Thanks to Jim Amos for this idea and for giving me a reason to avoid doing client work on a Sunday morning.
One morning the GIANT was lying awake in bed when he heard some lovely music. It sounded so sweet to his ears that he thought it must be the King’s musicians passing by.
It was really only a little linnet singing outside his window, but it was so long since he had heard a bird sing in his garden that it seemed to him to be the most beautiful music in the world.
Then the Hail stopped dancing over his head, and the North Wind ceased roaring, and a delicious perfume came to him through the open casement. “I believe the Spring has come at last,” said the Giant; and he jumped out of bed and looked out.
Note: Passage taken from The Selfish Giant by Oscar Wilde. Well worth picking up on CD if you’re a parent.
heh, yeah, a lot of people complain that html/css doesn’t allow for enough fonts, but at least there are a few different ways to style them. I think something like this would be great for styling fiction or poetry.
