Books with title In the Roar of the Sea, Vol. 1 of 3: A Tale of the Cornish Coast

Excerpt from In the Roar of the Sea: A Tale of the Cornish CoastShe formed a charming picture, fresh and pure, and had the old man not been overtired, he would have thought so with a throb of parental pride.She was a child in size, slender in build, delicate in bone, with face and hands of porcelain transparency and whiteness, with, moreover, that incomparable complexion only seen in the British Isles, and then only with red gold hair.Her bronze-leather shoes were the hue of some large flies that basked and frisked on the warm wall, only slightly disturbed by the girl's play, to return again and run and preen themselves again, and glitter jewel-like as studs on that sun-baked, lichen-enamelled wall. Her eyes, moreover, were lustrous as the backs of these flies, iridescent with the changing lights of the declining sun, and the changed direction of her glance following the dancing ball of guelder-rose. Her long fingers might have been of china, but that when raised so that the sun struck their backs they were turned to a trans lucent rose. There was no color in her cheek, only the faintest suffusion of pink on the temples below where the hair was rolled back in waves of luminous molten copper dashing against the brick wall.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
