Roofless: A Romance In Rhyme is a book written by Isaac L. Vansant and published in 1885. It is a romantic poem that tells the story of two lovers, a man and a woman, who are separated by fate and circumstance. The poem is written in rhyming couplets and is divided into four parts. In the first part, the reader is introduced to the two lovers, who are deeply in love but unable to be together due to their different social statuses. The woman is from a wealthy family while the man is poor and homeless. In the second part, the man sets out on a journey to make a better life for himself so that he can be with his beloved. He faces many challenges and obstacles along the way but never loses hope. In the third part, the man finally achieves success and returns to his beloved, but he finds that she has been forced into a loveless marriage by her family. He is heartbroken but remains devoted to her. In the fourth and final part, the lovers are reunited in death, as they are buried side by side in a cemetery. The poem ends with a message of hope and the idea that true love can conquer all obstacles, even death itself. Overall, Roofless: A Romance In Rhyme is a beautiful and poignant love story that explores themes of class, perseverance, and the power of love.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
