Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Eliza Cook It is with considerable pride, and more pleasure, that I now present to my readers in one volume the whole of my poems, at a price which, I hope, will be within the means of those who could not afford the purchase of my previous editions; and if I can still retain the sympathy and support of "the people" I shall be amply rewarded, and wish for no more richly-gilded laurel. I have been too long before the Public to have anything new to express or explain relative to the compositions now again tendered for their reception. I can only offer my earnest thanks for the generous patronage which has always followed the numerous editions of my works; and declare that I am still, as I ever have been, inspired alone by "love and goodwill" toward those who have so kindly helped me along my chequered path, by freely responding to my simple effusions. Let me add, that I am very happy in the assurance afforded me through that response, of many genial cars and hearts being as open to the whistle of the woodland robin, as they are to the paean of the cloud-piercing skylark.

Excerpt from A Feast of Good Things: A Cook Book The stock for soup should always be made from uncooked meats; upon this depends fine flavor. Cut meat and bone into small pieces, put in cold water and simmer and boil gently, without salt. Never boil soup meat fast. Add salt when thoroughly done.

Excerpt from The Blue Grass Cook Book It is June in Japan, and it is June in that blessed land of the Blue Grass. The sun shines there, no doubt, right now: the corn top's. Ripe; the meadows are in bloom and along turnpike and out in the fields the song and laughter of darkies make gay the air. It is early morning. The singing of birds comes through the open windows - the chatter of blackbirds and the mid-air calls of far away meadow larks. Through those windows sleepy eyes see wood and field, with stretches of blossoming blue grass rip pling in the wind. Another half-conscious doze for an hour, another awakening, and by your bed stands a black boy in a snowy apron, his white teeth shining, and in his kindly black paws a silver goblet on a silver tray. Heavens, how it hurts to smell that mint this far away The goblet is gleaming with frost, and the mint is still drenched.
