Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Margaret Warrener Merrymount Street drops down to the river, across which the twilight flushes and deepens, broken by gas-lamps and the evening star. Traveled persons who come upon the street for the first time are apt to note its likeness to some foreign one; and even the stay-at-home finds in its narrowness and jutting length a mediæval quaintness and an age antedating America. Abruptly as it hurries from top to foot, it is never unrestful, chiefly because the mellow red houses on either side project irregularly, and caress the eye with a pleasing inconsistency. Midway, a lamp stretches from the wall in artful fashion, breaking monotony at one inevitable point; and when the light flares out, it accents the dusk, arrests the eye, and leads it down to the sunset reflected in the blue-black stream. Just below the lamp, the street extends two arms into elm-shaded squares, both grassy, but socially diverse.
