Excerpt from Sea Drift: Or Tribute to the Ocean Vast and pliant Ocean, whose soft, large arms Enfold the Earth, holding in close embrace, To share with her the tireless daily round Through the long court-ways of the royal sun In unabated power and joy of might; We greet thee! Closest kin of air and light, And dowered like them with fair-souled purity. All hail, great Ocean, reprint of the sky! Inspired with motion, pauseless, with no end Motion, the quickened breath of panting stars, And wings on the round shoulders of the worlds, Heart-throbs of sound and all deep harmonies, The pulse of light, the soul of solar flame, Swift gliding footsteps on the floors of space, And poetry and bloom of measured time; Twin-born with sentient gain of finite life Ocean and Earth, in twofold majesty.

Excerpt from Seadrift, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel Excuse me, then you know my heart; But dearest friends, alas, must part.' IN the mean time Martha and Philip strolled through the lanes between the gardens and the lake, and Philip talked eagerly whilst Martha listened with more of pleasure than she had felt since the arrival of the letter from Norfolk, which had broken up their chance of domestic associa tion. Yet Philip spoke of separation for more than a year'; not much more perhaps, but quite a year. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Seadrift, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel Obtain a livelihood at the same time, by leaving Camberwell for Cornwall. There was in Seadrift a general shop; and a carpenter, who was also a ship-builder in a small way, having plenty of em ployment, if not in building, in repairing boats. The clergyman lived near the church, and three miles from the coast; so the doctor was the only person with pretensions to education near the sea.

Excerpt from The Human Drift Perhaps most amazing has been the South Sea Drift. Blind, fortuitous, precarious as no other drift has been, nevertheless the islands in that waste of ocean have received drift after drift of the races. Down from the mainland Of Asia poured an Aryan drift that built civilisations in Ceylon, Java, and Sumatra. Only the monu ments of these Aryans remain. They them selves have perished utterly, though not until after leaving evidences of their drift clear across the great South Pacific to far Easter Island. And on that drift they encountered races who had accomplished the drift before them, and they, the Aryans, passed, in turn, before the drift Of other and subsequent races whom we to-day call the Polynesian and the Melanesian.

Excerpt from Seadrift, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel Guercino had painted one of his fine beauti ful heads, grand in its despair, representing Dido stabbing herself on the funeral-pile, of which the flames gleamed their ill-omened light on the re creant and flying prince. Grief, pity, and terror were depicted in the faces of the attendants, and love and anguish in the countenance of her sister. The figures were highly relieved from the canvas by the strong light admitted by Guercino from' the top only of his studio on his models, which gave them a surprising solidity.'

Excerpt from Drift From Two Shores E lived beside a river that emptied into a i great ocean. The narrow strip of land that lay between him and the estuary was covered at high tide by a shining film of water, at low tide with the cast-up offerings of sea and shore. Logs yet green, and saplings washed away from in land banks, battered fragments of wrecks and orange crates of bamboo, broken into tiny rafts yet odorous with their lost freight, lay in long successive curves, the fringes and overlappings of the sea. At high noon the shadow of a sea-gull's wing, or a sudden flurry and gray squall of sand-pipers, themselves but shadows, was all that broke the monotonous glare of the level sands.
