Excerpt from Poems and Prose Writings, Vol. 2 of 2 "The world is empty, the heart is dead surely! In this world, plainly, all seemeth amiss." It went to my heart when they cleared the old parlour of the venerable family furniture, and stripped the oak panels of the prints of the months, - July with her large fan and full ruffles at the elbows, and January in her muff and tippet. They would have pulled down the panels, too, to make the room as smart and bright as paper could make it; but placing my back against them, I swore by the spirit of my grandfather, that not a joint in the old work should be started while I could stand to defend it. And I have my revenge when I see how pert, insignificant, and raw every thing looks, surrounded by the high and dark walls of the apartment. But the old furniture was huddled together topsy-turvy in the garret. The round oak table, which had many a day smoked with the substantial dinners of former times, lost one of its leaves by too rough handling; but an old oak desk, at which my grand father in his days of courtship was wont to pen epistles and sonnets to my grandmother, escaped the violence of the revolution with only a few scratches.

Excerpt from The Works of John Dryden, Vol. 2 of 2: In Verse and Prose, With a Life After this particular account of the beauties in the Georgics, i should, in the next place, en deavour to point out its imperfections, if it has any. But, though I think there are some few parts in it that are not so beautiful as the rest, I shall not presume to name them, as rather sus pooting my own judgment, than I can believe a fault to be in that poem, which lay so long un der Virgil's correction, and had his last ptit to it. The First Georgie was probably bur lesqued in the author's lifetime; for we still find in the scholiasts a verse that ridicules part of a line translated from Hesiod - Nadia are, we nudes: And we may easily guess at the judgment of this extraordinary critic, whoever he was, from his censuring this particular pre cept. We may be sure Virgil would not have translated it from Hesiod, had he not discovered some beauty in it; and indeed the beauty of it is, what I have before observed to be frequently met with in Virgil, the delivering the precept so indirectly, and singling out the particular cir cumstance of sowing and ploughing naked, to suggest to us, that these employments are proper only in the hot season of the year.

Excerpt from Prose on Several Occasions, Vol. 2: Accompanied With Some Pieces in Verse We are assured by some gentlemen of the English Factory, that the absolute laws against witchcraft, &c. will speedily be revived in Great-Britain! Ireland. Dublin. We hear from London, that the apparition in Cock-Lane, has never been seen by nobody. - Faulkner's Journal. Scotland. Glasgow. The seventh son of a seventh son is just set out on a walk to London, in order to visit the Spirit in Cock-Lane; and as this gentleman is blest with the faculty of second sight, it is thought that he will be able to see her. The spirit's great propensity to scratching makes it generally supposed here, that Miss Fanny died of the itch rather than the small-pox and that the ghost is certainly mangy.

Excerpt from The Poems and Prose Writings of Sumner Lincoln Fairfield, Vol. 1 of 2 But a new affliction was impending. Marietta, the beautiful sister just mentioned, was seized on the first of September, 1810, by a fatal malady, which, within a few days, closed her unoffending career, and wafted her spotless spirit far beyond the taint and trouble of the earth. There were murmurs heard as her sweet body descended into Earth, for the child was a radiant being of loveliness and love; but amidst all the desolation of bereavement, those most nearly allied could not, when the first agony had subsided, question the wisdom of the unerring father or the universe. Had her years been extended to woman hood, she might have suffered like her brother; with him she would have borne all that the fiends of earth could inflict, and the soft pulse of joy might have become the agonizing throb of sympathetic anguish.

Excerpt from Selections From Literature of All Times and Nations, Vol. 2: The Library of Wit and Humor, Prose and Poetry Friar john is in effective contrast with Panurge, and a kind of friendly bickering is constantly kept up between them. Lusty, roaring, bullying speeches are given to the monk and sly waggeries, odd conceits, and astute sophistries are given to Panurge. If there is a shipwreck or a skirmish, Friar J ohu is foremost in the bustle; fear is un known to him. He is a mass of profanity and valor; he butts his way through the world like a bull, while Panurge glides through it like a snake.
