The Gentleman Of The Old School Vol 1 Of 2 PDF Download

Excerpt from The Gentleman of the Old School, Vol. 1: A Tale An answer has long since been found, and with these passed-by dreams of my early days, I have nothing more to do here, than to choose from amongst them such images as may best be suited to my present subject, believing as I do, that all the feelings, thoughts, and passions that affect the human mind, may find, in the material world around them, types of themselves and of their effects, while the changes of the seasons, the movement of the hours, the transitions of light and darkness, spring, summer, autumn, winter, day, twilight, night, and dawning, the cloudless sky, the passing shower, the storm, the tempest, and the earthquake, have each their counterparts in the mind and fate of man, more or less in the history of each individual, and always in the history of the world.
