Excerpt from Denys the DreamerDenys fitzmaurice of Murrough sat on the edge of the bog looking away to where the river ran through purple and gold of heather and ragwort, widening white under the rays of light that Shot down from behind an immense cloud. It was a scene very well worth looking upon. Far away the blue line of mountains showed dimly fair, with a promise of fine weather. There was a great sky stretching over the wide land, over-arching it, with a sense of immensity and light. At the boy's feet the gray-green of the rushes was relieved by the pale, aromatic blobs of meadow-sweet and the white of the bog-cotton that stirred in the faint, light breeze.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
