Book excerpt: Excerpt from The King and Cobbler: A Romance of Ancient Persia Among all the cities of old, the ruins of which are now left to tell of the mighty age that has long since passed away, none exceeded in extent, in wealth, or in grandeur, Persepolis, the chief capital of ancient Persia. At the foot of a steep, rugged mountain, was extended a wide plain, watered by a goodly river. Upon all hands this plain was shut in by high cliffs of rock, looming darkly in the distance, leaving the level space some five-and-twenty miles in length, and upon this was the city built, occupying the whole vast area. The wealth of the royal palace almost exceeds belief. It was a vast structure, serving not only for the royal residence, but also for a citadel and bulwark. Its colonnade of massive pillars still stands, and is a fit object of wonder. These pillars are of gray marble and seventy feet high, and their capitals, which are of an order of architecture differing from any other then in use, are beautiful in the extreme. The interior of this kingly abode was literally cased with gold and precious stones, and to count or estimate the wealth there displayed, were a task beyond the ability of one man. And then other evidences of grandeur were built in the city, and upon all hands were to be seen sculptures and towers, and courts and monuments. And as though the vast plain gave not room enough for the ingenuity of the sculptors, the faces of the very rocks that formed the cliff wall of the city were cut and carved in a most elaborate and finished manner. Into the facts of the larger rocks were cut tombs and sepulchral chambers, with beautiful porticos richly sculptured from the solid cliff. Truly the king of Persia had wealth, for his capital contained within itself the wealth of a nation. And he had power, for thousands on thousands bowed down to do him homage, and princes and potentates acknowledged his authority. Next in importance among the palaces of Persepolis to that of the king was the palace of Rustem, one of the most powerful satraps, or governors, of the realm. Rustem was now past the meridian of life, but still strong and vigorous, and fond of all those manly sports which were the delight of the warrior race of that period. He was a favorite of the king, a friend to those who bowed to him, and sometimes generous and benevolent to the poor. He could be warm and ardent in his attachments, and he could love with his whole heart; but there was no principle, no moral obligation, felt by him. He was the slave of impulse, and the owner of a will that would not bend. Very slight causes would attract his friendship, and causes just as slight would arouse his anger and hate. Above all things else did he love to be honored and obeyed and flattered. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Omar, the Tentmaker: A Romance of Old Persia The great Clock of the Ages had scarcely more than marked with its hour-hand the beginning of its second revolution since the birth of our era. In England, Edward the Confessor was just closing his long and virtuous reign, and William the Conqueror was setting sail from France with his suite of Nor man knights; Sancho III. Was king in Spain; Henry IV. Was king in Germany, and Philip I. In France. The mighty impulse that led to the Crusades, and sent millions of men to fight and die in the ideal cause of freeing the holy places from the contami nating control of the Saracens, was already beginning to be felt throughout Europe.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Darkness and Daybreak: Personal Experiences, Manners, Customs, Habits, Religious and Social Life in Persia I cannot begin to write a narrative of the facts con nected with the history of my life, without giving all glory and praise to the most precious God, who has so wonderfully guided me, during the last ten years especially. No words like those of the Scriptures can adequately express my heart's gratitude for all the ways by which he has led me, and you, dear reader, will magnify him while reading as I did while writing this. Let us exalt His name forever; let the Lord be mag nified, which taketh pleasure in the prosperity of His elect. Praise ye the Lord, for His name is excellent; His glory is above the heavens. I have been deeply tried; yes, the Lord is with the righteous; Lo, I am with you. Surely He has been with me His presence has gone before me and has given me strength and cour age. He faileth not. I have heard his voice saying, Fear not, I will help thee. And He has done so; yea, in the deepest waters; in all places His hand has led me and He has kept me. With David I can say, God is my salvation. Iwill trust and not be afraid. Icried by reason of my affliction unto the Lord, and he answered me. The Lord stood by me and strengthened me, say ing: My strength is made perfect in weakness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mariam: A Romance of Persia This story is not fiction, except in its arrangement and details. The incidents are for the most part from real life and give a true picture of conditions and missionary work among the Armenians of Per sia. It is the product of the leisure hours of a fur lough in America, and was written at the suggestion of one who believes that the presentation of facts in story form is well calculated to interest young people in Missions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rose Garden of Persia To the Orientalist is known the extreme dith culty of conveying in any European tongue the exact meaning of the poet: the Germans have perhaps succeeded best in consequence of the con struction of their language; but mere words alone in Persian sometimes express so much that the translator finds all his efforts unavailing to render them of the same force. For instance, the Per sians have words and names which at one view exhibit many qualities without more explanation, and which throw a charm over their songs, impos sible to reach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gulzar; Or the Rose-Bower: A Tale of Persia It was now that season of the year when all nature seemed ready to burst forth into joy and gladness. Win ter had fled, and the young buds were putting forth their tender leaves, the Earth was robing herself in her mantle of green, the song of the bulbul was heard among the young rose-leaves, the laugh of happiness came echoing along the clear breast of the river; but all brought not the smile of joy to the eye of the fading gulzar, nor the bloom of health to the cheek of the daughter of aga. The heart of the Shah grew sad as he witnessed the decline of his beautiful and favorite child - the hope of his old age - the daughter of his loved and loving FA Tmm - and he ordered proclamation to be made over all his Kingdom, announcing the sickness of the Princess, and offering a reward equal to the ransom of a Prince, to him who should restore to health and happiness his only child. No sooner had the proclamation been made, than from afar came the most renowned Doctors of Iran, from the burning sands of Kirman, and the frozen mountains of Tartary - from the East, North, West and South came the young and the old to behold the waning Star of Teheran, fondly hoping that some one of them might be so fortunate as to restore to joy and happiness the lovely daughter of the King.
