# Prometheus Bound (Browning, 1833)/The Autumn

THE AUTUMN.
Go, sit upon the lofty hill, And turn your eyes around, Where waving woods and waters wild Do hymn an autumn sound. The summer sun is faint on them— The summer flowers depart— Sit still—as all transform'd to stone, Except your musing heart.
How there you sat in summer-time, May yet be in your mind; And how you heard the green woods sing Beneath the freshening wind.
Though the same wind now blows around, You would its blast recall; For every breath that stirs the trees, Doth cause a leaf to fall.
Oh! like that wind, is all the mirth That flesh and dust impart: We cannot bear its visitings, When change is on the heart. Gay words and jests may make us smile, When Sorrow is asleep; But other things must make us smile, When Sorrow bids us weep!
The dearest hands that clasp our hands,— Their pressure may be o'er: The dearest voice that meets our ear, That tone may come no more!
Youth fades; and then, the joys of youth, Which once refresh'd our mind, Shall come—as, on those sighing woods, The chilling autumn wind.
Hear not the wind—view not the woods; Look out o'er vale and hill: In spring, the sky encircled them— The sky is round them still. Come autumn's scathe—come winter's cold— Come change—and human fate! Whatever prospect Heaven doth bound, Can ne'er be desolate.
# Prometheus Bound (Browning, 1833)/The Image of God

THE IMAGE OF GOD.
"I am God, and there is none like me."
"Christ, who is the image of God."
Thou! art thou like to God? (I ask'd this question of the glorious sun) Thou high unwearied one, Whose course in heat, and light, and life is run?
Eagles may view thy face—clouds can assuage Thy fiery wrath—the sage Can mete thy stature—thou shalt fade with age. Thou art not like to God.
Thou! art thou like to God? (I ask'd this question of the bounteous earth) Oh thou, who givest birth To forms of beauty and to sounds of mirth?
In all thy glory lurks the worm decay— Thy golden harvests stay Tor seed and toil—thy power shall pass away. Thou art not like to God.
Thou! art thou like to God? (I ask'd this question of my deathless soul) Oh thou, whose musings roll Above the thunder, o'er creation's whole?
Thou art not. Sin, and shame, and agony Within thy deepness lie: They utter forth their voice in thee, and cry 'Thou art not like to God.'
Then art Thou like to God; Thou, who didst bear the sin, and shame, and woe— Oh Thou, whose sweat did flow— Whose tears did gush—whose brow was dead and low?
No grief is like thy grief; no heart can prove Love like unto thy love; And none, save only Thou,—below, above,— Oh God, is like to God!
# Prometheus Bound (Browning, 1833)/To Victoire, on her Marriage

TO VICTOIRE, ON HER MARRIAGE.
Victoire! I knew thee in thy land, Where I was strange to all: I heard thee; and were strange to me The words thy lips let fall.
I loved thee—for the Babel curse Was meant not for the heart: I parted from thee, in such way As those who love may part.
And now a change hath come to us, A sea doth rush between! I do not know if we can be Again as we have been.
I sit down in mine English land, Mine English hearth beside; And thou, to one I never knew, Art plighted for a bride.
It will not wrong thy present joy, With by-gone days to wend; Nor wrongeth it mine English hearth, To love my Gallic friend.
Bind, bind the wreath! the slender ring Thy wedded finger press! May he who calls thy love his own, Call so thine happiness!
Be he Terpander to thine heart, And string fresh strings of gold, Which may out-give new melodies, But never mar the old!
And though I clasp no more thy hand In my hand, and rejoice— And though I see thy face no more, And hear no more thy voice—
Farewell, farewell!—let thought of me Visit thine heart! There is In mine the very selfish prayer, That prayeth for thy bliss!
# Prometheus Bound (Browning, 1833)/Remonstrance and Reply

REMONSTRANCE.
Oh say not it is vain to weep That deafen'd bier above;
Where genius has made room for death, And life is past from love;
That tears can never his bright looks And tender words restore:
I know it is most vain to weep— And therefore, weep the more!
Oh say not I shall cease to weep When years have wither'd by;
That ever I shall speak of joy, As if he could reply;
That ever mine unquivering lips Shall name the name he bore: I know that I may cease to weep, And therefore weep the more!
Say, Time, who slew mine happiness, Will leave to me my woe; And woe's own stony strength shall chain These tears' impassion'd flow: Or say, that these, my ceaseless tears, May life to death restore; For then my soul were wept away, And I should weep no more!
REPLY.
Whereon his ashes lie, Is well!—I know that rains must fall When clouds are in the sky:
I know, to die—to part, will cloud The brightest spirit o'er; And yet, wouldst thou for ever weep, When he can weep no more?
Fix not thy sight, so long and fast, Upon the shroud's despair; Look upward unto Zion's hill, For death was also there! And think, ' The death, the scourge, the scorn, My sinless Saviour bore— The curse—the pang, too deep for tears— That I should weep no more!'
# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Dock

See also Dock on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​DOCK, a word applied to (1) a plant (see below), (2) an artificial basin for ships (see below), (3) the fleshy solid part of an animal’s tail, and (4) the railed-in enclosure in which a prisoner is placed in court at his trial. Dock (1) in O.E. is docce, represented by Ger. Dockea-blatter, O.Fr. docque, Gael. dogha; Skeat compares Gr. δαῦκος, a kind of parsnip. Dock (2) appears in Dutch (dok) and English in the 16th century; thence it was adopted into other languages. It has been connected with Med. Lat. doga, cap, Gr. δοχή, receptacle, from δέχεσθαι, to receive. Dock (3), especially used of a horse or dog, appears in English in the 14th century; a parallel is found in Icel. docke, stumpy tail, and Ger. Docke, bundle, skein, is also connected with it. This word has given the verb “to dock,” to cut short, curtail, especially used of the shortening of an animal’s tail by severing one or more of the vertebrae. The English Kennel Club (Rules, 1905, revised 1907) disqualifies from prize-winning dogs whose tails have been docked; several breeds are, however, excepted, e.g. varieties of terriers and spaniels, poodles, &c., and such foreign dogs as may from time to time be determined by the club. The prisoners’ dock (4) is apparently to be referred to Flem. dok, pen or hutch. It was probably first used in thieves’ slang; according to the New English Dictionary it was known after 1610 in “bail-dock,” a room at the corner of the Old Bailey left open at the top, “in which during the trials are put some of the malefactors” (Scots. Mag., 1753).
# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Dock Warrant

See also Dock warrant on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​DOCK WARRANT, in law, a document by which the owner of a marine or river dock certifies that the holder is entitled to goods imported and warehoused in the docks. In the Factors Act 1889 it is included in the phrase “document of title” and is defined as any document or writing, being evidence of the title of any person therein named . . . to the property in any goods or merchandise lying in any warehouse or wharf and signed or certified by the person having the custody of the goods. It passes by indorsement and delivery and transfers the absolute right to the goods described in it. A dock warrant is liable to a stamp duty of threepence, which may be denoted by an adhesive stamp, to be cancelled by the person by whom the instrument is executed or issued.
# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Docket

See also Docket (court) on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​DOCKET (perhaps from “dock,” to curtail or cut short, with the diminutive suffix et, but the origin of the word is obscure; it has come into use since the 15th century), in law, a brief summary or digest of a case, or a memorandum of legal decisions; also the alphabetical list of cases down for trial, or of suits pending. Such cases are said to be “on the docket.” In commercial use, a docket is a warrant from the custom-house, stating that the duty on goods entered has been paid, or the label fastened to goods, showing their destination, value, contents, &c., and, generally, any indorsement on the back of a document, briefly setting out its contents.

​DOBSINA (Ger. Dobschau), a town of Hungary, 165 m. N.E. of Budapest by rail. Pop. (1900) 5109. It is situated in the county of Gömör, at the foot of the Radzim (3200 ft. high) in the central Carpathians, and lies to the south of the beautiful Straczena valley, watered by the river Göllnitz, and enclosed on all sides by mountains. In the vicinity are mines of iron, cobalt, copper and mercury, some of them being very ancient. But the most remarkable feature is a large cavern some 33/4 m. N.W., in which is an icefield nearly 2 acres in extent, containing formations which are at once most curious and strikingly beautiful. This cavern, which lies in the above-mentioned Straczena valley, was discovered in 1870. The place was founded in the first half of the 14th century by German miners.
# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Dobson, William

See also William Dobson on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​DOBSON, WILLIAM (1610–1646), English portrait and historical painter, was born in London. His father was master of the alienation office, but by improvidence had fallen into reduced circumstances. The son was accordingly bound an apprentice to a stationer and picture dealer in Holborn Bridge; and while in his employment he began to copy the pictures of Titian and Van Dyck. He also took portraits from life under the advice and instruction of Francis Cleyn, a German artist of considerable repute. Van Dyck, happening to pass a shop in Snow Hill where one of Dobson’s pictures was exposed, sought out the artist, and presented him to Charles I., who took Dobson under his protection, and not only sat to him several times for his own portrait, but caused the prince of Wales, Prince Rupert and many others to do the same. The king had a high opinion of his artistic ability, styled him the English Tintoretto, and appointed him serjeant-painter on the death of Van Dyck. After the fall of Charles, Dobson was reduced to great poverty, and fell into dissolute habits. He died at the early age of thirty-six. Excellent examples of Dobson’s portraits are to be seen at Blenheim, Chatsworth and several other country seats throughout England. The head in the “Decollation of St John the Baptist” at Wilton is said to be a portrait of Prince Rupert.

# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Dock (plant)

See also Rumex on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​DOCK, in botany, the name applied to the plants constituting the section Lapathum of the genus Rumex, natural order Polygonaceae. They are biennial or perennial herbs with a stout root-stock, and glabrous linear-lanceolate or oblong-lanceolate leaves with a rounded, obtuse or hollowed base and a more or less wavy or crisped margin. The flowers are arranged in more or less crowded whorls, the whole forming a denser or looser panicle; they are generally perfect, with six sepals, six stamens and a three-sided ovary bearing three styles with much-divided stigmas. The fruit is a triangular nut enveloped in the three enlarged leathery inner sepals, one or all of which bear a tubercle. In the common or broad-leaved dock, Rumex obtusifolius, the flower-stem is erect, branching, and 18 in. to 3 ft. high, with large radical leaves, heart-shaped at the base, and more or less blunt; the other leaves are more pointed, and have shorter stalks. The whorls are many-flowered, close to the stem and mostly leafless. The root is many-headed, black externally and yellow within. The flowers appear from June to August. In autumn the whole plant may become of a bright red colour. It is a troublesome weed, common by roadsides and in fields, pastures and waste places throughout Europe. The great water dock, R. hydrolapathum, believed to be the herba britannica of Pliny (Nat. Hist. xxv. 6), is a tall-growing species; its root is used as an antiscorbutic. Other British species are R. crispus; R. conglomeratus, the root of which has been employed in dyeing; R. sanguineus (bloody dock, or bloodwort); R. palustris; R. pulcher (fiddle dock), with fiddle-shaped leaves; R. maritimus; R. aquaticus; R. pratensis. The naturalized species, R. alpinus, or “monk’s rhubarb,” was early cultivated in Great Britain, and was accounted an excellent remedy for ague, but, like many other such drugs, is now discarded.
# Presidential Radio Address - 30 March 2002

Weekly radio address delivered on March 30, 2002.
THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. Almost seven months have passed since the attack on our country, and the shock and sadness of that day are still with us. For many, the grief and sense of loss will never fully pass, and they are in our thoughts, especially in this holy season.
The entire world is reminded again this week of the hope that lives and endures forever. For Jews and Christians, this is a time of joy and renewal. Passover celebrates the deliverance of the Jewish people from oppression by the hand of a faithful God. And tomorrow, Easter Sunday, many Christians will celebrate a hope that overcomes even death.
These holy days represent some of the most profound hopes of humanity, which are shared in many traditions. We feel our reliance on the Creator who made us. We place our sorrows and cares before Him, seeking God's mercy. We ask forgiveness for our failures, seeking the renewal He can bring.
Americans practice different faiths in churches, synagogues, mosques and temples. And many good people practice no faith at all. For those who observe Easter and Passover, faith brings confidence that failure is never final, and suffering is temporary, and the pains of the Earth will be overcome. We can be confident, too, that evil may be present and it may be strong, but it will not prevail.
On September the 11th, a terrible evil was done to our country. America and the civilized world are now joined together in a great struggle against enemies who have no regard for innocent life. Grave challenges and dangers face us in this war. We cannot predict every turn ahead of us. Yet in this season, we are assured that history is of moral design.
Justice and cruelty have always been at war, and God is not neutral between them. His purposes are often defied, but never defeated.
I hope that this holy season will bring renewal of faith to those who seek it, and comfort to those who need it. And to all who observe these special days, I wish you a joyful Easter and a blessed Passover.
Thank you for listening.

# Presidential Radio Address - 30 November 2002

Weekly radio address delivered on November 30, 2002.
THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. This week all across America we gather with the people we love to give thanks for the blessings in our lives. Each family has its own traditions, yet we are united as a nation in setting aside a day of gratitude. We are grateful for the freedoms we enjoy, grateful for the loved ones who give meaning to our lives, and grateful for the many gifts of this prosperous land. On Thanksgiving we acknowledge that all of these things, and life itself, come not from the hand of man, but from Almighty God.
The blessings we have received take on special meaning in this time of challenge for our country. Over the last year millions of Americans have found renewed appreciation for our liberty and for the men and women who serve in its defense. We have held our family and our friends closer, spending more time together, and letting them know we love them.
Taking time to count our own blessings reminds us that many people struggle every day -- men, women, and children facing hunger, homelessness, illness, addiction, or despair. These are not strangers. They are fellow Americans needing comfort, love, and compassion. I ask all Americans to consider how you can give someone in need a reason to be thankful in this holiday season and throughout the year.
It's easy to get started and to have an immediate impact. Volunteering your time at a soup kitchen, teaching a child to read, visiting a patient in the hospital, or taking a meal to an elderly neighbor or a shut-in are all simple acts of compassion that can brighten someone's life. Every act of love and generosity, however small it may seem, is significant. Every time you reach out to a neighbor in need you touch a life, you improve your community, and you strengthen our nation.
Earlier this year I created the USA Freedom Corps office in the White House to harness the power of millions of acts of charity, compassion, and love to make America a better place. I hope you'll consider joining the armies of compassion, and dedicating time and energy and service to others. I'm so proud of the millions of Americans who have answered the call to service, enriching the lives of others with acts of kindness. It is a testament to the good heart and the giving spirit of the American people.
There's no better time than this season of Thanksgiving to renew our commitment to helping those in need. The USA Freedom Corp website -- USAFreedomCorp.gov -- is a wonderful place to get started. This resource offers valuable information about service opportunities in your home town, across America, an around the world. You can also get information by calling 1-877-USA-CORPS.
Take the time to find out how you can help your fellow Americans and make this holiday season a season of service.
Happy Thanksgiving and thank you for listening.

See also John Hacket on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​HACKET, JOHN (1592–1670), bishop of Lichfield and Coventry, was born in London and educated at Westminster and Trinity College, Cambridge. On taking his degree he was elected a fellow of his college, and soon afterwards wrote the comedy of Loiola (London, 1648), which was twice performed before James I. He was ordained in 1618, and through the influence of John Williams (1582–1650) became rector in 1621 of Stoke Hammond, Bucks, and Kirkby Underwood, Lincolnshire. In 1623 he was chaplain to James, and in 1624 Williams presented him to the livings of St Andrew’s, Holborn, and Cheam, Surrey. When the so-called “root-and-branch bill” was before parliament in 1641, Hacket was selected to plead in the House of Commons for the continuance of cathedral establishments. In 1645 his living of St Andrew’s was sequestered, but he was allowed to retain the rectory of Cheam. On the accession of Charles II. his fortunes improved; he frequently preached before the king, and in 1661 was consecrated bishop of Lichfield and Coventry. His best-known book is the excellent biography of his patron, Archbishop Williams, entitled Scrinia reserata: a Memorial offered to the great Deservings of John Williams, D.D. (London, 1693).
# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Hackberry

See also Celtis on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​HACKBERRY, a name given to the fruit of Celtis occidentalis, belonging to the natural botanical order Ulmaceae, to which also belongs the elm (Ulmus). It is also known under the name of “sugar-berry,” “beaver-wood” and “nettle-tree.” The hackberry tree is of middle size, attaining from 60 to 80 ft. in height (though sometimes reaching 130 ft.), and with the aspect of an elm. The leaves are ovate in shape, with a very long taper point, rounded and usually very oblique at the base, usually glabrous above and soft-pubescent beneath. The soft filmy flowers appear early in the spring before the expansion of the leaves. The fruit is oblong, about half to three-quarters of an inch long, of a reddish or yellowish colour when young, turning to a dark purple in autumn. This tree is distributed through the deep shady forests bordering river banks from Canada (where it is very rare) to the southern states. The fruit has a sweetish and slightly astringent taste, and is largely eaten in the United States. The seeds contain an oil like that of almonds. The bark is tough and fibrous like hemp, and the wood is heavy, soft, fragile and coarse-grained, and is used for making fences and furniture. The root has been used as a dye for linens.

​HACKETT, HORATIO BALCH (1808–1875), American biblical scholar, was born in Salisbury, Massachusetts, on the 27th of December 1808. He was educated at Phillips-Andover Academy, at Amherst College, where he graduated as valedictorian in 1830, and at Andover Theological Seminary, where he graduated in 1834. He was adjunct professor of Latin and Greek Languages and Literature at Brown University in 1835–1838 and professor of Hebrew Literature there in 1838–1839, was ordained to the Baptist ministry in 1839—he had become a Baptist at Andover as the result of preparing a paper on baptism in the New Testament and the Fathers—and in 1839–1868 he was professor of ​Biblical literature and interpretation in Newton Theological Institution where his most important work was the introduction of the modern German methods of Biblical criticism, which he had learned from Moses Stuart at Andover and with which he made himself more familiar in Germany (especially under Tholuck at Halle) in 1841. He travelled in Egypt and Palestine in 1852, and in 1858–1859 in Greece, becoming proficient in modern Greek. From 1870 until his death in Rochester, New York, on the 2nd of November 1875, he was professor of Biblical literature and New Testament exegesis in the Rochester Theological Seminary. He was a great teacher but a greater critical and exegetical scholar.
He wrote Christian Memorials of the War (1864); an English version of Winer’s Grammar of the Chaldee Language (1844); Exercises in Hebrew Grammar (1847); and various articles on the Semitic language and literature in periodicals; but his best-known work was in general commentary on the Bible and translation, and in the special text study of the New Testament. Under these two headings fall: Illustrations of Scripture; suggested by a Tour through the Holy Land (1855); the American revision, with Ezra Abbot, of Smith’s Dictionary of the Bible, to the British edition of which he had contributed about thirty articles; Commentary on the Original Text of the Acts of the Apostles (1852; 2nd edition, 1858), for many years the best English commentary; Notes on the Greek Text of the Epistle of Paul to Philemon, and a Revised Version of Philemon, both published in 1860; the English versions, in Schaff’s edition of Lange’s Commentaries, of Van Oosterzee’s Philemon and Braune’s Philippians; and for the American Bible Union Version of the Bible he translated the books of Ruth and Judges, and aided T. J. Conant in editorial revision; and he was one of the American translators for the English Bible revision.
