‘A book of absorbing interest. At the first assault she has

carried the difficult citadel of literary achievement and has

planted thereon her distinctive flag.’—_Tablet._

‘Five stories instinct with mystic charm, with grace, beauty

and reverence. They are told by the tall, emaciated, suffering

Hermit, and they seem to bring the three worlds—the Past, the

Present, and the Future—very simply, clearly, naturally and

beautifully close to one another and to us. It is a little book

to stir thought, to give comfort and to win affection.’—_The

Bookman._

HADLAND DAVIS. =5s. net.=

‘Stories which are all poems in prose, beautifully conceived

these ardent studies of exotic romance.’—_Morning Post._
