Excerpt from Talks About the Weather in Its Relation to Plants and Animals: A Book of Observations for Farmers, Students, and Schools There lived at one time a man, who, being in want, and having long waited for Fortune, concluded that he would go in search of her. So he took what little money he had saved, shut up his house, and set out upon his travels in search Of Fortune. He journeyed on for many days, and made diligent inquiry of those he met as to where Fortune might be found. Some said she was in one place, and some were quite sure she was in another place. All were certain she did not dwell with them, and many said that perhaps she might be found a little farther on. Several even said that she had been with them but lately, and had just gone away to another place. After travelling many leagues, and spending all his money, he sadly returned to his own home, and there found Fortune seated on his doorstep, as if waiting his return. As he drew near, she rose quickly, and said, I have been waiting here for some time, in the hope that you would let me into your house. I have waited so long now, that I must go away to find Others more ready to welcome me. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
