Rose White Youth Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Rose-White Youth I take this opportunity of stating that all the verses in this book are my own, save such quotations as are too well known to need a reference, and the charming rhyme from which the title is taken. In publishing other books of mine, I have had to answer numerous enquiries as to the source of the verses at the heads of chapters and throughout the book, when the author was not stated, and as to whether I have published any volume of verse. In order to save my unknown friends and myself trouble, I think it best to state that the verses "Rose-white Youth" are mine, and that I have not published, and am not publishing, any collection of my verse. I am indebted to the editor of the "Gentlewoman" for leave to reprint "A Child's Roundelay," which first appeared in that paper but through some omission without my name to it.

Excerpt from The White Rose, Vol. 1 Dear! Dear! Was there ever any state Of society in which youthful affections, fancies, attachments, call them what you will, were Of a material to withstand the Wear Of a little time, a little absence, a good deal of amusement bordering on dissipation Would such an Arcadia be pleasant or wearisome, or is it simply impossible Alas!

Excerpt from The White Rose I can work, sir, well enough, replied the pupil, when I have an object. An object! Retorted the tutor, lifting his eyebrows in that stage of astonishment which is but one degree removed from disgust; gracious heavens, sir, if your whole success in life, your character, your position, the very bread you eat, is not an object, I should like to know what is! Gerard knew, but he wasn't going to tell Mr. Archer; and I think that in this instance the latter showed less than his usual tact and discrimination in the characters of the young.

Excerpt from The White Queen: A Tale of the Youth of St. Louis, King of France The mother moved first. When the dawn stole through the chinks beneath the crazy door, she rose, stirred the dying fire, and felt for the hand of her child. It lay warm - too warm - within her own. Then the little one tossed on the trundle-bed, and in a hoarse voice asked for water. She was holding the cup to its lips when Jean the Miller roused from his straw close by, and the mother could guess His question before he uttered it.
