Wafted towards me from the ebbing tide. Vainly to find amusement I had tried--The Dock, the Fleet, the Victualling Yard had seen, The Victory, and the spot whce Nelson died; To an old tar I turned of honest mien, I asked him how he fared? he answered, "All serene!" Long conversation with this man I had; Much chaff, more wickedness, most slang he spoke; He said, that since a "kid" (he meant a "lad,") He'd been a reg'lar British "Heart of Oak," And sailed all round the world with Captain Cook, And served in many a scrimmage, burst, and fight. Much more he told me: many a song and joke; A legend, too, in which I took delight. I'll tell it you: it served to pass my dreary night! THE LEGEND. Captain Augustus Herbert De Boots Was a swell in Her Majesty's Guard; From the sole of his foot right up to the roots Of his coal-black hair, There was none to compare, In feature, in stature, in grace, or in air, Or that species of living which people call "hard," With Captain Augustus De Boots. His chambers, which were in Pall Mall, were furnished in such taste, Such lavish liberality, some people called it waste; The finest dame Parisienne his neat hind phseton graced; He played high at French hazard, and he hunted, shot, and raced--Like a fine, young, dashing militaire, One of the present time! Though Pratt's and Limmer's give long ticks, they must be paid at last, And dunning notes, from every side, came pouring thick and fast; The heyday of prosperity with our young friend had passed, And, thinking o'er his future fate, one day he stood aghast--Did this fine, young, dashing militaire, One of the present time! For Levi and Moses, (Prononces in noses, ) "Who lived down in Houndsditch, that hotbed...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mrs. Braithwaite, self-appointed queen of her English village, finds herself dethroned, despised, and dismissed following her husband's selfish divorce petition. Never deterred, the threat of a family secret being revealed sets her hot-foot to London to find the only person she has left--her clever daughter Betty, who took work there at the first rumbles of war. But when she arrives, Betty's landlord, the timid Mr. Norris, informs her that Betty hasn't been home in days--with the chaos of the bombs, there's no telling what might have befallen her. Aghast, Mrs. Braithwaite sets her bullish determination to the task of finding her only daughter. Storming into the London Blitz, Mrs. Braithwaite drags the reluctant Mr. Norris along as an unwitting sidekick as they piece together Betty's unexpectedly chaotic life. As she is thrown into the midst of danger and death, Mrs. Braithwaite is forced to rethink her old-fashioned notions of status, class, and reputation, and to reconsider the question that's been puzzling her since her world overturned: How do you measure the success of your life?"--Publisher description.

Download or read book Women Writers and the Artifacts of Celebrity in the Long Nineteenth Century written by Maura Ives and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1788, the Catalogue of Five Hundred Celebrated Authors of Great Britain, Now Living forecast a form of authorship that rested on biographical revelation and media saturation as well as literary achievement. This collection traces the unique experiences of women writers within a celebrity culture that was intimately connected to the expansion of print technology and of visual and material culture in the nineteenth century. The contributors examine a wide range of artifacts, including prefaces, portraits, frontispieces, birthday books, calendars and gossip columns, to consider the nature of women's celebrity and the forces that created it. How did authors like Jane Austen, the Countess of Blessington, Louisa May Alcott, Alice Meynell, and Marie Corelli negotiate the increasing demands for public revelation of the private self? How did gender shape the posthumous participation of women writers such as Jane Austen, Ellen Wood, Mary Elizabeth Braddon and Christina Rossetti in celebrity culture? These and other important questions related to the treatment of women in celebrity genres and media, and the strategies women writers used to control their public images, are taken up in this suggestive exploration of how nineteenth and early twentieth century women writers achieved popular, critical, and commercial success.
