OK this will probably be a terrible idea, but let's try a "guess the book from the last sentence" game! Wahey!

Rules: it has to be an extremely well known classic book that everyone should have read, or at least heard of and know about. Not "Angling for beginners". No Googling!

Here we go:


"I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."

An easy but lovely one

"Hazel followed; and together they slipped away, running easily down through the wood, where the first primroses were beginning to bloom"

OK, this one's probably way too easy:

OK, this is from a book that's extremely well-known, or at least it was in my day:

John Thomas says good-night to Lady Jane, a little droopingly but with a hopeful heart.
