Madelon By Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman Excerpt bove her lace tucker, like a bird's, stood in the midst of the men, and sang and sang, and her wonderful soprano flowed through the harmony like a river of honey; and yet now and then it came with a sudden fierce impetus, as if she would force some enemy to bay with music. Madelon was slender, but full of curves which were like the soft breast of a bird before an enemy.

He had not been to see her for three weeks, and her heart was breaking as she sang. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.
