The Gates Ajar Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The Gates Ajar One week; only one week to-day, this twenty-first of February. I have been sitting here in the dark and thinking about it, till it seems so horribly long and so horribly short; it has been such a week to live through, and it is such a small part of the weeks that must be lived through, that I could think no longer, but lighted my lamp and opened my desk to find something to do. I was tossing my paper about, - only my own: the packages in the yellow envelopes I have not been quite brave enough to open yet, - when I came across this poor little book in which I used to keep memoranda of the weather, and my lovers, when I was a schoolgirl. I turned the leaves, smiling to see how many blank pages were left, and took up my pen, and now I am not smiling any more. If it had not come exactly as it did, it seems to me as if I could bear it better. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Gates of Hell Ajar When I think of the crime referred to in these pages, its disregard of law, human and divine, an insult to the Author of our being, a despite to nature itself, and when I think what God has done to adorn and glorify humanity, and of the sacred relation of marital life, ordained in the garden of Eden, honored and blest by His Son, type of heaven, I cannot doubt that the lowest depth of depravity has been reached. The deliberate destruction of one, by those whom God has appointed, with the tenderest ties, to be its guardians and defenders! Blasted be the heart in which such a thought could spring! Smitten be the lips that would hint such a suggestion! Night has no darkness to cover the deed. Ordinary devils are ashamed of them, only the great red dragon, whose tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth can compare with these monsters in sin! They take precedence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
