Oscar Wilde. The Picture of Dorian Gray
Chapter 1
The studio was filled with the rich odour of roses, and when the light summer wind stirred amidst the trees of the garden, there came through the open door the heavy scent of the lilac, or the more delicate perfume of the pink-flowering thorn.

Oscar Wilde. The Nightingale and the Rose (audio with text)
«She said
that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses,» cried the young
Student; «but in all my garden there is no red rose.»
From her nest in the hole-oak tree the
Nightingale heard him, and she looked out through the leaves, and wondered.
«No red rose in all my garden!» he cried, and his
beautiful eyes filled with tears. «Ah, on what little things does happiness
depend! I have read all that the wise men have written, and all the secrets of
philosophy are mine, yet for want of a red rose is my life made wretched.»
Oscar Wilde. The Fisherman and his Soul (audio with text)
Part 1. The Caught Mermaid
Every evening the young Fisherman went out upon the sea, and threw
his nets into the water.
When the wind blew from the land he caught nothing, or but little
at best, for it was a bitter and black-winged wind, and rough waves rose up to
meet it. But when the wind blew to the shore, the fish came in from the deep,
and swam into the meshes of his nets, and he took them to the market-place and
sold them.
