# Mimnermus in Church

You promise heavens free from strife,  Pure truth, and perfect change of will;
But sweet, sweet is this human life,
 So sweet, I fain would breathe it still;
Your chilly stars I can forgo, This warm kind world is all I know.
You say there is no substance here,
 One great reality above:
Back from that void I shrink in fear,
 And child-like hide myself in love: Show me what angels feel. Till then
I cling, a mere weak man, to men.
  You bid me lift my mean desires
 From faltering lips and fitful veins
To sexless souls, ideal quires,  Unwearied voices, wordless strains:
My mind with fonder welcome owns
One dear dead friend's remember'd tones.
  Forsooth the present we must give
 To that which cannot pass away; All beauteous things for which we live
 By laws of time and space decay.
But O, the very reason why
I clasp them, is because they die.

# Michigan v. Lucas/Concurrence Blackmun

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
* Concurring Opinion Blackmun
* Dissenting Opinion Stevens
Justice BLACKMUN, concurring in the judgment.
I concur in the judgment. I write separately because I was among those who dissented in Taylor v. Illinois, 484 U.S. 400 , 108 S.Ct. 646, 98 L.Ed.2d 798 (1988), where the Court's majority rejected the argument that the Sixth Amendment prohibits the preclusion of otherwise admissible evidence as a sanction for the violation of a reciprocal-discovery rule.
In a separate dissent in Taylor, id., at 438, 108 S.Ct., at 667-68, I specifically reserved judgment on the type of question presented in this case—whether preclusion might be a permissible sanction for noncompliance with a rule designed for a specific kind of evidence—based on my belief that the rule may embody legitimate state interests that differ substantially from the truth-seeking interest underlying a reciprocal-discovery rule. In my view, if the sanction of preclusion can be implemented to further those interests without unduly distorting the truth-seeking process, the Sixth Amendment does not prohibit the sanction's use.
The notice-and-hearing requirement adopted by the State of Michigan represents, as respondent Lucas does not deny, "a valid legislative determination that rape victims deserve heightened protection against surprise, harassment, and unnecessary invasions of privacy." Ante, at 150. In addition, a notice-and-hearing requirement is specifically designed to minimize trial delay by providing the trial court an opportunity to rule on the admissibility of the proffered evidence in advance of trial. Finally, as with a notice-of-alibi rule, the notice requirement in this Michigan statute represents a legislative attempt to identify a kind of evidence—evidence of past sexual conduct—with respect to which credibility determinations are likely to be dispositive, and to permit (or perhaps compel) the defendant and the State to gather and preserve evidence and testimony soon after the alleged offense, when memories of witnesses are fresh and vivid. It seems clear that these interests, unlike the State's interest in truthseeking, may in some cases be advanced by imposition of the sanction of preclusion, and that the sanction therefore would not constitute an arbitrary response to the failure to comply. See Rock v. Arkansas, 483 U.S. 44 , 56, 107 S.Ct. 2704, 2711, 97 L.Ed.2d 37 (1987).
Of course, the State's interest in the full and truthful disclosure of critical facts remains of paramount concern in the criminal-trial process, and it may be that, in most cases, preclusion will be "disproportionate to the purposes [the rule is] designed to serve." Ibid. Nonetheless, I agree with the Court that failure to comply with the notice-and-hearing requirement of Michigan's rape-shield statute "may in some cases justify even the severe sanction of preclusion." Ante, at 153.

# Men of Kent and Kentishmen/Charles Brooking

Layout 2
Charles Brooking,
PAINTER,
Was, if not born in Kent, bred in some department in the Dockyard at Deptford. He was a friend of Dominic Serres. "He painted sea-views and sea-fights, which shewed an extensive knowledge of naval tactics; his colour was bright and clear, his water pellucid, his manner broad and spirited." A specimen of his style may be seen in the Foundling Hospital, and numerous engravings have been taken of his works. He died in poverty, in 1759, in his thirty-sixth year.

Christopher Marlowe,
DRAMATIST,
Was born in 1564, in Canterbury, where his father, John Marlowe, is said to have been a shoemaker, holding also the office of parish clerk. Christopher was educated at the King's School, and sent to Benet College, Cambridge, where he graduated M.A. in 1587. Before this he produced his play "Tamburlaine the Great," the first tragedy worthy of that name in the language. This was successively followed by "Dr. Faustus," "The Jew of Malta," "Edward II," and the "Massacre of Paris." The tragedy of "Dido, Queen of Carthage," was published after his ​death. Very little is known of the personal life of Marlowe. At some portion of his short life he is said to have been an actor, and to have broken his leg in the practice of his profession. But for this and other traditions there is very little reliable evidence. The only authentic record of his death is in the Church of St. Nicholas, Deptford, where is an entry in the Register:—"Christopher Marlowe, slain by Francis Archer, June 1st, 1593." Francis Archer is said to have been a "serving man," of bad character, with whom the poet engaged in a tavern brawl. So perished, at the early age of twenty-nine, one who may be considered as the father of English tragedy, and the fore-runner of Shakespeare. Besides his tragedies, he produced "The Passionate Shepherd," "one of the most faultless lyrics in the whole range of descriptive and fanciful poetry."

Cristopher Smart,
POET,
Was born at Shipbourne in 1722, and educated at Maidstone and Cambridge. He cultivated poetry, and produced a translation into Latin of the Ode to St. Cecilia, of Pope, much praised by that poet, who caused him to undertake a similar translation of his Essay on Criticism." He also published a translation of "Horace" and of "Phædrus," a version of the Psalms and the Parables in verse, a satire entitled "The Hilliad" (against Sir John Hill), and other pieces, all of which were collected and published in 1791. Though the friend of Johnson, Garrick, and others, his literary efforts were unsuccessful, and the embarrassment of his circumstances brought on derangement and melancholy. He died in 1770.

# Men of Kent and Kentishmen/Bridget of Eltham

Layout 2
Bridget of Eltham,
Was the fourth daughter of Edward IV. and his queen Elizabeth. She was born at the palace at Eltham (which her father had almost rebuilt) Nov. 10th, 1480. "Observing," says Fuller, "her three eldest sisters not over happy in their husbands, she resolved to wed a monastical life, and (no whit ambitious of the place of an Abbess,) became an ordinary votary in the Nunnery at Dartford, founded by King Edward III." On this account she is commonly known as the "Nun of Dartford." She died in the year 1517.

Cuthbert Aket (or Hacket),
Lord Mayor of London,
Was born, according to Fuller, at Dartford, though according to Stowe, it was his father Thomas who came from there. He was a member of the Drapers' ​Company. He was Sheriff of London in 1622, and Lord Mayor in 1626. He lies buried in the Church of St. Martin Vintry.

Charles Mills,
HISTORIAN,
Was the son of a physician at Greenwich, where he was born in 1788. He served his time as clerk to a solicitor in Lincoln's Inn, but he relinquished his legal pursuits for literature. In 1817 he published a "History of Mahommedanism," which was followed in 1819 by a "History of the Crusades," "The Travels of Theodore Ducas" (a voyage imaginaire, like that of Anarcharsis), and a "History of Chivalry." The works give evidence of much talent, taste, and learning, but are now so little known that a modern writer asks—"Who was Charles Mills?" and replies to the question, "I answer, many a worse man, many a writer with one-third of his knowledge has lived and does live; whilst he is chiefly to be found in a dusty back room ​(i.e., his remains) at Messrs. Longman's, Paternoster Row. Admirable, neglected works!" He died in 1825.
