Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lays and Legends of Ancient Greece Dear Friend, who by Corstorphine's bosky bower, From the shrill strife of wrangling law remote, Reapest the mellow fruits of quiet thought, Receive in Jeffrey's quaint and ivied tower This little book. Though from the grand parade Of printed verdicts thou hast long been free, The man who loved the Muse still found in Thee A judge to value, and a friend to aid. Thou, the nice student of fine-thoughted Keats, Mayst find my rhymes cast in too rough a mould For thy keen sense, fed with essential sweets: If so, speak free; I'll take thy blame for gold, And count their coin for brass, with false fair phrase Who blow the nattering trump before my Lays.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of Ancient Greece The Tales collected in this volume have, with one exception, appeared in the 'Tales from Greek Mythology, ' 'The Gods and Heroes, ' and 'Tales of Thebes and Argos.' The 'Tales from Greek Mythology' were written for the use of young children. It has been found necessary to modify a few of these stories, to bring them nearer to the level of the rest. The story of the 'Vengeance of Odysseus' has been added to complete the series of legends from the Odyssey, so as to give some idea of that poem as a whole. In place of the longer introductions prefixed to the 'Gods and Heroes' and to the 'Tales of Thebes and Argos, ' a new introduction is given, tracing each story to its earliest form, and resolving it into its original elements. I have here placed before the reader results rather than proofs. Recent discussions on the subject seem to justify the conviction that the foundations of the science of Comparative Mythology have been firmly laid, and that its method is unassailable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Myths of Greece and Rome: Narrated With Special Reference to Literature and Art These myths, an inexhaustible fund Of inspiration for the poets and artists of the past, nave also inspired many noted modern works. To impress this fact forcibly upon the student, appropri ate quotations from the poetical writings of all ages, from Hesiod's Works and Days, to Tennyson's (enone, have been inserted in the text, while reproductions of ancient masterpieces and noted examples of modern painting and sculpture are plentifully used as illustrations. The myths are told as graphically and accurately as possible, great care being taken, however, to avoid the more repulsive features of heathen mythology; and when two or more versions of the same myth occur, the preference has invariably been given to the most popular, that is to say, to the one which has inspired the greatest works. Both the Latin and the Greek forms of proper names are given, but the Latin names are usually retained throughout the narrative, because more frequently used in poetry and art.
