guest, much of the credit for this little volume is due, as every line of type used in its prep aration was hand set by him. No other hands but his have shared in the actual making of the book. It was a work of many months, and stands as an instance of industry, patience and devotion to a brother's cause. The selection of verses was made with a view to preserving, as far as possible, thesimpler rhymes of home. The little events of every day life, the laughable, discomforting and sorrowing incidents that occur daily have been the source of the author's inspiration. If but here and there a true note has been sounded, if the song that was written to cheer has really cheered, the author will feel that his labor has not been in vain.

Breakfast Table Chat


Book Description

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1914 edition. Excerpt: ...HESE are the lessons I would learn, Not how to climb above all men, Not how the greatest sums to earn, Not how to wield a master pen; But I would learn how I can be A little kinder than before, How I can live more patiently And help my friends a little more. And I would learn to better show My gratitude for favors had, To see more of the good below And less of what I think is bad. To live not always in the day To come, and count the joys to be, But to remember, as I stray, The past and what it brought to me. To judge my life, not from today, Nor what tomorrow it may mean, But from each footstep of the way And from each pleasure that has been, Remembering in each present woe The love and laughter I have known; And to be grateful as I go, For joys that once I called my own. These are lessons I would learn: To be as brave in grief and care As I am when it is my turn To tread the road where all is fair. More grateful I would learn to be For what has been, as on I tread, And to press forward cheerfully. Content to face what lies ahead. One-Sided Faith XKNOW the rose will bloom again As soon as it is June, The robin will return by then To sing his merry tune. I know the wintry cold will pass, The gray clouds change to blue, But I think my present woe, alas! Must last my whole life through. I view my little garden bare And smile from day to day, I know the green will glisten there As soon as it is May. I face the winter, brave of heart, I know that it will go, But every little ache and smart Sets me to grieving so. If I can view the winter's snow, My garden desolate And smile, because right well I know If I will only wait The days of spring will soon return, And bring me back the rose, Have I not wit enough to learn That time will cure my woes?...

The "breakfast-Table" Series


Book Description

Excerpt from The "Breakfast-Table" Series: The Autocrat of the Breakfast-Table; The Professor at the Breakfast-Table; The Poet at the Breakfast-Table Dr. Oliver wendell holmes is essentially what is termed a furlny fellow. He is one of the funniest fellows to be found, perhaps, in his native town of Boston and his native state of Massachusetts, which is saying a good deal; for in that grim, starched, intolerant, Puritanical country called New England a. Good deal more fun than you are aware of may be found, by those who seek for it, slyly lurking. A well-to-do, well-reputed, easy-going physician, Dr. Holmes has been for a long time, I take it, exempt from the cares of an actually bread-winning literary life, and can know but little of that eternal want of pence which vexes public men.
