Jessie Of Boulogne Or The History Of A Few Minutes PDF Download

Excerpt from Jessie of Boulogne, Vol. 2 of 3: Or the History of a Few Minutes "Ah me! for aught that ever I could read, Could ever hear by tale or history, The course of true love never did run smooth; But, either it was different in blood, Or else misgraffed, in respect of years: Or else it stood upon the choice of friends: Or, if there were a sympathy in choice, War, death, or sickness did lay siege to it: Making it momentary as a sound. Swift as a shadow, short as any dream, Brief as the lightning in the collied night, That, in a spleen, unfolds both heaven and earth, And ere a man hath power to say, Behold! The jaws of darkness do devour it up: So quick bright things come to confusion." Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream." How curious and unfortunate, it seemed to Cyril, that here were two houses, in both of which Jessie had been; and yet in neither of them could he learn anything whatsoever concerning her.
