Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Girl of Galway
T was four O'clock in the morning, an exquisite June morning. Only a little while ago the nightingale had dropped asleep, and already the blackbird was beginning. Inland it would be a drowsy day Of cuckoos. Here by the sea there was the quiet wash Of the waves on the shore and the monotonous cooing Of a pair of stock-doves in a cage outside the window, scarcely less dreamy.
Early as it was, two people were already up and dressed, and watching the golden first ?ood Of sunshine on the sea from the little eastward-looking window.
