The careful, mature reader, for whom the books are intended, will recognize, and allow for, this fact. ( From Publisher's Note. ) The first volume comprises the annals of the Borgias and the Cenci. The name o...

The Song of Hiawatha, by Henry W. Longfellow. Part IV.

I sing the Song of Hiawatha, Brave of heart and strong of arm. Daughter's son of old Nokomis, Fathered by the harsh West Wind. With its regular, beating rhythm, the Song of Hiawatha has often been parodied, but in truth, it is a powerful, emotional epic; a hero's life, his loves and suffering. The legends and traditions of the North American Indian swirl together through the tale like a mountain stream, tumbling white over the rocks, and caressing the mossy tree roots.

The Annals Vol 1, by Publius Cornelius Tacitus. Part VI.

The Annals was Tacitus' final work, covering the period from the death of Augustus Caesar in the year 14. He wrote at least 16 books, but books 7-10 and parts of books 5, 6, 11 and 16 are missing.
