	the	south	side	of	the	Thames,	where	they	are	roughly
	sorted.	What	is	valuable	as	manure	is	boated	away	to|
	the	country.	All	else,	after	the	salable	refuse	is	culled!
	out,	is	shot	into	a	"	destructor,"	or	cremator.	This	ap-|
	paratus	works	day	and	night	throughout	the	year,	save
	for	from	fifteen	to	twenty	days,	when	it	is	stopped	for	re-
	pairs	and	cleaning.	By	the	last	report,	it	destroyed	in
	the	year	23,117	loads	(66	loads	per	day),	leaving	about	22j
	per	cent,	of	"	ashes	and	clinkers,	more	or	less	hard,	but
	valueless,	and	for	the	removal	of	which	the	commission
	had	to	pay."
	As	is	the	case	in	so	many	other	places,	the	question	of
	final	disposition	is	engaging	the	very	serious	attention	of
	the	authorities.	In	competition	with	concentrated	fer-
	tilizers,	street	manure	will	not	bear	distant	transporta-
	tion.	As	populations	grow	larger	the	increasing	output
	adds	to	the	difficulty,	and	there	seems	to	be	no	escape
	from	the	requirement	for	the	conversion	of	the	material
	into	an	inoffensive	product,	by	an	inoffensive	process,
	within	a	practicable	distance	of	the	point	of	production.
	English	opinion	seems	to	have	become	fixed	on	crema-
	tion	as	the	only	adequate	means	of	relief.	At	the	same
	time,	it	is	not	yet	shown	that	cremation	can	be	carried
	on	without	giving	rise	to	nuisance,	or	at	least	to	annoy-
	ance.	Mr.	Codrington,	engineering	inspector	of	the
	Local	Government	Board,	in	his	report	of	1888	as	to
	twenty	depots	at	which	destructors	had	been	erected,
	said,	"Experience	has	shown	that	town	refuse	can	be
	effectually	burned	in	destructors	and	other	furnaces
	without	causing	nuisance	or	offense	at	or	about	the
	works	themselves";	but	he	adds	that	complaints	are	re-
	ceived	of	"fine	dust	and	sometimes	of	charred	paper
	proceeding	from	the	chimney	and	falling	at	some	little


PARADISE	REGAINED.
	How	he,	surnamed	of	Africa,	dismiss'd
	In	his	prime	youth	the	fair	Iberian	maid.
	For	Solomon,	he	lived	at	ease,	and	full
	Of	honour,	wealth,	high	fare,	aimed	not	beyond
	Higher	design	than	to	enjoy	his	state	;
	Thence	to	the	bait	of	women	lay	exposed	:
	But	he,	whom	we	attempt,	is	wiser	far
	Than	Solomon,	of	more	exalted	mind,
	Made	and	set	wholly	on	the	accomplishment
	Of	greatest	things	;	what	woman	will	you	find,
	Though	of	this	age	the	wonder	and	the	fame,
	On	whom	his	leisure	will	vouchsafe	an	eye
	Of	fond	desire	?	Or	should	she,	confident,
	As	sitting	queen	adored	on	beauty's	throne,
	Descend	with	all	her	winning	charms	begirt
	To	enamour,	as	the	zone	of	Venus	once
	Wrought	that	effect	on	Jove,	so	fables	tell	;
	How	would	one	look	from	his	majestic	brow,
	Seated	as	on	the	top	of	virtue's	hill,
	Discountenance	her	despised,	and	put	to	rout
	All	her	array	;	her	female	pride	deject,
	Or	turn	to	reverent	awe	?	for	beauty	stands
	In	the	admiration	only	of	weak	minds
	Led	captive.	Cease	to	admire,	and	all	her	plutneg
	Fall	flat,	and	shrink	into	a	trivial	toy,
	At	every	sudden	slighting	quite	abash'd.
	Therefore	with	manlier	objects	we	must	try
	His	constancy,	with	such	as	have	more	show
	Of	worth,	of	honour,	glory,	and	popular	praise	;
	Rocks	whereon	greatest	men	have	oftest	wreck'	d	;
	Or	that	which	only	seems	to	satisfy
	Lawful	desires	of	nature,	not	beyond	;
	And	now	I	know	he	hungers	where	no	food
	Is	to	be	found,	in	the	wide	wilderness	:
	The	rest	commit	to	me	;	I	shall	let	pass
	No	advantage,	and	his	strength	as	oft	essay.	'
	He	ceased,	and	heard	their	grant	in	loud	acclaim	;
	Then	forthwith	to	him	takes	a	chosen	band
	Of	spirits,	likest	to	himself	in	guile,
	To	be	at	hand,	and	at	his	beck	appear,
	If	cause	were	to	unfold	some	active	scene
	Of	various	persons,	each	to	know	his	part	;
	Then	to	the	desert	takes	with	these	his	flight	;
	Where	still,	from	shade	to	shade,	the	Son	of	God,
	After	forty	days'	fasting	had	remain'd,
	Now	hungering	first,	and	to	himself	thus	said	:
	Where	will	this	end?	four	times	ten	days	I've	pass'd
	Wandering	this	woody	maze,	and	human	food
	Nor	tasted,	nor	had	appetite	:	that	fast
	To	virtue	I	impute	not,	or	count	part
	Of	what	I	suffer	here.	If	nature	need	not,

	Thanks,	and	another	chevron	for	my	shield,
	For	slaying	three	she-scorpions,	but	you	first	!
	BEATRICE.
	Stand	back	there,	if	you	love	me,	or	have	loved	!
	As	LARA	advances,	BEATRICE	retreats	to	the	table
	and	rings	a	small	hand-bell.	MIRIAM,	in	the	dress
	of	a	page,	enters	from	behind	the	screen,	and	steps
	between	them.
	MIRIAM.
	What	would	my	master,	Signor	Juan,	say
	LARA.	[Starting	back.]
	The	Page?	now,	curse	him!	What?	no!	Mi-
	riam?
	Hold	!	't	was	at	twilight,	in	the	villa-garden,
	At	dusk,	too,	on	the	road	to	Mantua	:
	But	here	the	light	falls	on	you,	man	or	maid	!
	Stop	now,	my	brain's	bewildered.	Stand	you
	there,
	And	let	me	touch	you	with	incredulous	hands	!
	Wait	till	I	come,	nor	vanish	like	a	ghost.


THE	GREAT	FAIR	AT	SHU	SHAN.	43
	Shall	be	cut	from	thy	mouth,	and	thy	cold	eyes
	That	dared	look	unabashed	into	my	face
	While	thou	didst	speak	thy	treason,	shall	be	made
	That	they	may	never	so	again	offend."
	So	he	who	knew	not	fear,	went	forth	in	silence
	To	duty,	and	to	doom,	each	worse	than	death.

	sider	intently	how	much	it	might	in	such	a	case
	amount	to.	But	"	Here	he	comes,"	was	what	she
	presently	replied.
	Paul	Beever	was	in	sight,	so	freshly	dressed
	that	even	at	a	distance	his	estimate	of	the	re
	quirements	of	the	occasion	was	visible	from	his
	necktie	to	his	boots.	Adorned	as	it	unmis
	takably	had	never	been,	his	great	featureless
	person	moved	solemnly	over	the	lawn.
	"	Take	him,	then	take	him	!	"	said	Tony
	Bream.
	Jean,	intensely	serious,	but	with	agitation	held
	at	bay,	gave	him	one	more	look,	a	look	so	in
	finitely	pacific	that	as,	at	Paul's	nearer	approach,
	he	turned	away	from	her,	he	had	the	sense	of
	going	off	with	a	sign	of	her	acceptance	of	his
	solution.	The	light	in	her	face	was	the	light	of
	the	compassion	that	had	come	out	to	him,	and
	what	was	that	compassion	but	the	gage	of	a	relief,
	of	a	promise?	It	made	him	walk	down	to	the
	river	with	a	step	quickened	to	exhilaration	;	all
	the	more	that	as	the	girl's	eyes	followed	him
	he	couldn't	see	in	them	the	tragic	intelligence
	he	had	kindled,	her	perception	from	the	very
	rhythm	of	the	easy	gait	she	had	watched	so	often
	that	he	really	thought	such	a	virtual	confession

	As	have	been	all	the	members	of	thy	house	;
	And	now	I	may	proceed	to	answer	further
	Thy	double	query.	Well	enough	thou	knowest
	Thou	hadst	no	cousin	in	thy	early	home,
	Of	thy	own	sex,	as	also	I	well	know,
	Hence	seems	the	contradiction	of	my	story
	In	my	own	person	which	thou	spakest	of,
	For	thou	rememberest	little	Aldiphernes,
	Rough	playmate	that	he	was,	and	mayhap	prone
	At	times	to	little	acts	of	selfishness,
	And	boisterous	withal	;	and	he	still	lives,
	And	he	hath	heard	from	this	same	little	slave,
	The	story	that	hath	brought	me	to	this	place,
	Sought	out	by	his	untiring	love	and	zeal,
	To	do	thee	helpful	service.	Raised	a	soldier,
	He	hath	assumed	the	calling	of	a	merchant,
	Coming	ostensibly	from	Cappadocia,
	With	wares	and	peltries	from	Mount	Amanos,
	To	trade	in	Shushan.	Now,	his	merchandise
	He	hath	disposed	of,	and	his	caravan
	Being	reladen	for	his	quick	return,
	He	fain	would	have	thee	go	with	him	at	once
	Back	to	thy	own	loved	Lydia,	where	a	home
	Peaceful	and	quiet	hath	been	made	for	thee
	Beyond	intrusion	and	discovery
	Beyond	the	malice	of	the	wrathful	King

	Not	wandering	poor,	but	trusting	all	his	wealth
	With	God,	who	call'd	him,	in	a	land	unknown.
	Canaan	he	now	attains,	I	see	his	tents
	Pitch'd	about	Sechem,	and	the	neighbouring	plain
	Of	Moreh	;	there	by	promise	he	receives
	Gift	to	his	progeny	of	all	that	land	;
	From	Hamath	northward	to	the	desert	south,
	Things	by	their	names	I	call,	though	yet	unnamed,
	From	Hermon	east	to	the	great	western	sea,
	Mount	Hermon,	yonder	sea,	each	place	behold
	In	prospect,	as	I	point	them	;	on	the	shore

	Shall	in	his	seed	be	blessed	;	by	that	seed
	Is	meant	thy	great	Deliverer,	who	shall	bruise

	The	grandchild,	with	twelve	sons	increased,	departs
	From	Canaan,	to	a	land	hereafter	call'd
	Egypt,	divided	by	the	river	Nile	;
	See	where	it	flows,	disgorging	at	seven	mouths
	Into	the	sea.	To	sojourn	in	that	land
	He	comes,	invited	by	a	younger	son

	Raise	him	to	be	the	second	in	that	realm
	Of	Pharaoh	:	there	he	dies,	and	leaves	his	race
	Growing	into	a	nation,	and,	now	grown
	Suspected	to	a	sequent	king,	who	seeks
	To	stop	their	overgrowth,	as	inmate	guests
	Too	numerous	;	whence	of	guests	he	makes	them	slaves
	Inhospitably,	and	kills	their	infant	males	:
	Till	by	two	brethren,	those	two	brethren	call

160	THE	DESTRUCTION	OF	GOTHAM.
	half	an	hour	or	so,	as	if	to	collect	one	s	self.	The	old
	biblical	and	human	expression	of	a	desire	to	"	go	up
	into	the	mountains	to	pray"	had	something	of	this	feel
	ing	which	overtakes	us	at	such	times	as	this.
	It	is	an	irresistible	desire	to	get	away	from	others
	and	get	back	to	your	own	identity,	your	own	indi
	viduality.
	The	strong	English	expression	of	"	pulling	one	s	self
	together"	means	a	great	deal,	but	not	quite	what	is.
	meant	here	or	in	the	Bible.
	The	lights	burned	not	so	brilliantly	now	that	the
	guests	were	gone	;	but	still	there	was	light	enough	for
	the	one	lone	man	light	enough	to	drink	by.	A	man
	does	not	require	much	light	when	he	is	weary	and	sleepy
	and	sad.
	He	knew	his	valet	would	come	soon	and	take	him.	to
	bed.	Maybe	some	one	of	the	family	would	come	to
	him	there	and	talk	with	him	for	a	little	time	of	the
	splendid	scenes,	of	the	most	brilliant	ball	that	the	world
	had	ever	witnessed.
	No	one	came.	His	head	settled	a	little	on	his	breast.
	His	two	heavy	red	hands	still	rested	on	the	great	soft
	arms	of	the	easy-chair,	and	the	man	was	very	comfortable.
	But	only	for	a	second.	He	seemed	to	feel	rather	than
	see	that	some	one	beside	himself	was	sitting	at	that	table.
	He	filled	his	glass	again.
	The	man	with	so	many	millions	slowly	lifted	his	head,
	slowly	lifted	his	glass,	slowly	opened	his	eyes	widely,
	steadily,	and	looked	dimly	across	the	table	where	had	sat
	the	imaginary	guest	an	hour	before.
	He	had	not	forgotten	on	what	he	had	tried	to	place
	his	heavy	right	hand	only	an	hour	before.
	The	guest	had	come	back,	and	was	there	distinctly
	now.	The	millionaire	did	not	cry	out	or	lift	a	hand.


A	Yankee	in	King	Arthur	s	Court	17
	"	I	find	I	can	t	go	on;	but	come	with	me,	I	ve	got
	it	all	written	out,	and	you	can	read	it	if	you	like."
	In	his	chamber,	he	said:	"	First,	I	kept	a	journal;
	then	by	and	by,	after	years,	I	took	the	journal	and
	turned	it	into	a	book.	How	long	ago	that	was!"
	He	handed	me	his	manuscript,	and	pointed	out	the
	place	where	I	should	begin	:
	"	Begin	here	I	ve	already	told	you	what	goes	be
	fore."	He	was	steeped	in	drowsiness	by	this	time.
	As	I	went	out	at	his	door	I	heard	him	murmur	sleep
	ily:	"	Give	you	good	den,	fair	sir."
	I	sat	down	by	my	fire	and	examined	my	treasure.
	The	first	part	of	it	the	great	bulk	of	it	was	parch
	ment,	and	yellow	with	age.	I	scanned	a	leaf	particu
	larly	and	saw	that	it	was	a	palimpsest.	Under	the	old
	dim	writing	of	the	Yankee	historian	appeared	traces	of
	a	penmanship	which	was	older	and	dimmer	still
	Latin	words	and	sentences:	fragments	from	old	monk
	ish	legends,	evidently.	I	turned	to	the	place	indicated
	by	my	stranger	and	began	to	read	as	follows	:

	Though	but	a	private	turf,	it	can	do	more
	To	keep	thy	name	and	memory	in	store

	In	the	dumb	piles	of	chested	brass,	and	stones.
	Th'art	rich	in	thy	own	fame,	and	needest	not
	These	marble-frailties,	nor	the	gilded	blot
	Of	posthume	honours	;	there	is	not	one	sand
	Sleeps	o'er	thy	grave,	but	can	outbid	that	hand
	And	pencil	too,	so	that	of	force	we	must
	Confess	their	heaps	show	lesser	than	thy	dust.
	And	blessed	soul	!	though	this	my	sorrow	can
	Add	nought	to	thy	perfections,	yet	as	man
	Subject	to	envy,	and	the	common	fate,
	It	may	redeem	thee	to	a	fairer	date.
	As	some	blind	dial,	when	the	day	is	done,
	Can	tell	us	at	midnight	there	was	a	sun,
	So	these	perhaps,	though	much	beneath	thy	fame,
	May	keep	some	weak	remembrance	of	thy	name,
	And	to	the	faith	of	better	times	commend
	Thy	loyal	upright	life,	and	gallant	end.

	This	is	the	sum	of	their	knowledge.	Truly	thy	Lord	best
	knoweth	him	who	erreth	from	his	way,	and	He	best	knoweth
	him	who	hath	received	guidance.
	And	whatever	is	in	the	Heavens	and	in	the	Earth	is	God	s,
	that	he	may	reward	those	who	do	evil	according	to	their	deeds	:
	and	those	who	do	good	will	He	reward	with	good	things.
	To	those	who	avoid	great	crimes	and	scandals	but	commit
	only	lighter	faults,	verily,	thy	Lord	will	be	diffuse	of	mercy.
	He	well	knew	you	when	he	produced	you	out	of	the	earth,
	and	when	ye	were	embryos	in	your	mother	s	womb.	Assert

	Hast	thou	considered	him	who	turned	his	back	?
	Who	giveth	little	and	is	covetous?
	Is	it	that	he	hath	the	knowledge	and	vision	of	the	secret
	things	?
	Hath	he	not	been	told	of	what	is	in	the	pages	of	Moses	?
	And	of	Abraham	faithful	to	his	pledge	?
	That	no	burdened	soul	shall	bear	the	burdens	of	another,
	40	And	that	nothing	shall	be	reckoned	to	a	man	but	that	for
	which	he	hath	made	efforts	:
	And	that	his	efforts	shall	at	last	be	seen	in	their	true	light	:
	That	then	he	shall	be	recompensed	with	a	most	exact
	recompense,
	And	that	unto	thy	Lord	is	the	term	of	all	things,
	And	that	it	is	He	who	causeth	to	laugh	and	to	weep,
	And	that	He	causeth	to	die	and	maketh	alive,
	And	that	He	hath	created	the	sexes,	male	and	female,
	From	the	diffused	germs	of	life,	1
	And	that	with	Him	is	the	second	creation,
	And	that	He	enricheth	and	causeth	to	possess,
	50	And	that	He	is	the	Lord	of	Sirius,	2
	And	that	it	was	He	who	destroyed	the	ancient	Adites,
	And	the	people	of	Themoud	and	left	not	one	survivor,
	And	before	them	the	people	of	Noah	who	were	most	wicked
	and	most	perverse.
	And	it	was	He	who	destroyed	the	cities	that	were	over
	thrown.

Domestic	Vicissitudes	291
	V.	DOMESTIC	VICISSITUDES,	1857-1859
	Palmerston,	defeated	on	a	vote	of	censure	on	his	Chinese
	policy,	in	March	1857,	appealed	to	the	country,	and	was	returned
	to	power	with	a	triumphant	majority	by	the	electors	1857<	Tne
	in	April.	The	outbreak	of	the	sepoy	mutiny	Divorce	Act.
	immediately	following	absorbed	public	attention	;	and	while
	measures	were	taken	for	dealing	with	the	Chinese	question,	the
	only	piece	of	domestic	legislation	in	the	first	session	of	the	new
	parliament	was	an	Act	enabling	ordinary	citizens	to	obtain
	divorce	by	process	of	law,	instead	of	being	required,	as	hitherto,
	to	obtain	a	special	Act	of	parliament	which	had	made	any
	release	from	the	marriage	bond	a	privilege	accorded	only	to
	the	wealthy.	By	the	new	law,	the	husband	could	divorce
	his	wife	on	the	plea	of	unfaithfulness	alone,	while	the	wife	could
	divorce	her	husband	only	by	proving	cruelty	or	desertion	as	well.
	The	distinction,	it	may	be	remarked,	was	not	one	of	morals,
	since	the	law	does	not	concern	itself	with	the	censorship	of	morals	;
	the	point	was	that	unfaithfulness	in	the	wife	was	sufficient	by
	itself,	because	the	unfaithful	wife	can	impose	upon	her	husband
	children	who	are	not	his	offspring,	whereas	the	unfaithful	husband
	cannot	palm	off	upon	his	wife	the	children	of	another	woman.
	The	Opposition,	however,	was	mainly	concerned	with	the	objec-
	tion	to	permitting	remarriage	of	the	divorced	parties,	which	in
	the	view	of	the	majority	of	the	Anglican	clergy	is	contrary	to
	the	teaching	of	the	Church.	Nevertheless	the	bill	was	carried
	by	decisive	majorities.
	Later	in	the	year,	after	parliament	had	risen,	there	was	a
	serious	financial	crisis	which	the	government	met	A	financial
	successfully	by	suspending	the	Bank	Charter	Act,	crisis,
	and	allowing	the	bank	to	issue	notes	to	the	value	of	2,000,000
	above	the	legal	limit.
	When	parliament	met	in	February,	it	seemed	manifest	that
	the	ministry	was	established	in	power	for	an	in-	1858	Fallof
	definite	period.	Palmerston	introduced	an	India	the	ministry,

74	THE	LAND	OF	WONDERS
	heart	of	the	most	cruel.	Thus	Jack	lay	when	his
	friend	sank	into	unconsciousness.
	The	boy	noticed	it,	and	was	somewhat	sur-
	prised,	but	he	was	too	wearied	to	think	much
	about	it,	and	it	was	not	long	before	he	followed
	him.
	At	this	time	it	was	night	above,	and	the	earth
	was	shrouded	in	a	darkness	scarcely	less	than	that
	which	filled	the	cavern.	As	Jack	Winch	was	the
	last	to	go	to	sleep	he	was	the	first	to	wake	up.
	When	he	opened	his	eyes,	the	first	thing	he	no-
	ticed	was	that	his	uncle	was	still	wrapped	in	slum-
	ber,	and	the	fire	had	sunk	very	low.
	He	sprang	up	and	threw	some	coal	on	the	em-
	bers.
	The	crackling	of	the	pieces	and	the	snapping	of
	the	small	particles	caused	Alfredo	to	awaken.
	When	he	saw	what	the	boy	was	at	he	was
	alarmed.
	"	Haven't	you	been	asleep,	Jack	?	"	he	inquired.
	"	Oh,	yes,	I	slept	all	I	wanted	to,	and	have	been
	awake	only	a	few	minutes."
	"	Have	you	had	any	more	dreams	?	"	continued
	the	man,	with	a	laugh.


148	MUCH	ADO	ABOUT	PETER
	In	this	sympathetic	atmosphere	Vittorio	ex
	panded	like	a	flower	in	the	sunlight.	He	had
	suddenly	become	a	social	lion.	His	funny
	sayings	were	passed	from	mouth	to	mouth,
	and	everybody	on	the	place	commenced	con
	versing	in	Italian-English.
	"Eh,	Petal"	Billy	hailed	him	one	afternoon,
	"Mees	Effel,	she	want-a	go	ride.	She	want-a
	you	go	too.	I	saddle	dose	horsa	?"
	"Aw,	let	up!"	Peter	growled.	"We	hears
	enough	Dago	talk	without	them	as	knows
	decent	English	havin	to	make	fools	o	their-
	selves."
	While	Peter	s	private	troubles	were	thus
	heavy	upon	him,	his	official	responsibility	in
	creased.	Mr.	Carter	was	called	away	on	busi
	ness.	On	the	morning	of	the	departure,	as
	they	were	starting	for	the	station,	Miss	Ethel
	ran	after	them	with	a	forgotten	umbrella.
	"Take	care	of	yourself,	dad!"	She	kissed	him
	good-bye,	and	stood	on	the	veranda	waving	her
	handkerchief	until	the	carriage	was	out	of	sight.

	Lord	we	own	the	sentence	just;
	Head	and	tongue,	and	hand	and	heart,
	All	in	guilt	have	borne	their	part;
	Righteous	is	the	common	doom,
	All	must	moulder	in	the	tomb.
	Like	the	seed	in	spring-time	sown,
	Like	the	leaves	in	autumn	strown,
	Low	these	goodly	frames	must	lie,
	All	our	pomp	and	glory	die;
	Soon	the	spoiler	seeks	his	prey,
	Soon	he	bears	us	all	away.
	Yet	the	seed,	upraised	again,
	Clothes	with	green	the	smiling	plain;
	Onward	as	the	seasons	move,
	Leaves	and	blossoms	deck	the	grove;
	And	shall	we	forgotten	lie,
	Lost	forever,	when	we	die	?
	Lord,	from	Nature	s	gloomy	night
	Turn	we	to	the	Gospel	s	light;
	Thou	didst	triumph	o	er	the	grave,
	Thou	wilt	all	Thy	people	save;
	Ransomed	by	Thy	blood,	the	just
	Rise	immortal	from	the	dust.

	But	at	the	end	of	half	an	hour's	argument	the	con
	versation	had	been	turned	upon	a	different	subject.
	The	two	were	considering	the	respective	merits	of
	pale	blue	and	pink	wall	paper	with	which	the	old
	colonial	mansion	of	the	Atwoods	in	Dalesburg	was	to
	be	decorated	after	the	wedding.
	On	the	next	morning	Johnny	confessed	to	Mr.
	Hemstetter.	The	shoe	merchant	put	on	his	specta
	cles,	and	said	through	them	:	"	You	strike	me	as	be
	ing	a	most	extraordinary	young	scamp.	If	I	had	not
	managed	this	enterprise	with	good	business	judgment
	my	entire	stock	of	goods	might	have	been	a	complete
	loss.	Now,	how	do	you	propose	to	dispose	of	the
	rest	of	it?"
	When	the	second	invoice	of	cockleburrs	arrived
	Johnny	loaded	them	and	the	remainder	of	the	shoes
	into	a	schooner,	and	sailed	down	the	coast	to	Alazan.
	There,	in	the	same	dark	and	diabolical	manner,	he
	repeated	his	success:	and	came	back	with	a	bag	of
	money	and	not	so	much	as	a	shoestring.
	And	then	he	besought	his	great	Uncle	of	the	waving
	goatee	and	starred	vest	to	accept	his	resignation,	for
	the	lotus	no	longer	lured	him.	He	hankered	for	the
	spinach	and	cress	of	Dalesburg.
	The	services	of	Mr.	William	Terence	Keogh	as
	acting	consul,	pro	tern.,	were	suggested	and	accepted,

	Bonito	173	pots	were	found	in	a	single	room,	nearly	all
	of	them	being	cylindrical	in	shape.
	The	forms	of	the	pots	are	of	interest.	Those	of	the
	black	ware	are	usually	bowl-shaped	or	cylindrical	in
	Tularosa	Pottery.

	more	deliberately,	something	familiar	in	the	lan
	guage	struck	her	suddenly,	and	after	pondering	a	mo
	ment,	she	turned	over	the	leaves	of	a	new	book	which
	was	among	the	literary	stores	of	our	travelling-party,
	and	soon	came	to	the	exact	counterpart	of	passage
	after	passage,	as	recorded	in	the	letter	of	the	gallant
	Pole!
	The	volume	was,	I	think,	"	Hannah	More	s	Me
	moirs,"	which	had	probably	been	recommended	to
	the	young	student	of	our	language	by	his	teacher,	or
	some	friend,	as	containing	good	specimens	of	the

	In	saying	this,	Alfredo	Alfiero	named	the
	greatest	dread	which	he	had	experienced	since	the
	descent	into	the	cavern	commenced.
	It	was	the	dwelling	in	utter	darkness	until	the
	system	should	succumb	and	should	die	the	death
	of	agony	that	always	follows	such	unnatural	ex-
	istence.

	of	the	wonderful	sunlight	of	Heaven	is	fitted	to
	appreciate	its	glory.

	years	with	occasional	glimpses	of	the	golden	rays
	which	straggled	into	his	cell	who	can	realize	what
	he	has	lost.	Alfredo	believed	that	before	starva-
	tion	should	come,	his	brain	would	yield	and	he
	would	become	a	raving	lunatic.
	And	that	end	was	what	he	dreaded	more	than
	all	others.
	Jack	was	as	eager	as	he	to	find	out	all	he	could
	about	the	great,	gloomy	place	in	which	he	ex-

	all	his	life.

	166.	Beam	propped	in	the	Middle.	When	a	beam	is	acted	on	by
	several	loads	the	deflection	and	slope	due	to	the	whole	is	the	sum	of
	those	due	to	each	load	taken	separately.	An	important	example	is
	Case	III.	Beam	supported	at	the	ends	and	propped	in	the	middle,
	uniformly	loaded.	(Fig.	129.)
	Here	the	deflection	of	the	beam	is	the	difference	between	the
	downward	deflection	due	to	the	uniform	load	and	the	upward	deflec-
	tion	due	to	the	thrust	Q	of	the	prop.	Hence	we	write	down	at	once

	prop	when	its	length	is	given,	and	conversely.
	First	suppose	the	centre	of	the	beam	propped	at	the	same	level	as
	the	supports,	then	8	=	0,	and
	so	that	the	prop	in	this	case	carries	five-eighths	of	the	weight	of	the
	beam,	the	supports	C\	D	only	carrying	three-eighths.	Each	support-
	ing	force	is	-fowl,	I	being	as	before	the	whole	length	of	the	beam	;
	hence	the	bending	moment	at	a	point	distant	x	from	C	is	given	by
	the	formula
	M	=	f\wh	-	%wx	2	\wx(y,	-	x),

	Attus	Primus.	Sccena	Prima.
	Enter	the	Duke	of	Orleance,	and	the	Earl	of	Amiens,
	at	several	doors.
	Amiens.
	MOrrow,	my	Lord	of	Orleans.
	Or/.	You	salute	me	like	a	stranger	;	brother	Orleance
	were	to	me	a	Title	more	belonging,	whom	you	call	the	Husband
	of	your	Sister.
	Ami.	Would	the	circumstances	of	your	brotherhood	had
	never	offer'd	cause	to	make	our	conversation	less	familiar	:	I
	meet	you	like	a	hindrance	in	your	way	:	your	great	Law
	suit	is	now	upon	the	tongue,	and	ready	for	a	judgement.
	Or/.	Came	you	from	the	Hall	now	?
	Ami.	Without	stay	;	the	Court	is	full,	and	such	a	press
	of	people	does	attend	the	issue,	as	if	some	great	man	were
	brought	to	his	arraignment.
	Or/.	Every	mothers	son	of	all	that	multitude	of	hearers,
	went	to	be	a	witness	of	the	misery	your	Sisters	fortunes	must
	have	come	to,	if	my	adversary	who	did	love	her	first,	had
	been	her	Husband.
	Ami.	The	success	may	draw	a	testimony	from	them,	to
	confirm	the	same	opinion,	but	they	went	prepar'd	with	no
	such	hope	or	purpose.
	Or/.	And	did	you	intreat	the	number	of	them,	that	are
	come	with	no	such	hope	or	purpose.
	Ami.	Tush,	your	own	experience	of	my	heart	can	answer
	ye.
	Or/.	This	doubtful,	makes	me	clearly	understand	your
	disposition.
	Ami.	If	your	cause	be	just,
	I	wish	you	a	conclusion	like	your	cause.
	Or/.	I	can	have	any	common	charity	to	such	a	Prayer
	From	a	friend	I	would	expedl	a	love	to	prosper	in	;
	Without	exceptions	such	a	love	as	might
	Make	all	my	undertakings	thankful	to't	;
	Precisely	just	is	seldom	faithful	in	our	wishes
	To	another	mans	desires	:	Farewel.	[Exit	Orl.

CONSOLATION	FOR	THE	BEREAVED.	313
	The	experience	is	one	which	will	fit	you	for	some
	higher	duty	in	the	world.	It	comes	within	the	pro
	vince	of	your	calling	"to	comfort;"	now	you	can
	do	it	more	efficiently.
	To	offset	the	thought	of	the	"	empty	crib	"	came
	a	"	Tract,"	with	the	message:
	"	One	less	at	home	!
	The	charmed	circle	broken	a	dear	face
	Missed	day	by	day	from	its	accustomed	place,
	But	cleansed	and	saved	and	perfected	by	grace	!
	One	more	in	heaven	!
	"One	more	in	heaven	!
	Another	thought	to	brighten	cloudy	days,
	Another	theme	of	thankfulness	and	praise,
	Another	link	on	high	our	souls	to	raise
	To	home	and	heaven	!
	"One	more	at	Home	!
	That	home	where	separation	cannot	be,
	That	home	where	none	are	missed	eternally.
	Lord	Jesus,	grant	us	all	a	place	with	Thee,
	At	home	in	heaven	I	"
	In	addition	to	all	the	foregoing,	the	suggestion	of
	Dr.	Bridgman	brought	its	measure	of	solace.	."A
	family	lives	but	a	half	-life	until	it	has	sent	its	fore
	runners	into	the	heavenly	world,	until	those	who
	linger	here	in	thought	can	cross	the	river	and	fold
	a	transfigured,	glorious	form	in	the	embrace	of	their
	human	love."	The	blessing	is	ours.	By	these
	means	the	great	Sympathizer	has	given	"	a	garland
	for	ashes,	the	oil	of	joy	for	mourning,	the	garment
	of	praise	for	the	spirit	of	heaviness."

SCHOOLS	OF	PAINTING.

	Powerful	and	poetic	Venice,	so	magnificent	and	peculiar
	in	its	political	and	social	relations,	was	no	less	luxurious	and
	distinct	in	the	character	of	its	art.	The	development	of
	color	was	its	crowning	charm	;	while	its	large	and	fascinating
	compositions	glow	with	brightness	and	joy.	Taine	remarks	:
	"	The	sensual	lustre	of	the	coloring	accords	with	superb	dec-
	orations,	with	the	liberty	and	splendor	of	the	life,	with	the
	frank	energy	and	high-born	nobleness	of	the	heads,	with	the
	voluptuous	tints	of	the	living	flesh,	with	the	lively	and	easy
	movement	of	the	groups,	and	the	universal	diffusion	of	hap-
	piness."	Its	long	line	of	painters	is	one	of	unusual	excellence	;
	but	many	of	the	early	dates	are	disputed	and	uncertain	:

	in	the	centre	of	the	hall.	TSARPI	follows	the	priests,
	covered	with	a	long	transparent	veil	of	black,	sown
	with	gold	stars;	RUAHMAH,	in	white,	bears	her
	train.	TSARPI	stands	before	the	altar,	facing	it,	and
	lifts	her	right	hand	holding	a	knife.	RUAHMAH

6	THE	FOUR	EPISTLES
	while	engaged	in	active	apostolic	labour,
	and	before	he	had	been	to	Rome.
	Other	ancient	witnesses	bear	the	same
	testimony.	In	the	libraries	of	Europe	are
	some	500	Greek	MSS.	of	epistles	claiming
	to	be	Paul	s,	of	dates	varying	from	the
	sixteenth	to	the	fourth	century.	Of	these
	MSS.,	fragmentary	though	many	of	them
	are,	a	great	majority	contain	this	epistle.
	There	are	a	still	larger	number	of	Latin
	MSS.,	some	as	old	as	the	sixth	century.
	Most	of	them	have	this	epistle.	Going
	farther	from	home,	we	find	in	the	East
	scattered	Churches	which	in	the	fifth
	century	were	broken	off	from	the	rest	of
	Christendom.	The	Nestorians	amid	the
	lonely	wilds	of	the	Turko-Persian	frontier
	and	on	the	coasts	of	Southern	India,	the
	Jacobites	in	Egypt	and	Syria,	and	the
	Maronites	on	the	slopes	of	Lebanon,	have
	lingered	to	our	day,	separated	from	each
	other	and	from	the	rest	of	the	Christian
	Church.	Yet	all	have	ancient	MSS.	of	the
	Bible	in	the	language	of	the	early	Syrian
	Christians.	They	all	hold	as	genuine	the
	Ep.	to	the	Romans.	Their	long	and


Preface.	vii
	seeks	to	give	some	idea	of	the	Survey	itself;	the	third	deals
	with	the	technical	terms.	The	fourth	is	of	a	more	general
	character,	attempting,	as	it	does,	to	give	a	sketch	of	feudal	society
	in	England.	The	fifth	section	treats	briefly	of	two	feudal
	"	institutions	"	the	Church	and	the	Borough	both	destined	to
	exercise	enormous	influence	in	the	moulding	of	later	history	;
	while	the	sixth	and	last	summarises	topographical	and	similar
	material.

208	RELATIONSHIPS	OF	THE	COCCACE^
	recorded	more	than	two	or	three	times,	with	specific
	names,	it	seems	simpler	to	consider	them	as	variants	of
	the	commoner	types	to	which	they	are	respectively	allied.
	Motility,	according	to	this	view,	is	a	property	which	may
	be	developed,	under	exceptional	conditions,	in	any	group
	of	the	cocci,	altho	its	manifestation	is	extremely	rare.
	Besides	these	more	or	less	clearly	described	forms	there
	are	a	few	published	descriptions	of	cocci	which	their	ob-
	servers	failed	to	cultivate	on	artificial	media,	which	may
	be	considered	as	perhaps	incompletely	characterized
	albococci.	The	descriptions	of	M.	Beigelii	(Rabenhorst)	,
	Migula;	M.	cuniculorum	(Schroter),	Migula;	M.	decal-
	vans	(Thin),	Schroter;	M.	dendroporthos,	Ludwig;	M.
	hyalinus	(Ehrenberg),	Migula;	M.	imperatoris,	Roze;
	M.	nuclei,	Roze;	and	M.	progrediens,	Schroter,	are	of
	this	indefinite	sort.


Romance	215
	On	roads	of	clay,	'neath	skies	of	grey,	though	fate	compel	us
	to	advance,
	Beyond	the	turning	of	the	way	there	sits	and	waits	for	us
	Romance.
	Around	yon	cape	of	lion-shape,	that	meets	the	wave	with	lion-
	brow,
	A	ship	sails	in	from	lands	unknown;	Romance	stands	shining
	on	her	prow.
	At	dead	of	night,	a	fiery	light	from	out	the	heart	of	darkness
	glares;
	The	engine,	rocking	in	its	flight,	once	more	into	the	darkness
	flares	;
	The	train	flies	fast,	the	bridge	is	past;	white	faces	for	a
	moment	gleam
	And	at	the	window	sits	Romance,	and	gazes	down	into	the
	stream.
	When	first	the	child,	with	wonder	wild,	looks	on	the	world
	with	shining	eyes,
	Romance	becomes	his	guardian	mild,	and	tells	to	him	her
	stories	wise.
	And	when	the	light	fades	into	night,	and	ended	is	their	life's
	short	span,
	To	other	wonder-worlds	she	leads	the	spirit	of	the	Dying	Man.
	Right	grim	gods	be	Reality,	and	iron-handed	Circumstance.
	Cast	off	their	fetters,	friend	!	Break	free	and	seek	the	shrine
	of	fair	Romance.
	And	when	dark	days	with	cares	would	craze	your	brain,	then
	she	will	take	your	hand,
	And	lead	you	on	by	greenwood	ways	unto	a	green	and
	pleasant	land.
	There	you	will	see	brave	company,	all	making	gay	and
	gallant	cheer
	Blanaid	the	Fair,	the	Deirdre	rare,	and	Gold	Gudrun	and
	Guinevere;
	And	Merlin	wise,	with	dreaming	eyes,	and	Tristram	of	the

	difficult	situation.	Yet	it	is	hard	to	see	just	what
	he	had	accomplished	by	crossing	the	ocean.	He

	note	to	the	Washington	Trust	Company,	notifying
	them	of	her	change	of	name	and	complaining	of	the
	mistake	they	had	made	in	cutting	off	her	drafts.

CHAP-BOOK	ESSAYS	235
	By	Maurice	Thompson
	Louise	Labe	went	the	common	road	of	the	irre
	sponsible	New	Woman	in	literature,	the	road	so
	very	popular	to-day,	which	is	paved	with	erotic
	poetry	and	the	fiction	of	free	love	and	marital	in
	fidelity,	beginning	her	new	life	by	posing	as	a	victim
	bound	in	loveless	marriage-chains	on	the	altar	of
	monstrous	social	injustice.	Her	poetry	was	super-
	Sapphic	and	addressed	to	the	other	man,	not	her
	husband,	a	man	who	presumably	was	above	the
	trade	of	a	cordier,	and	therefore	irresistible	to	the
	low-born	poetess.
	We	must	distinctly	agree	with	Sainte-Beuve,	who
	chivalrously	acquits	Louise	Labe	of	actual	personal
	dishonor.	This	thing	of	dressing	up	a	literary	effigy
	and	labelling	it	with	the	lyrical	egotism	as	self-
	expression	is	an	old	poetic	ruse,	a	fiction	of	the
	Muses.	Louise	was	good	enough	for	her	time	and
	place.	She	imagined	herself	a	sociologist,	and	some
	how	got	it	in	mind	that	the	only	purpose	of	sociol
	ogy	is	by	hook	or	crook	to	get	rid	of	the	sanctity
	of	the	marriage	relation.	Indeed,	if	we	may	judge
	the	New	Woman,	from	Louise	s	time	to	now,	by
	her	poems	and	fictions,	we	must	inevitably	conclude
	that	she	would	define	sociology	as	the	science	of
	making	the	social	evil	appear	harmlessly	attractive;

	Yes,	but	where	did	she	come	from?	You	know

	don	t,	I	ll	have	you	arrested	on	suspicion.	You	ll	be

	DEAR	FRIEND	:
	Will	you	kindly	give	my	best	regards	to	Mrs.	Sachse-Hof-
	meister	and	also	thank	her	in	my	name	for	her	well-meant
	proposals.
	I	am	now	always	at	home	and	request	you	two	to	come
	just	as	it	pleases	you.
	At	all	events,	however,	be	sure	to	combine	your	visit	with
	that	of	Mr.	Winkelmann.
	I	also	thank	you	for	the	information	you	sent	me	;	I	have
	taken	the	necessary	steps.
	May	we	soon	meet	again	!	Your
	RICHARD	WAGNER.

	DEAR	FRIEND	:
	I	came	here	with	my	wife,	Eva	and	Fidie	to	consult	a
	dentist,	and	intend	to	return	Monday	afternoon	by	way	of
	Leipsic	to	avoid	a	night	trip	from	Dresden.	Be	kind	enough
	to	engage	rooms	for	us	in	the	Hotel	Hauff.	If	there	is	any-
	thing	interesting	to	be	seen	in	the	theatre	we	may	go	there.
	It	is	also	of	importance	to	hear	something	definite	about
	Neumann's	plans	for	Dresden.	I	have	not	spoken	about	this
	to	anybody	connected	with	the	theatre,	but	Dr.	Hartmann
	assures	me	that	Neumann	has	told	him,	before	starting	on	his

	The	letters	from	Frau	Cosima	Wagner	I	do	not	feel	at	liberty
	to	print	entire	on	account	of	some	personal	allusions.	A	few	ex-
	tracts,	however,	are	permissible.
	FROM	COSIMA	WAGNER
	MY	DEAR	FRIEND	:
	On	the	morning	of	June	6th,	just	on	Siegfried's	birthday,
	we	received	your	entertaining	and	newsy	letter,	and	you	could
	not	have	sent	us	a	more	welcome	gift	than	all	this	information.
	Every	item	was	of	value	to	us	in	confirming	and	enlarging	our
	impressions.	I	am	sorry	we	cannot	have	you	among	us	this
	summer,	but	I	rejoice	greatly	at	the	thought	of	seeing	'you	again
	next	summer,	and	so	do	my	children.
	Your	Tristan	performance	must	have	been	very	fine,	and
	I	wish	I	could	hear	it	again	sung	beautifully	as	I	once	did	by
	Schnorr.
	You	are	quite	right	:	the	theatre-hero	mask	(Theater-Heros
	Fratze)	is	of	small	account,	and	I	believe	that	whoever	sings	and
	speaks	these	works	with	real	beauty	of	voice	finds	the	proper
	physiognomic	expression	and	gestures	spontaneously.
	I	am	glad	to	hear	from	you	so	many	good	things	about
	Madame	Nordica.	The	hours	devoted	to	her	studying	of	the
	role	of	Elsa	with	me	are	among	my	pleasant	reminiscences.
	Did	Jean	de	Reszke	tell	you	he	studied	the	part	of	Tristan	with
	Kniese	?
	I	am	dreadfully	sorry	not	to	be	able	to	have	these	two
	great	artists,	Jean	and	Edouard,	with	me.	I	have	done	all	I
	could	to	secure	them.
	We	are	working	busily	amid	the	difficult	circumstances	cre-
	ated	by	the	present-day	theater	!	Alas,	our	art	is	in	a	dreadful
	condition.	Everything	is	going	to	ruin.
