# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Ehre

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Ehre. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Ehre, feminine, ‘honour,’ from Middle High German êre, Old High German êra, feminine, ‘honour, fame, sense of honour’; corresponds to Old Saxon êra, feminine, ‘honour, protection, pardon, gift,’ Anglo-Saxon âr, feminine, ‘honour, help, pardon’ (ârian, ‘to spare, pardon’), Old Icelandic eir, feminine, ‘pardon, gentleness.’ Gothic *aiza is by chance not recorded; it is probably allied to Gothic ais-tan, ‘to shun, respect,’ which is undoubtedly primitively akin to Latin aes-tumare, ‘to acknowledge, value.’ It is probably connected with the Sanscrit root iš, ‘to desire, seek to obtain.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Ei

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Ei. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Ei, masculine, ‘egg,’ from Middle High German and Old High German eì, neuter, ‘egg’; common to Teutonic with the same meaning, although Gothic *addjis, neuter (compare Old Icelandic egg), is wanting; ada, however, is found in Crimean Gothic. Compare Old Saxon ei, Dutch ei, Anglo-Saxon œ̂g, neuter English egg is borrowed from Scandinavian egg. Between the Teutonic aias (ajjas), neuter, ‘egg,’ and the corresponding terms in the West Aryan languages there is an unmistakable agreement of sound, although the phonetic justification for the comparison has not yet been found; compare Latin óvum (Low Latin *ŏvum, on account of French œuf), Greek ὠόν, Old Slovenian jaje, aje (from the base *êjo-?), Old Irish og, ‘egg.’ Arguing from these cognates, Teutonic ajjas, neuter, has been derived from êwjo-, ôwjo-, and connected with Latin avis, Sanscrit vi, ‘bird.’ In East Aryan no corresponding word is found.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eibisch

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eibisch. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eibisch, masculine, ‘marsh mallow,’ from Middle High German îbische, Old High German îbisca, feminine, ‘marsh mallow, dwarf mallow’; borrowed early from the equivalent Latin ibiscum (Greek ἰβίσκος).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eichhorn

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eichhorn. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eichhorn, neuter, ‘squirrel,’ from the equivalent Middle High German eichorn, Old High German eihhorn (*eicchorn according to Swiss eikχer), but corrupted at an early period by connecting it with Horn. The primitively Teutonic base cannot be discovered with any certainty, since the word has been transformed by popular etymology in all languages. Dutch eekhoren corresponds to the High German form. Anglo-Saxon âc-wern (earlier âcweorna), ‘squirrel,’ is abnormal, and apparently a compound; still more remote is the equivalent Old Icelandic íkorne, from eik, ‘oak, tree.’ The implied Goth (primitively Teutonic) word *aikawaírna (*eikawaírna) seems by its formation to resemble Gothic widuwaírna, Old High German diorna (see Dirne); in that case Anglo-Saxon âcweorna (Old Icelandic íkorne) might be a diminutive of aik (îk?), ‘oak,’ meaning literally ‘little ​oak-animal’?. Compare the diminutive forms Middle Latin squiriolus, Modern High German Eichhörnchen, Old Slovenian vĕverica. On the other hand, some maintain that weorn in Anglo-Saxon âcweorna means ‘tail,’ while others connect it with Latin viverra, derived from a North European word (Lithuanian voverě, Old Slovenian veverica). At all events, since the Teutonic cognates include Old Icelandic, Anglo-Saxon, and Old High German, we need not suppose the word was borrowed from a Southern Romance term; Latin sciûrus (Greek σκίουρος), French ecureuil, Spanish esquilo (Middle Latin squiriolus) — whence English squirrel — are too remote in sound from the Teutonic words. There is no reason for assuming that the Teutonic word was borrowed from another source.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eid

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eid. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eid, masculine, ‘oath, execration,’ from the equivalent Middle High German eit(d), Old High German eid, masculine; a word common to Teutonic, but not found in the other groups; Gothic aiþs, Old Icelandic eiðr, Anglo-Saxon âþ, English oath, Dutch eed, Old Saxon éth, masculine; for the common Teutonic aiþa-z, from pre-Teutonic ói-to-s (compare Old Irish oeth, ‘oath’), no suitable cognate has yet been found. Ehe and its cognates are scarcely allied to it, though Eidam may be so.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eidam

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eidam. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eidam, masculine, ‘son-in-law,’ from Middle High German eidem, masculine, ‘son-in-law,’ also ‘father-in-law’ (compare Vetter, Schwager, Base, Neffe, with regard to the fluctuating meaning), Old High German eidum, ‘son-in-law’; corresponds to Anglo-Saxon âðum, Old Frisian âthum, ‘son-in-law.’ Gothic *aiþmus (?) is wanting, the word mêgs (see Mage) being used. This merely West Teutonic term, the derivation of which appears to be similar to that of Oheim, is connected with Middle High German eide, Old High German eidî, Gothic aiþei, ‘mother.’ It is not impossible that it may be allied to Eid also; compare English son-in-law. In Suabian and Alemannian Eidam is unknown, the word used being Tochtermann.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Ehni

​ Ehni, see Ahn.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eibe

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eibe. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eibe, feminine, ‘yew,’ from the equivalent Middle High German îwe, Old High German îwa, feminine (Middle High German also ‘a yew-tree bow’); compare the corresponding Anglo-Saxon îw, eów, English yew, and Old Icelandic ýr, masculine, ‘yew’ (and ‘bow’). Gothic *eiws is by chance not recorded. Swiss îche, îge, Old High German îha, Old Low German îch, Anglo-Saxon eoh, prove that the word had originally a medial guttural; hence the primary form Gothic *eihwa?. From the Teutonic word, Middle Latin îvus, French if, Spanish iva, ‘yew,’ are derived. The relation of Old High German îwa, îha, Anglo-Saxon îw, eoh, to Old Irish éo, Welsh yw, ‘yew’ (Lithuanian jëvà, ‘bird-cherry tree,’ Old Slovenian iva, ‘willows’), has yet to be determined.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eiche

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eiche. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eiche, feminine, ‘oak, oak-tree,’ from the equivalent Middle High German eich, Old High German eih (hh), feminine; a term common to Teutonic, but by chance not recorded in Gothic (*aiks, feminine); compare Dutch eek (eik), Anglo-Saxon âc, feminine, English oak. In Iceland, where there are no trees, the old word eik, feminine, received the general meaning ‘tree’ (for a similar change of meaning see Esche, Föhre, Tanne; compare Greek δρῦς, ‘oak, tree (generally).’ The term aik- is peculiar to Teutonic; whether it is connected with Old Icelandic eikenn, adjective ‘wild,’ and with the Sanscrit root êj, ‘to shake,’ is undecided.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Eichel

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Eichel. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Eichel, feminine, from the equivalent Middle High German eichel, Old High German eihhila, ‘acorn, fruit of the oak’ (corresponding to Dutch eikel). The form was originally a diminutive of Eiche, ‘the offspring of the oak,’ as it were; the derivative is wanting in English and Scandinavian. Eckern, Modern High German, is not a cognate. —

# Americans Feel Less Safe

AMERICANS FEEL LESS SAFE
HON. LAMAR SMITH
OF TEXAS IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Wednesday, February 3, 2010
Mr. SMITH of Texas. Madam Speaker, recent polls show that the public is very concerned with the Obama administration's handling of national security.
The latest Investor's Business Daily poll findings show that Americans believe President Obama's policies are soft on terror. The percentage of Americans who feel safe has declined significantly--from 82 percent a year ago, to 67 percent this month.
Additionally, the Pew Research Center recently released findings showing terrorism is the third most important issue to American voters, after jobs and the economy.
This is due in part to the mishandling of the Christmas Day terrorist attempt. Instead of gaining valuable intelligence, Abdulmutallab was given Miranda rights, a move that 61 percent of Americans disagree with. Additionally, Americans continue to overwhelmingly oppose closing Gitmo 2-to-1.
It is clear President Obama's policies have made Americans less safe. And according to the polls, the American people know it.
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it is a work of the United States federal government (see 17 U.S.C. 105).

# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/To —— : As soldiers from the ramparts of a town

XII.
TO ———.
As soldiers from the ramparts of a town O'erlooking fields where they have lately striven, Tell from what points to what the foe was driven, And where at length decisively o'erthrown; So pacing the clear battlements of Heaven, Hope tells how we may one day looking down Point out where such and such a grace was given, And where at length the beatific crown. O Friend, what jubilant outcry will go forth Among the stars when we this place espy Where (God's best gift!) we first received each other: O fellow Soul! O brother more than brother! May some be listening then upon the earth To catch the admonition of that cry!
# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/Verses Written in the Boboli Gardens at Florence

VERSES WRITTEN IN THE BOBOLI GARDENS AT FLORENCE.
Bright pomp of mingled vale and mound! Fair walks and alleys green! —Yet let me go where humbler ground Lets Nature's will be seen.
We imitate—'tis wisely done, Yet ofttimes do we find, With all her features fairly won, We have not caught her mind.
For she hath meanings, though unseen; In wisdom and in love, She spreads her placid sheets of green, Or knits the boughs above.
In wood and wold, in field and lane, She walks, a blameless Muse; Still busy something to restrain, And something to infuse.
Florence,
# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/To the Pines of the Cascine at Florence, January 1840

TO THE PINES OF THE CASCINE AT FLORENCE. January, 1840.
Sweet is your shade in summer heat, Your screening boughs in winter sweet! Bright are ye, noble trees! beside Your thickets Arno loves to glide, A river silent in his pride, —A lively creature from his source He springs, and noisy as a horse Flings up the pebbles as he strides Adown the clamouring mountain sides; But silent as a brooding dove He glides beside this cheerful grove; Nor calmed by years, but by the weight Of memories terrible and great Made silent and deliberate.
And thou too, Florence!—not too much Hast thou received from grateful Fame.
Thy slave, if e'er the Power were such To aught of mortal birth that came. Faint as a city of the air In seeming, delicately fair In colour as the flowers of Spring, Thou risest, an enchanted thing, A pomp—a play-work of the cloud To which the hills this lovely plain Spread out, scarce hoping to retain! Silent, yet longing to rejoice aloud!
Fair all the scene in which I stand; I sing—so Fancy doth command; —But I am in a foreign land.
# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/To ——

TO ———
A Hero's bride, by Nature made! — Yet rather who hath stood, And with a hero's soul obeyed A vision pure of blood.
Ah me! what bliss—if it could be— Acknowledged by thy love, To breast the world below with thee, To scale the world above!
Ah me! from lower cares of earth By such a mate redeemed, What I have hoped, to body forth, To do what I have dreamed!
O for a soul by thee imbued With energies severe, To hold the faith in fortitude, Until the darkness clear.
What were a life, thou looking on! The dagger of thy tear The goad,—a smile of thine the crown Of the immense career!
O rather for the gloomy days Of ordinary life, Enlightened by thy love, thy praise, A sympathising wife:
By the pure privilege of love The inner strife to see, When angels bring from realms above Some tear-crowned victory;
Or,—milder bliss—in some green nook While summer suns decline, To read some pure and peaceful book, Her eyelight mixed with mine!
# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/To —— : Like an unused Spectator, who in fear

X.
TO ———.
Like an unused Spectator, who in fear Stands midst some enginery, where wheel and chain Flame ceaselessly and axles vast complain, Terror to the eye and to the shrinking ear, So in some thoughtful hours may we stand here, While Time takes voice, and shrieking as in pain Fly hour and day, and many a shock and strain Torments the awful spindle of the Year. O Friend, with terror—with consuming dread I listen: but thy blessed voice I drink Joyful in holy hope, and calm is spread Upon my soul, and beyond Time I dare To look, and of myself and thee to think, Twin Angels sailing through celestial air!
# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/To an Idiot Child

TO AN IDIOT CHILD.
Sweet Child! what light is in those eyes? Like islands bright in sunset skies, Ablaze with glory overweening Yet cold—alive, yet dead of meaning! Two goats upon the rocks at play Not wilder as they climb and leap; Yet torpid in their sense are they As awful mountain lakes that sleep Far deepening downward from the day, To caves a thousand fathoms deep!
Child of love, what hath become Of thy sweet tongue?—would it were dumb! —That now doth boisterously climb Along the fragmentary rhyme, Years back within thine infant ear Lodged lightly—thus to re-appear,
Thus, as a vague deceitful Muse Its melody may re-infuse Into a heart that hath declined From the pure guidance of the mind. O limbs, whose life is it ye live? Which now no more your service give To a considerant human soul! Is it the wind which doth control This graceful twining of your play? Or do mild spirits, gently gay, Thus prompt your motions to obey The self-same impulse which persuades The woodbine, deep in oaken shades, Her sturdy pillar to embrace With movements of such matchless grace Or bids the skylark, of pure sound Extracted from the dewy ground While morning yet is all divine, About the fleeing stars entwine, In modulations soft as strong, The bright inevitable line Of its elastic song?
Poor Child! when Fancy's all is said, What art thou but a creature dead,— Dead to the real life of life,
The spiritual stir—the strife Ineffable of soul and sense! Yet mayst thou live without offence; And thou, poor Child, in memory A monument shalt stand to me (With many a gem and many a flower, And many a cloudlet of the sky), Of God's surpassing love and power, Who, speaking only to the eye, Can carry with an inward smart A voiceless meaning; to the heart.
# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/To the Cuckoo in Spring

TO THE CUCKOO IN SPRING.
O Solitary of the Spring, Why still, this heavenly morn, Must thou of future glories sing, And blessings to be born?
O cease, thou tedious Prophet, cease! Here let the heart delay, And taste a moment's perfect peace Before it pass away!
—Still louder and with louder glee The Cuckoo preached he bolder, Of something better yet to be When Time should be yet older.
# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/To the Statue Entitled "L'Esperance."

IX. TO THE STATUE ENTITLED "L'ESPERANCE." (IN THE LOUVRE.)
Statue! thy sculptor's holiest thought in stone! Thee ere the purity of morning broke, Day after day he wrought with noiseless stroke, Pure as a Flower by silent Nature sown! And (I may guess unblamed) that starry crown Upon thy heavenly brow he fixed sublime In rapture caught—ere Fancy's self had time The happy thought to own or to disown. Here rule—yet in thy right, nor let the Earth Claim loveliness she never yet hath given; Not Hope art thou, still as the desert Palm Entranced at noon; Hope trembles—for her birth Is of the mutable. Thou art a child of Heaven, Not Hope, but Faith angelically calm.
# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/To the Revered Memory of Thomas Arnold, D.D.

IV. TO THE REVERED MEMORY OF THOMAS ARNOLD, D.D.
Yes, noble Arnold, thou didst well to die! Needed but this, that the dark earth should hide The seed, to have the harvest far and wide. Long (with a voice that echoed in the sky) Didst thou pour forth thy fervent prophecy: Vain Seer!—for thou amongst us didst abide;— This world was then thy country;—at our side Thou spak'st scarce heard. But now thou art on high Among the Immortal and Invisible Quire, And straight like thunder (silent till the fire Which caused it dies), thy soul's majestic voice Is rolling o'er the wonder-smitten land; And Truth, that sate in drought, dares to rejoice, Marking that all admire, some understand.
# Ambarvalia/Burbidge/To the Same, June, 1848

TO THE SAME. June, 1848.
Once before this, ye sovran pines, When with a mighty wave ye swung, A thousand to one impulse flung Adown one wind, in trembling lines Your might I honoured, feebly sung
Again, but not as then, I lift My voice in honour of your might; More bold than then—thro' wrong or right— I walk the world, and through the drift Of darkness seem to see the light.
Yes, sweet is home, and sweet is love, And pity is the right of boys, How weak soe'er! but he employs My praise, him now I best approve Who makes the happiness he enjoys.
O sovran trees! in summer heat, In winter storms ye brightly shine; With no self-discord ye repine, But tread your trial beneath your feet; As you tread yours, will I tread mine!
