Excerpt from The Tragedy of Featherstone Twenty-five years ago there passed through Cobham Woods, within the space of one day and one night, many of the persons whose characters will be portrayed in these pages. Some I hope you will grow to love, and as to others who may not win your hearts, I warn you not to be too hasty to condemn. Unhappily there are souls which, from their first awakening, are overweighted with sins of human inheritance. The morning commenced with a grand song of thanksgiving, the initial signs of which were manifest just as the distant tree-tops and the breasts of distant heights were joyously quivering beneath the faint, sweet kisses of light which heralded the rising of the sun. Not all songs are audible; the most profound are those which are sung silently in the heart. Here, also, mute symbols of gratefulness mingled with the vocal notes which winged creatures were singing. Upland and lowland in Kent are fair as earth can show, and its gardens are beautiful and bountiful. The sensitive air which travelled over field and forest joined in the universal song of thanksgiving. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
