| Publisher Description: 1914. Vale is one of the three-volumes in Irish novelist, playwright, poet and critic George Moore's famous three-volume semi autobiographical work, Hail and Farewell, a highly entertaining account of his experiences in Ireland. The three volumes are named: Ave, Salve and Vale. Vale begins: It was about the time of the publication of my letter to the Irish Times, mentioned in the last pages of Salve, that I received from the French Consul an invitation to dinner to meet the Secretary of the Consulate, M. Orange, a young man, a poet, au moins il a publie un volume de vers chez Lemerre. The Meaulles, Monsieur et Madame, are among my pleasantest memories of Dublin, and on the night in question, when it was time to bid our host and hostess goodnight, I suggested to Orange that we should walk back to Dublin together, thinking that perhaps he might like to talk French poetry with me.
