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. 1884. Excerpt: ... VIII. MAY. Of Cherry Blossoms--the Nightingale's "melodious noise "--Of Broken Stones, etc., etc., etc. May 6.--The month of May would be Heaven upon earth if only it came in August or September, when summer mostly begins! but such cold, hard weather as we have had spoils sadly our enjoyment of the blossom trees and all the pleasures of spring. There have been just one or two sweet days, when the white Cherry orchards shone softly against a sky of serenest blue, days when we did but revel in the joyous present, forgetting quite that ever it could be that "Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May." Alas! all too soon our dream is dispelled; dark clouds arise, and we see "Heaven's gold complexion dimmed," and the orchard grass strewn with pearly wreck. The Cherry tree's magic season is at an end; it seemed to last scarcely longer than a day. With the first hot shafts of April's sun it startles into bloom shaken out in snowwreaths all over the tree, a waste of most lavish loveliness. It is something gained, once in the twelvemonths' round of commonplace, if only for a moment to stand beside a Cherry tree in blossom. The blue sky looks infinitely far off, seen through such a maze of flowery myriads. And now Apple blossoms are coming on in rosy swift succestion. How beautiful they are! and is it not time that water-colour artists should cease to weary, by attempting so vainly to pourtray them? (This only by the way.) They have the merit of lasting just long enough for us to enjoy them well; yet, beautiful as they are, I do not know if they can ever quite compare with the frail short-lived cherry. If the Espaliers in the kitchen garden alongside the middle walk would but flower together all as once, that walk in May would be better than any picture gallery....
