Mon coeur est un luth suspendu: Sitôt qu'on le touche, il résonne. Alfred Noyes understands the heart of the child; as is proved by his Flower of Old Japan, and Forest of Wild Thyme, a kind of singing Alice-in-Wonderland. These are the veritable stuff of dreams wholly apart from the law of causation one vision fading into another. It is our fault, and not that of the poet, that Mr.
Stephen Phillips, William Watson, Alfred Noyes each published his first volume of poems at the age of twenty-two, additional evidence of the old truth that poets are born, not made. Alfred Noyes is a Staffordshire man, though his report of the county differs from that of Arnold Bennett as poetry differs from prose.
Freed from hockey practice, and planning to study her lessons in the evening, her thoughts flew to her canoe that beautiful prize she had won at the summer camp. What could possibly be more delightful than an afternoon spent in paddling and drifting about the lake, with her copy of Alfred Noyes' poems to glance into now and then?
The prosecution called Captain Noyes first, who detailed the circumstances of Wirz's arrest, and denied that he had given any promises of protection. The next witness was Colonel George C. Gibbs, who commanded the troops of the post at Andersonville.
Noyes, said that I was wrong when I suggested in another place that Dickens must have loved Pecksniff. Mr. Noyes thinks it clear that Dickens hated Pecksniff. I cannot believe it. Hatred does indeed linger round its object as much as love; but not in that way. Dickens is always making Pecksniff say things which have a wild poetical truth about them.
As I was sitting with our minister, Governor Noyes of Ohio, there was shown into the room a lady, very stately, and dressed in the height of fashion. It was soon evident that she was on the war-path. She said, ``Mr.
The tarpaulin was now clamped tightly to the hatch-combings, rendering it smooth and firm under foot. Camp-stools for the principals were also there, and two buckets of freshly drawn water in opposite corners. "Mr. Kieran" Noyes had halted again beside the pump-man "what is it the captain's got against you?" "Why" he hesitated "I don't think he's got anything against me exactly."
Indeed she was thrilling with pleasure at the idea of entertaining her cousin in her new home. "I've lots to see to. What a pity Mrs. Blades is ill to-day." "Yes, her usual bronchitis, I suppose. She'll be all right in a day or two." Owen was hunting for a paper as he spoke. "Confound it, where is that manuscript, Toni? You know the one that article on Alfred Noyes." "It's here."
On the last communion day before her execution she was taken into church, and formally excommunicated by Noyes, her minister.... In the course of the next month, in which the Governor left Boston for a short tour of inspection in the Eastern country, fifteen persons six women in one day, and on another eight women and one man were tried, convicted, and sentenced. Eight of them were hanged.
She wanted to get back again to the mood of half an hour ago. She must in some way get Peter Noyes out of her mind. So quite aimlessly they moved down the Avenue Montaigne, and Monte waved his hand at the passing people. "Now," he announced, "you are none of anybody's business." "Is that true, Monte?" Marjory asked eagerly. "True as preaching." "And no one has any right to scold me?"
