Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Parisians, Vol. 2 of 2
ON waking some morning, have you ever felt, reader, as if a change for the brighter in the world, without and within you, had suddenly come to pass - some new glory has been given to the sunshine, some fresh balm to the air - you feel younger, and happier, and lighter, in the very beat of your heart - you almost fancy you hear the chime of some spiri tual music far off, as if in the deeps of heaven? You are not at first conscious how, or wherefore, this change has been brought about. Is it the effect of a dream in the gone sleep, that has made this morning so different from morn ings that have dawned before? And while vaguely asking yourself that question, you become aware that the cause is no mere illusion, that it has its substance in words spoken by living lips, in things that belong to the work-day world.
