Pagina 47 - ... mist-wreath and whirlwind, the roar of waterfalls, the rush of swollen streams, the crash of loosened landslips, which he may seem hardly to notice, do not pass without bringing, unconsciously perhaps, to his imagination their ministry of terror. Hence the playful mirthfulness and light-hearted ease of the Celtic temperament have in his case been curdled into a stubbornness which may be stolid obstinacy or undaunted perseverance, according to the circumstances which develop it.

Pagina 47 - Placed in a glen, separated from his neighbours in the next glens by high ranges of rugged hills, he finds a soil scant and stony, a climate wet, cold, and uncertain.

Pagina 134 - The first edition of this list was published in the Wisconsin Library Bulletin for January-February, 1912.
