Hearts Of Three Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The Heart of Life, Vol. 1 of 3 Along this road, during the summer, daily once each way, a tawdry coach rattles, gene rally top-heavy with tourists; but these in congruous apparitions pass, leaving no trace behind them, except perhaps some fragments of drifting paper; and by the time the dust raised by their transit has subsided all that stirs in the landscape is the fleece of some moving sheep. A stranger, indeed, might look about him during the whole journey and detect no sign of human occupation anywhere except some stretches of dry stone wall, which at certain places appear, skirting the road, and accentuate rather than relieve the solitary aspect of the scene. Nowhere do these walls produce this for lorn effect upon the mind more strongly than at a point about eight miles out from Lyncombe, where the road, after a long and rugged climb from the sea-level, reaches at last a high and wind-swept down, which is bare of everything but boulders and stunted grass. What could be the need of any en closure here is a question that well might baffle the passing curiosity of the traveller.
