Wylder's Hand is a novel from Gothic and mystery writer Sheridan Le Fanu. "e;There was a little fair-haired child playing on the ground before the steps as I whirled by. The old rector had long passed away; the shorts, gaiters, and smile -- a phantom; and nature, who had gathered in the past, was providing for the future. The pretty mill-road, running up through Redman's Dell, dank and dark with tall romantic trees, was left behind in another moment; and we were now traversing the homely and antique street of the little town, with its queer shops and solid steep-roofed residences.

A retrospect of a score of years or so, at three-and-thirty, is a much vaster affair than a much longer one at fifty. The whole thing seemed like yesterday; and as I write, I open my eyes and start and cry, "e;can it be twenty, five-and-twenty, aye, by Jove! five-and-thirty, years since then?"e; How my days have flown! And I think when another such yesterday shall have arrived, where shall I be?"e;
