During a windstorm, Raft and his fellow hands must climb a mast of the three-master to control a rigging gone astray. Once they master that runaway rigging, they pause to watch another vessel in the distance. It's a ship many have seen before. We are introduced to the occupants of this new ship, the Gaston de Paris. The owner is Prince Selm, who loves the finest things in life, yet is drawn to the sea. His guests are an elderly eccentric woman, Madame de Warens, and her adopted daughter, Cleo de Bromsart, an unmarried 20-year-old who looks down on the lower classes. Madame de Warens is upset that Cleo has rejected Selm's proposal of marriage. Cleo, feeling an urge to go on deck, puts on storm gear and begins to climb the steps. Suddenly the engines thrust the ship forward fast, throwing Cleo back. She rushes up on deck to see the three-master hovering near, the name Albatross on its side. Her ship is listing to port. The last thing she remembers is Prince Selm's voice. Many questions remain: the fate of either ship, the safety of Madame Warens, and not the least the future of Cleo and Selm.

They opened schools to educate and churches to care for the recently freed negros pouring into Florida seeking refuge and opportunity. These charming essays, each describing a largely undeveloped rural land, became one of the first travel guides written about Florida and stimulated the first boom of tourism and residential development to that area. Stow describes its waterways, flora and fauna, the generosity of the people, the lush abundance of flowers, farmer's efforts to develop crops, Negro relations with whites, correspondence with famous persons, etc. - Summary by Michele Fry More information: http://librivox.org/palmetto-leaves-by-harriet-beecher-stowe/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)

Geoffrey Fenton, narrator of this story, is one of those unlucky persons who do cross this ship's path, and who even gets captured by it.

Auguste Rodin by Rainer Maria RILKE (1875 - 1926), translated by Jessie LEMONT (1862 - 1947) Genre(s): Art, Design & Architecture, Biography & Autobiography Read by: David Wales in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 00 - Initial Verse and Translators' Preface 00:03:22 - 01 - Part 1 00:29:31 - 02 - Part 2 01:07:40 - 03 - Part 3 Rodin has pronounced Rilke's essay the supreme interpretation of his work. (From the translators' Preface)Auguste Rodin, 1840-1917, was a French sculptor. Although Rodin is generally considered the progenitor of modern sculpture, he did not set out to rebel against the past. He was schooled traditionally, took a craftsman-like approach to his work, and desired academic recognition, although he was never accepted into Paris's foremost school of art. Sculpturally, Rodin possessed a unique ability to model a complex, turbulent, deeply pocketed surface in clay. … Rodin… modeled the human body with realism, and celebrated individual character and physicality. From the unexpected realism of his first major figure… to the unconventional memorials whose commissions he later sought, Rodin's reputation grew, such that he became the preeminent French sculptor of his time. By 1900, he was a world-renowned artist.Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) was a Bohemian-Austrian poet and novelist, 'widely recognized as one of the most lyrically intense German-language poets', writing in both verse and highly lyrical prose. Several critics have described Rilke's work as inherently 'mystical'…. [Rilke's] encounter with modernism was very stimulating: Rilke became deeply involved in the sculpture of Rodin, and then with the work of Paul Cézanne. For a time he acted as Rodin's secretary, also lecturing and writing a long essay on Rodin and his work. Rodin taught him the value of objective observation… - Summary by Wikipedia and Translators' Preface More information: http://librivox.org/auguste-rodin-by-rainer-maria-rilke/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)
