“‘Sabrina fair.
Listen where thou art sitting—
“Ow—Hold on a minute. I’ve caught my foot in something.” Mavis stopped and took hold of her brother’s arm to steady him; and as she did so both children plainly heard a voice that was not the voice of either of them. It was the sweetest voice in the world they thought, and it said:
“Save her. We die in captivity.”

# What's Wrong with the World/Chapter4.3

After all the modern clatter of Calvinism, therefore, it is only with the born child that anybody dares to deal; and the question is not eugenics but education. Or again, to adopt that rather tiresome terminology of popular science, it is not a question of heredity but of environment. I will not needlessly complicate this question by urging at length that environment also is open to some of the objections and hesitations which paralyze the employment of heredity. I will merely suggest in passing that even about the effect of environment modern people talk much too cheerfully and cheaply. The idea that surroundings will mold a man is always mixed up with the totally different idea that they will mold him in one particular way. To take the broadest case, landscape no doubt affects the soul; but how it affects it is quite another matter. To be born among pine-trees might mean loving pine-trees. It might mean loathing pine-trees. It might quite seriously mean never having seen a pine-tree. Or it might mean any mixture of these or any degree of any of them. So that the scientific method here lacks a little in precision. I am not speaking without the book; on the contrary, I am speaking with the blue book, with the guide-book and the atlas. It may be that the Highlanders are poetical because they inhabit mountains; but are the Swiss prosaic because they inhabit mountains? It may be the Swiss have fought for freedom because they had hills; did the Dutch fight for freedom because they hadn't? Personally I should think it quite likely. Environment might work negatively as well as positively. The Swiss may be sensible, not in spite of their wild skyline, but be cause of their wild skyline. The Flemings may be fantastic artists, not in spite of their dull skyline, but because of it.
I only pause on this parenthesis to show that, even in matters admittedly within its range, popular science goes a great deal too fast, and drops enormous links of logic. Nevertheless, it remains the working reality that what we have to deal with in the case of children is, for all practical purposes, environment; or, to use the older word, education. When all such deductions are made, education is at least a form of will-worship; not of cowardly fact-worship; it deals with a department that we can control; it does not merely darken us with the barbarian pessimism of Zola and the heredity-hunt. We shall certainly make fools of ourselves; that is what is meant by philosophy. But we shall not merely make beasts of ourselves; which is the nearest popular definition for merely following the laws of Nature and cowering under the vengeance of the flesh. Education contains much moonshine; but not of the sort that makes mere mooncalves and idiots the slaves of a silver magnet, the one eye of the world. In this decent arena there are fads, but not frenzies. Doubtless we shall often find a mare's nest; but it will not always be the nightmare's.

Tamely, frail body, abstain to-day; to-day My soul eats twice, Christ hither and away. She sees Him man, so like God made in this, That of them both a circle emblem is, Whose first and last concur; this doubtful day Of feast or fast, Christ came, and went away. She sees Him nothing, twice at once, who's all; She sees a Cedar plant itself, and fall; Her Maker put to making, and the Head Of life, at once, not yet alive, yet dead. She sees at once the Virgin Mother stay Reclused at home, public at Golgotha; Sad and rejoiced she's seen at once, and seen At almost fifty, and at scarce fifteen. At once a Son is promised her, and gone; Gabriell gives Christ to her, He her to John; Not fully a mother, She's in orbity; At once receiver and the legacy. All this, and all between, this day hath shown, Th' abridgement of Christ's story, which makes one (As in plain maps, the furthest west is east) Of th' angels Ave, and Consummatum est. How well the Church, God's Court of Faculties Deals, in sometimes, and seldom joining these!
As by the self-fix'd Pole we never do Direct our course, but the next star thereto, Which shows where th'other is, and which we say (Because it strays not far) doth never stray; So God by His Church, nearest to Him, we know And stand firm, if we by her motion go; His Spirit, as His fiery pillar, doth Leade, and His Church, as cloud; to one end both. This Church, by letting those days join, hath shown Death and conception in mankind is one; Or 'twas in Him the same humility, That He would be a man, and leave to be; Or as creation He hath made, as God, With the last judgement, but one period, His imitating Spouse would join in one Manhood's extremes: He shall come, He is gone; Or as though one blood drop, which thence did fall, Accepted, would have served, He yet shed all, So though the least of His pains, deeds, or words, Would busy a life, she all this day affords; This treasure then, in gross, my soul, uplay, And in my life retail it every day.

United States Supreme Court
297 U.S. 119
Violet Trapping Company v. Grace
Argued: Jan. 10-13, 1936. --- Decided: Feb 3, 1936
Appellant is a sublessee of lands leased by the state of Louisiana in 1924 to the Terre aux Boeufs Drainage District. The lands had become the property of the state by an adjudication for unpaid taxes of 1911 to 1923. The lease by the state contained a clause that the lease woule end in case the lands were redeemed by the former owner or sold by the state. At the time the lease and sublease were made, the lands could be redeemed only by payment of all taxes, penalties, and interest due at the date of redemption. By a subsequent statute, Act No. 161 of 1934, the Legislature of Louisiana permitted redemption on different and less onerous terms, that is, by the payment, on an installment basis, of the actual taxes for which the property had been adjudicated to the state. Under that statute, certificates for the redemption of the lands in question were issued by the register of the state land office. Appellant then sought mandamus to compel the cancellation of the certificates, upon the ground that the Act of 1934 violated the Constitution of the United States (article 1, § 10, cl. 1; Amend. 14) in that the act impaired the obligation of appellant's contract of lease, deprived appellant of its property without due process of law, and denied to appellant the equal protection of the laws. Judgment against the appellant was affirmed by the Supreme Court of the state. That court decided that there was no impairment of the contract as the clause in the original lease, making it subject to redemption, was 'free of ambiguity and without limitation as to the conditions under which the properties embraced in the lease might be redeemed or sold, or the price to be paid therefor.' State ex rel. Violet Trapping Co. v. Grace, 182 La. 405, 162 So. 26, 28.
While this Court, when the contract clause of the Federal Constitution is invoked, may determine for itself the meaning and effect of the contract (Larson v. South Dakota, 278 U.S. 429, 433, 49 S.Ct. 196, 73 L.Ed. 441; United States Mortgage Co. v. Matthews, 293 U.S. 232, 236, 55 S.Ct. 168, 79 L.Ed. 299), we find no reason for disagreeing with the conclusion reached by the state court. The questions sought to be raised under the due process and equal protection clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment are without merit. Bachtel v. Wilson, 204 U.S. 36, 41, 27 S.Ct. 243, 51 L.Ed. 357; Rast v. Van Deman, 240 U.S. 342, 357, 36 S.Ct. 370, 60 L.Ed. 679, L.R.A.1917A, 421, Ann.Cas.1917B, 455; Sproles v. Binford, 286 U.S. 374, 396, 52 S.Ct. 581, 76 L.Ed. 1167. The judgment is affirmed.

# Violets and Other Tales/A Plaint

A PLAINT.
Dear God, 'tis hard, so awful hard to lose The one we love, and see him go afar, With scarce one thought of aching hearts behind, Nor wistful eyes, nor outstretched yearning hands. Chide not, dear God, if surging thoughts arise. And bitter questionings of love and fate, But rather give my weary heart thy rest, And turn the sad, dark memories into sweet. Dear God, I fain my loved one were anear, But since thou will'st that happy thence he'll be, I send him forth, and back I'll choke the grief Rebellious rises in my lonely heart. I pray thee, God, my loved one joy to bring; I dare not hope that joy will be with me, But ah, dear God, one boon I crave of thee, That he shall ne'er forget his hours with me.

# Violets and Other Tales/At Bay St. Louis

AT BAY ST. LOUIS.
Soft breezes blow and swiftly show  Through fragrant orange branches parted, A maiden fair, with sun-flecked hair,  Caressed by arrows, golden darted. The vine-clad tree holds forth to me  A promise sweet of purple blooms, And chirping bird, scarce seen but heard  Sings dreamily, and sweetly croons  At Bay St. Louis.
The hammock swinging, idly singing,  Lissome nut-brown maid  Swings gaily, freely, to-and-fro; The curling, green-white waters casting cool, clear shade,  Rock small, shell boats that go In circles wide, or tug at anchor's chain, As though to skim the sea with cargo vain,  At Bay St. Louis.
 The maid swings slower, slower to-and-fro, And sunbeams kiss gray, dreamy half-closed eyes;  Fond lover creeping on with foot steps slow, Gives gentle kiss, and smiles at sweet surprise.
 The lengthening shadows tell that eve is nigh,  And fragrant zephyrs cool and calmer grow, Yet still the lover lingers, and scarce breathed sigh,  Bids the swift hours to pause, nor go,  At Bay St. Louis.
# Violets and Other Tales/Amid the Roses

AMID THE ROSES.
There is tropical warmth and languorous life  Where the roses lie  In a tempting drift Of pink and red and golden light Untouched as yet by the pruning knife. And the still, warm life of the roses fair  That whisper "Come,"  With promises Of sweet caresses, close and pure Has a thorny whiff in the perfumed air. There are thorns and love in the roses' bed,  And Satan too  Must linger there; So Satan's wiles and the conscience stings, Must now abide—the roses are dead.
