Unabridged Mythology/Literature
1913
Here we have Apollo and Daphne and how one of them refuses the other's advances and becomes a laurel tree. Then we have Pyramus and Thisbe, the love story that inspired Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, or at least the bloody parts of it. And finally: Cephalus and Procris and how the wind is slutty and how misunderstanding can inspire uxoricide.

Unabridged Narrative Poem
1816
In which our hero, the most Romantic of all the Romantic poets, takes on the end of the world.
Written in Geneva, Switzerland in the summer of 1816, when Byron, Mary Shelley, Percy Shelley, and John Polidori spent their evenings telling each other ghost stories. The resulting tales included Shelley's Frankenstein, Polidori's creation of the vampire/vampyre genre (based on a novel fragment of Byron's), and this gloomy, speculative verse.

1891
A Christmas mystery story where even the narrator can't be trusted to stay sober or keep his clothes on.
"There must be something ghostly in the air of Christmas--something about the close, muggy atmosphere that draws up the ghosts, like the dampness of the summer rains brings out the frogs and snails."
