Days Gone By

by James Whitcomb Riley



O the days gone by! O the days gone by!
The apples in the orchard, and the pathway through the rye;
The chirrup of the robin, and the whistle of the quail
As he piped across the meadows sweet as any nightingale;
5 When the bloom was on the clover, and the blue was in the sky,
And my happy heart brimmed over in the days gone by.




In the days gone by, when my naked feet were tripped
By the honey-suckle’s tangles where the water-lilies dipped,
And the ripples of the river lipped the moss along the brink
10 Where the placid-eyed and lazy-footed cattle came to drink,
And the tilting snipe stood fearless of the truant’s wayward cry
And the splashing of the swimmer, in the days gone by.




O the days gone by! O the days gone by!
The music of the laughing lip, the luster of the eye;
15 The childish faith in fairies, and Aladdin’s magic ring—
The simple, soul-reposing, glad belief in everything,—
When life was like a story, holding neither sob nor sigh,
In the golden olden glory of the days gone by.

What is MOST LIKELY the author’s purpose in the passage below?


Our master was a good, kind man. He gave us good food, good lodging, and kind words; he spoke as kindly to us as he did to his little children. We were all fond of him, and my mother loved him very much. When she saw him at the gate she would neigh with joy, and trot up to him. He would pat and stroke her and say, "Well, old Pet, and how is your little Darkie?" I was a dull black, so he called me Darkie; then he would give me a piece of bread, and sometimes he brought a carrot for my mother. All the horses would come to him, but I think we were his favorites.

Fairies are wonderful creatures, filled with light and joy. With little silky wings and anglelic voices. They dance on the wind and fill the skies with laughter. But within them lies a darkness, like all creatures have. And when you hurt them, the darkness takes over. their wings turn black and sharp, their light turns to shadows and their voices turn to screams, They hold to hate and anger, to all the dark things that swim in mens minds, they know joy no more, and they wish to steal yours. So, Please heed my warning. and I will tell you a story, anout a fairy whom was betrayed, a fairy who lost her way, a fairy whos tears stained the world.
Chapter one
Her feet skim the forest floor, her hands brush the trees, her eyes close and her lips sing. slowly she rises, her feet no longer on the ground. Her hands drop to her side but her fingers splay out and dance to her song. She twirls with grace and rises, higher, higher, higher. And following her, little bodies of light, singing a song, only they remember. They swirl around the girl and kiss her cheeks, she smiles and slows to a stop, just hovering there, above the treetops. The fairies whisper in her ears and giggle holding out their little hands, expectant. The girl laughs, a beautiful, hypnotic sound. "Shh, my little friends, here you are. Quiet now. share, would you?" She hands them crumbs of cake, velvet and chocalate and all the flavors of the wonderful substance. The fairies smile and their tinkiling filles her ears. "Yes, i know. you won, you caught up to me - but it IS harder to be faster, seein how i'm bigger than you and all." they circle her head and perch on her shoulders "But soon i'll be faster than all of you. and not even the ancient peter pan could catch me!" she smiles with the thought and slowly drifs down to the forest once more. Waving goodbye to her little friends, she races again though the forest, her feet not touching the ground.

OR....


She shuffled her feet and sighed, making it quite obvious that she was upset. The caseworker didn't respond. Of course. Why would she? She was only uprooting her life again. Home-hopping wasn't fun. . She had been in what? Three homes in the past year? She tried to be good, be the best. But she obviously wasn't good enough. she must have done something wrong. Something must have made them not want her. She just didnt know why she wasn't good enough. She fiddled with her name tag, which read Aria, or it was supposed to, it actually spelled Area. Sighing again she tried for a more vocal approach.
"Ahem." She raised an eyebrow, trying to hide the sour sting in her heart. the caseworker finally looked up "What? You hungry? Thirsty?" She shook her head after a second "Just sit still, we will have you relocated soon enough." Relocated? Was she a dog? "I was just gonna ask why i have to leave another house." The caseworker sighed "Because of...Difficulties." Aria frowned thats all they ever said. "difficluties." She hadn't relized she said it out loud until the caseworked sighed louder than she had before. "Listen, it just didn't work out. You'll be in a new home soon." Aria clenched her jaw "It's not really a home when you only live there for four months." This time the caseworker ignored her. So Aria leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes. wringing her hands until they turned white.
When she opened them again the sky had turned to a pink shade, and she watched for a second as it slowly sank towards the ground. She glanced around and met the eyes of her annoyed caseworker, who obviously wanted to go home. "Get up. You're sleeping here toninght."
"What-?" Aria clenched her hands, digging her fingers into her palm.
"I said you're sleeping here." she jabbed a finger towards a room, the door was slightly ajar and inside was a table a couple chairs and a couch. Aria frowned "On a couch?" the caseworker nodded "I'll be in the next room."
