Red as a Rose is She By Rhoda Broughton Once upon a time-f-i like that old, time-honoured open ing it makes one so nobly free, gives one so much room to stretch one's wings in, ties one down to no king's reign, no hampering, cloggingcentury - once upon a time there was a valley in Taffy-land; there is still, unless some very re cent convulsion has upheaved it to the top of a mountain, or submerged it beneath the big Atlantic waves; a valley lovelier than that one in Ida, where beautiful Paris, evil-hearted Paris, pastured his sheep and his jet-black goats, and inaugurated his rakish course; a valley where there are no dangerous, good-looking Parises, only one or two red-headed Welsh squires, who have each married, or will in the fulness of time each marry, one lawful wife red-headed, too, very likely; and have never made, will never make, love to any Enones or other ill-conducted young shepherdesses. In fact, in that Arcadia there are no such shepherdesses the daughters of the Oymri do not ply the homely shepherd's trade, nor would they shed much ro mance over it if they did; for with sorrow be it spoken, blowsy are they mostly, hard-featured, toothless and, moreover, the little nimble, lean sheep that go scrambling and jumping and skurrying about the rough crags and steep hill sides do not need any crook'd and melodious Dowsa bellas or Neaeras to look after them and guide them in the way they should go. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
