Excerpt from The Visits of Elizabeth Lady Cecilia pecked my Cheek, and gave me two fingers; and asked me, in a voice right up at the top, how were you. I said you were better, and - you know what you told me to say. She murmured something while she was listening to what a woman with a sweet frock and green eyes was saying at the other end of the table. There was heaps of tea. She waved vaguely for me to sit down, which I did; but there was a foot stool near, and it was half dark, so I fell over that, but not very badly, and got safely to my seat. Lady Cecilia - continuing her conversa tion across the room all the time poured out a cup of tea, with lumps and lump: of sugar in it, and lots of cream, just What you would give to a child for a treat! And she handed it to me, but I said, Oh! Please. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Loyal Hearts and True: A Tale of the Days of Queen Elizabeth And to be benighted in the New Forest, and forced to encamp there with a wounded comrade and no provisions, on a'chill evening in March, was no pleasant prospect, even for one pretty well inured to hardship. Already they had had rough experience of the treatment to which an unwary traveller might be exposed; and as the town of Romsey, could not be very far distant, it seemed advisable to push onwards if possible, and either halt there for the night, or at least strive to gain some small inn, or even some woodman's cabin, where they would have a roof over their heads, and some sort of bed for the wounded lad.

Excerpt from A Study of London in the Reign of Queen Elizabeth Under the tide "Shakespeare's London" I delivered a lecture in 1886, and again in the winter of 1887. Another lecture on the same subject, delivered at the Working Men's College in 1893, I entitled "Elizabethan London," partly because, in this lecture, I drew a contrast between Victorian London and the London of Shakespeare, but chiefly for the reason that I was then meditating the book which now sees the light, and reserved the title for this occasion. The book has grown out of these lectures, and it covers all the ground specially emphasised in each of them. Its scope may be readily indicated by the themes of the lectures. In the first, I dealt chiefly with the theatres in Shakespeare's London. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the author's personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.
