Excerpt from Pansies and Asphodel It is a remarkable fact that in one respect the Folklore of the Russians differs from that of most other nations; Ilia of Mourom, the favourite hero, who is greater even than King Vladimir himself, is a peasant's son, and M ikoula, another prominent character, is a villager.

Excerpt from Daffodils Pansies, and Violets, and Asphodel To The Wayfarer. Straight to the shining heaven the daffodil Her cup doth hold; Asking and gathering the sweet light until It brims with gold. Then, though the under-shies be dun and gray, Earth cold and crass, With changeless mien she sits there brave and gay In the meek grass, Showing her trophy of a fairer day To all that pass. If any little reaching upward so, Above life's ills, Have found the o'er-brooding summer, whose great glow To gladness fills Heart-blooms for me, - partake them as you go, My daffodils.

Excerpt from Asphodels and Pansies Before closing this preface, it will not be amiss, per haps, to give the origin of the title and sub-titles of the book. Out of my tender love for the flowers was born the title of my book, - the Asphodels and Pansies standing sponsors, and bestowing their joint names upon it. But it was with no thought of the sentiments accorded to these, in the Language of Flowers, that led me to call it this.

Excerpt from Wayside Pansies Flora's Favors. Oct 17, 1888 I would that I ruled Flora, queen of flowers, To bid her lay her kingdom at thy feet, To bring thee bliss, to give thee gladness sweet, To lead thy way through beauty-laden bowers. Not only pansies then would bright thy hours, But violets, too, from many a fair retreat Where modesty and thought in concord meet, To rain their sentiments in gentle showers. The lilies pure would ever seek thy face To gain thy beauty's favor, and to prove Their lives and thine a wondrous garden plot Of living joy, the halo of thy grace. Id crown thee last with roses, rich in love, hen humbly pray to thee: "Forget-me-not." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Pansies: A Book of Poems "Lo, my seam is but begun, And my flax is but half spun. The red sun dippeth to the sea - Come not here to hinder me." "Leave thy sewing, and rise up. Tarry not to weep nor sup. Beyond sun, beyond sea, Maid, thou must go with me." "Nay, for I first must weave, Whiter than stars at eve, Robe wherein to habit me What day wedded I shall be." 'More white than on the wing Snowflakes, a robe I bring - More white than the face of the dead, To wind thee in from feet to head."
