# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Heywood, Thomas

See also Thomas Heywood on Wikipedia; Thomas Heywood in the 11th edition; and the disclaimer.
​HEYWOOD, Thomas, a voluminous dramatist and miscellaneous author of the 16th and 17th centuries, was born in Lincolnshire and was educated at Cambridge, where he became a fellow of Peterhouse. The dates of his birth and death are alike unknown, and the few facts of his life that are preserved have been gleaned chiefly from his own writings. He is mentioned in the MS. book of Henslowe as having written a book or play for the Lord Admiral’s Company in October 1596; and from the same source we learn that in 1598 he was regularly engaged as a player and a sharer in that company. In the preface to The English Traveller, written in 1633, he describes himself as having had “an entire hand or at least a main-finger in two hundred and twenty plays.” Of this number, which probably afterwards was considerably exceeded (for we find him still writing in 1640, and indeed his last published piece did not appear until 1655), only three and twenty survive; but they amply attest that had he chosen to concentrate his powers, he might easily have ranked with the Massingers, Fords, and others of his great contemporaries. “Heywood,” says Charles Lamb, “is a sort of prose Shakespeare; his scenes are to the full as natural and affecting.” His facility and variety are almost without a parallel, his fancy was inexhaustible, and his invention never at a loss; but he delighted to excess in what he called “merry accidents, intermixed with apt and witty jests,” or in other words, in the broadest and coarsest farce. His best pieces, such as A Woman Killed with Kindness, Fortune by Land and Sea, The English Traveller, and The Fair Maid of the West, lie chiefly in the department of what has been called the domestic drama.
Besides his dramatic works, which were partly reprinted by the “Shakespeare Society,” and were published in a complete edition of six vols, with notes and illustrations in 1874, he was the author of Troia Britannica or Great Britain’s Troy (1609), a poem in seventeen cantos “intermixed with many pleasant poetical tales” and “concluding with an universal chronicle from the creation until the present time;” An Apology for Actors, containing three brief treatises (1612); Γυναικεῑον or nine books of various history concerning women (1624); England’s Elizabeth, her Life and Troubles during her minority from the Cradle to the Crown (1681); The Hierarchy of the Blessed Angels (1685); Pleasant Dialogues and Dramas selected out of Lucian, &c. (1687); and The Life of Merlin surnamed Ambrosius (1641).

Honiton is supposed to have originated in a Roman settlement at Hembury fort, about 3 miles from the town, where there are still traces of an extensive camp conjectured to be the Moridunum of Antoninus. The town first sent members to parliament in the reign of Edward I., but after the reign of Edward II. the privilege was suspended until 1640. In 1867 its representation was limited to one member, and in 1868 it was disfranchised. It was incorporated as a municipal borough in 1846.

Erratum.— Page 31, for "flaunted" read "flaunting."
Printed by R. Folkard & Son, 22, Devonshire St., Queen Sq., London.
# Erotica/Even though I were Dead

Even though I were Dead
Even though I were dead, Cold, and divorced from men, My heart would leap up again In hurried throbs at your tread, Passing it overhead.
# Erotica/Had We but Met

Had We but Met
Ah, Love, had we but met before, When standing at the gate of life, Ere we had opened wide that door— Now, I a husband, you a wife, Have met too late. Ah, say not so, You would have loved me years ago.
Then why not now! What earthly ties Made by mankind can bind our souls Which rush together! Let us rise Above such bondage. What controls A love like ours? 'Tis not of earth, But from Promethean fires has birth. ​'Tis no low-born material flame, Fanned by the breath of lustful men, That flickers fiercely first, then tame, Then fiercely once again, and then Dies down into grey embers, cold Because this life seems growing old!
Nay, let our love, Sweet, vanquish Time, Cast out all fear, forget the past And its attendant ills—sublime Stretches the future's vista—vast Potentialities therein, To love is surely not a sin!
'Tis far more sinful, Sweet, to me, To yield yourself up to abuse Of lust in guise of love, than be Freely beloved. That man's vile use, Though sanctioned by our social creed, Has left your body poor indeed.
# Erotica/I Called in Vain

I Called in Vain
I called in vain unto the night, To shew me heaven and heaven's God; I asked the sea who ruled her might As with a rod.
I asked of all the winds the same, If they too served this unknown God, And from his footstool went and came, Swayed by his nod.
I sought an answer from a star, But it hung in the voiceless void, And on my quest I wandered far Unsatisfied.
Until I whispered to the ground, "O, Mother Earth, canst thou not prove That such exist?" and then I found My heaven, your arms; my God, your love!
# Erotica/Changes

Changes
The sea is the same, yet not the same, The sky is the same, yet not the sky That was over our heads when we hitherward came Just a year ago, my Love and I.
For then, my Love, you loved me true, Blue was the sea and blue the sky, Beautiful both in their azure hue, But colours will fade and love will die.
Cold and grey are the sea and sky, Waves are swelling against the shore, Bearing you far from me; and I List to their crooning of 'nevermore.'
# Erotica/Dear Little Feet

Dear Little Feet
Dear little feet which fain must press The ways of this world's wickedness, When older grown, May God send down His brightest rays To guide ye through the stir and stress, Into the paths of prayer and praise Towards His throne.
# Erotica/I Love My Love

I Love My Love
I love my Love because my Love loves me. Ah! that she did so as I'd fain be loved With love by which the mountains may be moved, Uprooted and cast in the midmost sea.
Such love surpassing, deep and broad and high, O'ershadowing all things else in earth, in heaven, Love unalloyed at morn, at noon, at even, Love unalloyed when darkness holds the sky.
A Love that overcometh and will prove Itself through storm and sunshine, frost and fire; A Love which naught can change, which naught can tire, Even Death's self can not destroy such love. ​So, Sweet, let me set seal upon your mouth And lie within your arms' encircling fold, Gaze in your eyes, and in their depth behold Twin starry loves whilst all the balmy South
Gives up her richest spices in your breath, When heart tumultuously doth beat on heart, The while our spirits mingle ne'er to part Wholly again, though earthly ties by Death
Are severed, 'tis but for a time, and then Our spirits will commingle and commune, Each with the other strung to Love's one tune And the sweet memories of what has been.
For past and present still to us belong, To you and I, dear Love, then wherefore waste Thoughts on the unknown future, rather taste The sweets of life and do not call it wrong
To be too happy. Let us therefore cast An offering to the Gods like those of eld Strove to appease the Deity who held The compensating balances. And last,
When this life's cup is drunken to the lees, Leaving its after-taste upon your tongue, You yet will kiss my lips with lips unwrung By bitterness regretful. On my knees ​I pray you, Sweetheart, to be wise in time. You cannot change the Ethiop's dusky skin! The leopard's spots! So leave him with his sin Ere his contagion drags you through more slime.
The false God whom you worshipp'd shall lie dead, His groves hewn down, his altar overthrown; Peace, happiness, and love shall be your own, Three golden halos hung above your head.
For you have eaten of the tree of life After the tree of knowledge, and shall live Another life, and all the past shall give Its blackness up, its sorrow, sin, and strife,
To form a background for the fair "to be," Which we'll embroider with love's golden skein
The story of your past, of false love slain And true love shrined upon its memory.
The past shall be a dream; you will awake And wonder could such things have ever been.
Your scars of slavery which now are green Shall be no more. You will arise and take
Within your grasp that fellow hand which Fate At length has guided to its destined end. We grope the whole world round until we bend Our steps predoom'd through Love's celestial gate.
# Erotica/Carpe Diem

Carpe Diem
Let us learn all that love can teach, Dear heart, while we and love are young; Too soon, alas, Life's bark will reach
Those sandy shores, that thirsty beach, Lashed by the sad wave's tongue.
For Love will land us on that strand Strewn with gaunt ribs of former wrecks, If we, indifferent to command, Handle no ropes, but idly stand Along the uncared-for decks.
# Erotica/Francesca

Francesca
Stately she moved, my lady, through the wood,
With lingering footfalls following her own thought Which like a child at random, heeding naught, Sped on before, one of a merry brood
As yet by Love untaught.
Upon the turf I lay in musing mood, Pillowed by some gnarl-rooted forest tree, And watched that vision passing silently As in a dream, till all at once she stood Struck still at sight of me.
Twin starry sapphires swinging in her ears Gave silent challenge to her liquid eyes Which challenged mine awhile in mute surmise Or e'er she spake.—Even so across the years She cometh to me yet, but veiled, alas, with tears.

United States Supreme Court
178 U.S. 317
Ex parte Union Steamboat Company
Argued: May 14, 1900. --- Decided: May 28, 1900
This was a petition for a writ of mandamus to the district court for the eastern district of Michigan, commanding it to set aside a decree entered in the case of The New York, 175 U.S. 187, 44 L. ed. 126, 20 Sup. Ct. Rep. 67, and enter a decree dividing the damages equally, so that petitioner would not be decreed to pay more than one half the total damages arising out of the collision between the New York and the Conemaugh, with interest thereon not exceeding 5 per cent per annum.
Upon the opinion of this court in the case of the New York being filed, a mandate issued that the decre of the court of appeals be reversed, and the case remanded to the district court, with direction 'to enter a decree in conformity with the opinion of this court, with interest at the same rate per annum that decrees bear in the state of Michigan.' Upon the case coming on to be heard in the district court, the petitioner, the Union Steamboat Company, owner of the propeller New York, submitted a decree to the effect that both vessels were in fault for the collision, and that the damages resulting therefrom be equally divided between the Erie & Western Transportation Company, owner of the Conemaugh, and the Union Steamboat Company, owner of the New York; that such damages amounted in all to the sum of $74,319.49, of which certain intervening underwriters of the cargo were entitled to, and recovered from the steamboat company, $19,841.56; that the transportation company, as trustees for the underwriters and owners of the cargo of the Conemaugh, not intervening, suffered damages in the sum of $19,627.67; that, as owner of the propeller, it had suffered damages in the sum of $30,508.46, aggregating the sum of $50,136.13; that the transportation company recover of the petitioner one half of $50,136.13, less one half the sum of $19,841.56, decreed to be paid to the intervening petitioners, etc.
The court, however, declined to enter this decree; refused to permit the petitioner to recoup any sum that it might pay to the owners or underwriters of the cargo of the Conemaugh, from any sum that was due from the steamboat company for damages sustained by the Conemaugh, so that such company was compelled to pay of the total damages about 76 per cent instead of 50 per cent thereof.
Messrs. C. E. Kremer, F. C. Harvey, H. C. Wisner, and W. O. Johnson for petitioner.
Messrs. F. H. Canfield, Harvey D. Goulder, F. S. Masten, and S. H. Holding for respondent.

# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Torgau

See also Torgau on Wikipedia; Torgau in the 11th Edition; and the disclaimer.
TORGAU, a fortified town in the Prussian province of Saxony, is situated on the left bank of the Elbe, 30 miles north-east of Leipsic and 26 miles south-east of Witten berg. Its most conspicuous building is the Schloss Hartenfels, on an island in the Elbe, begun in 1481 and completed in 1544 by the elector John Frederick the Magnanimous. This castle is one of the largest Renaissance buildings in Germany, and contains a chapel consecrated by Luther in 1544. The town-house is a quaint building of the middle of the 16th century, and there are several other large and fine buildings, chiefly modern. The parish church contains the tomb of Catherine von Bora, Luther's wife. The once nourishing weaving and brewing industries of Torgau have declined in modern times; but the town has manufactures of gloves and miscellaneous articles, and carries on trade in grain, &c., on the Elbe and by rail. The fortifications, begun in 1807 at Napoleon's command, are largely surrounded with water; they include a tete-de-pont at the end of the bridge across the Elbe. In 1885 the population was 10,988 [in 1783 4000), a large proportion of them soldiers.
Torgau is said to have existed as the capital of a distinct principality in the time of the emperor Henry I., but by 1305 it was in the possession of the margrave of Meissen. It was a frequent residence of the electors of Saxony. In Reformation times Torgau appears as the spot where John of Saxony and Philip of Hesse formed their league against the Roman Catholic imperial estates; and the Torgau Articles, drawn up here by Luther in 1530, were the basis of the Augsburg Confession. The Thirty Years War inflicted great suffering on the town. In 1760 Frederick the Great defeated the Austrians in the neighbourhood of Torgau. The town capitulated to Tauentzien on January 10, 1814, after a siege of three months.

TOPEKA, a city of the United States, the county seat of Shawnee county and the capital of the State of Kansas, is situated (39° 3′ N. lat. and 95° 39′ W. long.) for the most part upon the south bank of the Kansas or Kaw river, upon a level prairie bench considerably elevated above the river. A small portion, known locally as North Topeka, lies upon the north side of the river. Besides the State capitol, which is an imposing building in the midst of an extensive park, the city contains the State insane asylum and the reform school. The Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fé Railroad Company has its offices and work shops here, and the city is also intersected by a branch of the Union Pacific line. In 1860 Topeka had only 759 inhabitants; in 1870 the number had risen to 5790. In 1880 the population was 15,452 (8140 males and 7312 females); and in 1886 the number is returned at 25,005, making Topeka the second largest city in the State. The assessed valuation in 1886 was $6,547,079, and the debt of the corporation only $422,900.
