Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fallen Fortunes, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel Stern in calm! To one who observes her closely, Nature has at this time a listening air; the giant boulders, in their statuesque magnificence, seem to be awaiting something, the utterance, it may be, of some magic charm that shall confer a wondrous transformation; the ash is leaning and listening; even the tufts of heather stand stiffly up, as though in expectation. If he be alone in such a scene, Man himself mechanically listens also; and to some a voice is vouchsafed - uncertain, vague, yet pregnant, so it seems, with eternal mysteries; and by others there is no sound heard, save the whisper of the wind among the trees, or the murmur of the stream as it hurries to the fall.
