AN URBAN HARBINGER By E. S. Martin With an Illustration [Frontispiece] by W. Glackens In the sweet country, as the spring's Advance decks out the scenery, And limns with hues the colored things And gives the greens their greenery, I love to watch when I am there Each little step of Nature's care; The wiles with which she goes about To coax the shivering crocus out, And, day by day, succeeding troops Of blooms, to marshal in their groups. — from Scribner's Magazine, Volume 26, August 1899 by Various
This tab, called Hiding in Plain Sight,
shows you passages from notable books where your word is accidentally (or perhaps deliberately?)
spelled out by the first letters of consecutive words.
Why would you care to know such a thing? It's not entirely clear to us, either, but
it's fun to explore! What's the longest hidden word you can find? Where is your name hiding?
