[Gutenberg 46857] • Sons of the Morning

Excerpt from Sons of the Morning

Leading from dingles on the eastern bank to inter spaces of more open glades beside the great beech-tree, a bridge, fashioned of oak saplings still clothed with bark and ash-coloured lichen, crossed the river; and at this sunlit moment a woman stood upon it and a man shook the frail structure from his standpoint on the bank. His purpose was to alarm the maiden if he could; but she only laughed and twinkled across sure-footed.
