# American Medical Biographies/Bruce, Archibald

​Bruce, Archibald (1777–1818)
Archibald Bruce, physician and mineralogist, was born in New York City, in February, 1777, and died there of apoplexy February 22, 1818. His father, William Bruce, the head of the British Army at New York, upon being ordered to the West Indies, specially directed that his son should not be brought up to the medical profession. Archibald had graduated in arts at Columbia College in 1795. He became interested in the lectures of Nicholas Romayne (q.v.) and in the teachings of Dr. Hosack (q.v.) and attended courses at Kings College. In 1798 he went to Europe and traveled in France, Switzerland and Italy for two years, collecting a mineralogical cabinet of great value, also attending lectures at the University of Edingburgh where he received an M.D. in 1800. He married in London and returned to New York in 1803 and began practice. From 1807 until 1811 he was professor of materia medica and mineralogy in the College of Physicians and Surgeons, when on the reorganization of the faculty, he and Romayne and others lectured in an extramural course. In 1810 he edited the first purely scientific journal in America, the Journal of American Mineralogy, which with the discovery of the hydrate of magnesia at Hoboken, contributed materially to extend his fame.

SUMMER CAUSERIE
III.
In youth we raised our brows on high, When first we heard Life's thunder roar, Unwearied Life its thunder sent; But we ere long our heads had bent, Why let the brow be smitten sore?
Wherefore lament? Wise destiny Has measured out our final hour! A grave on earth . . . O wondrous fair, Why for another end prepare? Yea, for no longer have we power.

# An Anthology of Modern Bohemian Poetry/The Autumn has come

THE AUTUMN HAS COME
The leaves, once more dying, Are rustling and sighing. Autumn has reached us on tip-toe tread, O'er night he has come, in a mist-garment shrouded, The hues he has softened, the sheen he has clouded, 'Neath his breath o'er the trees gold and purple have sped, And the leaves, that are dying, Are rustling and sighing.
I went from the park; and the meadows were sodden, Roots lay there scattered, grown sere piece by piece; The fallow-land waste, and the stubble untrodden, Save by a flock of cackling geese.
But afar by the wood in a silvery haze, Naught but a reaper was standing alone, With a swing of his scythe,—not a sound did he raise, The last of the yellow-hued ears he had mown.
And methought, as he mistily loomed in the brake, That this was the autumn, that near to us drew, Tears in the petals of asters to shake, Cobwebs on every rafter to strew.
That the autumn it was, that on tip-toe drew nigh, And lo! as the scythe he did flourish and bend, Clearly I heard, from the sheaves came a sigh: I am autumn and death and decay and the end.
The leaves, once more dying, Are rustling and sighing. Autumn has reached us on tip-toe tread, The casket of old recollections he clasped, And ribbons, and leaves that are withered he grasped; But out of the heart, gold and purple have sped, And the leaves there are dying, And rustling and sighing.

# An Anthology of Modern Bohemian Poetry/The Body

THE BODY
Tell unto me, O my soul (from afar thou art come again), What hast thou met and beheld and lost upon earth’s domain? From the depths the music resounded, the snowing of icy stars, Ethereal lips in quivering play: Mornings and noon-tides and ﬂowers in array.
My mornings have strayed in a mystic field, Upon paths where the early daisies grew. In the grass the moments like dew their sparkle revealed, Each stem was aquiver as tho' mysterious birds from it flew: And as if in the sun the most precious incense were being burned, An azure mist o'er the rest of the worlds and fragrance o'er us it did strew.
From salty lakes the noon-tides approached; the vault of the sky with its gleaming On all that had died, the knell of their summer-days was sounding; Their shimmering pinions o'er all the sky to the zenith streaming Above us were bounding. Whither their shadows tool: refuge the eyes were in weariness closed, The blood like the shaft of a furnace its glitter o'er purest of visions did throw A torturing heat in the midst of eternity's rapture, The heavenly city aglow.
Blossoms I saw, and their chalices blooming towards the sun they did hold, Like maidens their lamps, poured full with oils of gold; And in the lamps the fires flickered, grew dark and aflame in the wind, On the secret path of pleasure entwined.
Tell unto me, O my soul, whither thy mornings have roamed, And whither have flown thy noon-tide hours, And faded away like the richness of flowers? My mornings before me their blossoms have laid, In roses that never can fade; To their nest in the sun have flown my noon-tide hours, With the sun they have gone to rest,
And my blossoms within the questioning gaze of my eyes Have died of a mystic pest.

# An Anthology of Modern Bohemian Poetry/The Burden of Eternity

THE BURDEN OF ETERNITY
Gloom, the mute spinner, grief weaved in my yearning, When in the dead waste quailed the hope that lies, Till suddenly at night my eyes were turning Unto the bluish mirror of the skies.
Like stars, as path I chose eternity— Age mars them not, for them no change is wrought; In azure space, calm, crystal-cold, they flee, Who would be deathless, solitude has sought.
Silent sonata, 'mid stars' dreary way, How burden'st thou the soul, that fain would lay Amid a dream of molten gold, its wings!
As from a dozing cup, where joy makes rife Hot passion, rather would I drink of life, Than 'mid vain beams reach deathless lonely things.

# An Anthology of Modern Bohemian Poetry/Spring Song (Vrchlický)

SPRING SONG
Exulting, the lurk to the heaven is soaring, And from the edge of the clouds grey-gleaming On to the world that with wonders is teeming A rain of melodious pearls he is pouring.
And every tone like gold is ringing, And the earth as it hearkens in rapture is thrilled And its bosom with hope of the blossoms is filled, And to it the scent of the fresh soil is clinging.

# An Anthology of Modern Bohemian Poetry/The Bohemian Language

THE BOHEMIAN LANGUAGE
The Bohemian or Czech language belongs, together with Polish, to the western group of the Slavonic languages, thus being closely akin to Russian, Servian, and the minor members of this branch of speech. It is spoken by nearly ten millions of people in Bohemia, Moravia, Austrian Silesia, and, in the slightly modified form of Slovak, in the northern districts of Hungary. In common with the other Slavonic languages, it displays a high degree of inflection. The nouns have seven cases, and the verbal structure displays a remarkable variety and intricacy. Bohemian forms derivatives and compounds with great ease, and is remarkably vigorous and expressive. As a rule, it employs far more purely native words than Polish, but some of the modern writers are beginning to introduce words of foreign origin to a greater extent.
Let it, therefore, not be supposed that Czech is a barbarous jargon. It is a noble, highly cultivated language, of whose kinship Russian may well be proud. Its facility for representing the finest shades of thought renders it peculiarly adapted to lyric poetry.
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published before January 1, 1929.

# An Anthology of Modern Bohemian Poetry/The Cloister Garden

​Ant. Klášterský (b. 1866).
THE CLOISTER GARDEN
O'er Prague the setting sun lies low, Darker the cloister garden doth grow.
Darker and darker beneath our gaze; The nuns still wander along its ways.
The bell has chimed and chillness is spread, Thro' the gloomy gate has the last one sped.
The desolate garden, O child, behold, To the song of the crickets the gloom doth enfold.
But what is the burthen of the refrain, That the trees now whisper with secret strain?
As if in their branches that sway on high, There had seized upon them a peaceful sigh.
And their song in the stillness dies sadly away, Didst thou understand it, my child, O say?
Thou didst understand it, yea, well I know, Thou dost kiss me with lips now in passion aglow.

# An Anthology of Modern Bohemian Poetry/The Coming of Evening

​Adolf Wenig (b. 1874).
THE COMING OF EVENING
On the meadow the corn-crake in anguish is weeping, In the reeds of the marshes his voice is adroop; Eve from the darkening woods is creeping, In flocks from the field the tan birds troop.
The day is closing, the red blood wells From an open wound in the sun setting low; From the hamlets a chiming like grievous knells, And the dusky wood like a mound of woe.
And only the wood-dove's peaceful calling With a lure in the gloom of the forest is falling; O wearied heart, dost thou hear the cry?— The end is nigh. A grievous shadow is cast in the vale, In the heart of the wood is a pathway pale; What would it be, thereon to fare, Returning ne'er? Peace and rest for the soul is there. Eve from the darkening woods is creeping. The corn-crake upon the meadows is sleeping.

# An Anthology of Modern Bohemian Poetry/Stairs

STAIRS
Some on the way to palaces are laid, With statues and with tapestry adorned, Of marble with a grey-hued balustrade.
The second in the burgher's dwelling end, Only of sandstone—unadorned are they, And turning, by a modest path ascend.
Others are worn away in woeful wise, And they are high, where ne'er a foot may tread, And moisture on the wall above them lies.
But yet a thought—whatever stairs they be On which by chance I linger in the town, Ever one thought there is brings grief to me:
That o'er them all 'midst cherished souls' dismay, And with unhappiness and flowing tears, Which in this life are seldom brushed away—
That o'er them all, or 'mid the flickering glow Of tapers, or in semi-gloom, alike The coffin with the dead is borne below.
