About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1919. Excerpt: ... Sweet island of beauty, I love thee I long for thy peaceful repose, And the rainbow of promise above thee That circled the bloom of the rose! Again, on the dream-tide of slumber, I drift to that island again, And lo! the bright visions of childhood Eclipse the sad pictures of pain! I hear the soft music of minstrels. That charmed the sweet twilights of old And bathe in the glory of sunsets That melted the days into gold. Bright island of beauty, I love thee! Oh, give me again thy repose, And the rainbow of promise above thee That circled the bloom of the rose! No cares ever haunted my spirit On that beautiful island of bliss, And visions of paradise charmed me Unveiled by a mother's fond kiss, But shadows since then have fallen, And Sorrow has threaded her seam, And I long to be quiet forever On the isle of my boyhood's dream! Dear island of beauty, I love thee, And may I forever repose 'Neath the summer lit arch of the rainbow That circled the bloom of the rose! THE LAND OF MEMORY. Behind the weary pilgrim lies, though dark his path may be, An ever blooming paradise--the land of memory; A land in which his soul first dreamed the dreams of youth and fame, And life, in all its witchery, seemed the romance of a name. A name to fill the after years, as stars the fields sublime, Remembered in a nation's tears through all the tides of time; In fortune's sea of smiles to bask and all her wealth command Seemed but an idle school boy's task in that romantic land. No ills that vex the passing hour disturb that land's repose, Or pilfer of a single flower this empire of the rose; In spite of life's dark checkered way, its brood of cares that fret This land in one perennial May still holds the violet! - No brush has ever limned that land, its clover-scented leas...
