When I had left behind me the Macarena gate and its picturesque suburb and had begun to cross by a {261} narrow footpath that labyrinth of orchards, already I seemed to perceive something strange in my surroundings. — from Romantic legends of Spain by Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer
It has awakened me; My slumbering spirit starts to life anew; That blinding spray-drift, how it falls upon me, As on the weary flower the freshening dew. {202} That rugged rock-fringe that girds in the ocean, And calls the foam from its translucent blue, It seems to pour strange strength into my spirit,— Strength for endurance, strength for conflict too. — from Religious Poems, Selected 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?
