Wayside Gleanings In Europe Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Wayside Gleanings in Europe As the gleaner, at the close of the day, carefully as sorts every head of wheat gathered, and binds the golden grain into sheaves, so was I in the habit of assorting and storing away the fruits of each day at its close. In secluded mountain retreats, in village inns, and in the more noisy quarters of the crowded city, I thrashed the harvest and garnered it in articles for the columns and pages of different periodicals. Thus it happened that the greater part of this volume was written at or near the places to which reference is made. The impressions of men and manners, of things seen, heard and felt, were noted down when yet fresh and vivid in the mind.

Excerpt from Gleanings by the Way I ran to many things that were wild, Which God's law does forbid. And when I became a man, I still followed the road of sin, Which led me to the devil's hand; Thus I did my manhood begin. When a child about two or three, My mother did me begin To teach me my A, B, C About He who died to save from sin. But not being a mental scholar, And loving to follow in sinful mirth The devil captured my mind as his fallow, As sin was sown in my nature from my birth. Thus I lived in years of sinful pleasure Until I was about thirty-eight; Drinking in the gall without measure, Until a very few years of late. Now when I am fifty years of age, Not possessing one earthly dollar, I come the truths of the Gospel to engage, Not spending one hour as a mental scholar.

Excerpt from Gleanings in Holy Fields The spiritual harvests of the Holy Land have been rich beyond comparison, and the labourers have been numerous beyond count. But what astonishes one most in that wonderful land is what remains in it over and above, that has not been gathered into the gamer. The gleanings of it are more abundant than the Whole harvests of other lands. Every reaper seems, like the young men of Boaz in the fields of Bethlehem, to let fall some of the handfuls on purpose for the benefit of his successor. I have been gleaning even among the sheaves, and I trust that for what I have stored up in this form I shall not be reproached.
