Excerpt from The Last of the Weirsmen: A Tragedy Boughs all icicle-dressed, a world Of crystal and beauty, Sprinkled and softened to white by the snow, the still-fallen snow.

Cheerly and bright is the blaze within, whose sparks through the wind-eye leap. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
