Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Idylls of the Field
Suddenly, as swift as thought, along the jagged edge of yonder purple cloud there ?ashes out a thin line of gold. Over it hovers a soft ethereal fan of light like the herald angel of the dawn. Broader grows the fringe of gold, swiftly running left and right along the cloudy heights, and reddening as it goes. Tiny Cloud lets, unseen before, are touched with glowing fire, and ?oat like attendant Spirits clad in burnished gold. It is the gold of Paradise. N o ore of earthly mine ever shone with lustre a hundredth part so fair.
