It builds a garment cut to the pattern of an Idea, and trusts that Nature will model a material shape to fit it. There is a prophecy in every seam, and its pockets are full of inspiration. Now hear the verses. O for one hour of youthful joy! Give back my twentieth spring! I'd rather laugh a bright-haired boy Than reign a gray-beard king! Off with the wrinkled spoils of age!
For, ever between me and the tempting bait came the image of a pale, bright-haired girl, whose blue eyes looked mournfully into mine and whispered, ’Do not leave me.’ But at last I yielded, and now, Fanny, will you forgive me? It cost me more anguish to give you up than I hope you will ever feel.
Have you heard bad news?" her tears flowed at once, and leaning her head upon his shoulder, she answered, "Nina is dying dear little, bright-haired Nina. She has sent for me. She wants me to come so much. May I, Richard? May I go to Nina?" "Read me the letter," was Richard's reply, his voice unusually low and sad. Edith could not read the whole.
Not Age but Youth of centuries smiles from gray walls and aery pinnacles upon the joyous children of To-day. Youth, in a bright-haired, black-winged-butterfly swarm, streams out of every dark doorway, from the austere shade of study, to disport itself, two by two, or in larger eddying groups, upon the worn gravel, even venturously flits across the sacred green of the turf.

But it was all unavailing.
From the boy his gaze wandered over the room. He knew it well. Not so many years ago he had visited in this very room another bright-haired lad, whose pen had also stuck in the paper. The Chancellor looked up at the crossed swords, and something like a mist came into his keen old eyes. He caught Miss Braithwaite's glance, and he knew what was in her mind.
Then William Wylder shut the hall-door, and turned about. Little Fairy's drum was hanging from a peg on the hat-stand the drum that was to sound no more in the garden, or up and down the hall, with the bright-haired little drummer's song.
She had forgotten herself now, forgotten that this was only a sort of play forgotten her part as a leading lady, bare-armed and bright-haired, whose role it was to charm this handsome man, in the soft lamplight.
No, he will not give account of his motives to anyone; nor confess on his knees, like a penitent sinner; nor will he take the pose of a hero. Let them think what they like. How can that concern him? Nothing concerns him. By chance he raised his eyes and saw, hanging in the air, the face of a maiden, oval, rosy, and bright-haired which smiled at him lovingly, and made a clear motion, inviting him.
