​Chapter XII. The History of the Blessed Benjamin
AND there was also in the mountain of Nitria a marvellous man whose name was Benjamin, who attained to a high state of perfection in the ascetic life, for he had fasted and toiled for eighty years. Now he was held to be worthy of the gift of the craft of the physician, and from every wound (or stripe) upon which he laid his hand, and which Christ blessed or gave [him the power to heal], straightway every pain departed. And this man, who was worthy of such a gift, collected water in his body for eight months before his death, and he was so much swollen that he might well have been called a second Job. And Dioscurus took us, that is to say, the blessed Origen and myself, and said unto us, “Come ye and see a new Job, who whilst [suffering from] such a severe disease of the body as this healeth others.” And Benjamin gave thanks concerning his affliction beyond measure, and glorified God continually, and his soul rejoiced and was glad in the hope which it laid up for the saints. Now when we had gone and seen the swelling of his body we found ​that it had become so large that a man could not with all his hand encircle one of his fingers; and being unable to look upon such a terrible affliction through disease we turned away our eyes. Then the blessed man Benjamin said unto us, “My sons, pray that the inner man may not collect water. Even when this my body was in health it in no wise helped me, and now that it is sick it in no wise hindereth me.” Now during the [last] eight months of his illness they made a broad chair for him, and he used to sit therein always, because he was not able to lie down upon a bed by reason of the necessity of his belly and of the other [members of his] body. And whilst he himself lived in such suffering through all his affliction he was healing others, and it is for this reason that I am compelled to narrate to you concerning the affliction of this righteous man, so that when such an affliction as this happeneth unto the righteous we may not hold the matter to be hard. Now when this blessed man died, the whole of the framework of the doorway had to be removed to enable them to bring out his body from his cell, for his body was very large indeed.

​Chapter xiii. The History of Apollonius the Merchant
AND again another man, whose name was Apollonius, used to dwell in this Mount Nitria; and he was a merchant who had come there to learn to lead the life and conversation of an anchorite. Now this man found no handicraft at the exercise of which he could employ himself, and he could neither fast nor keep vigil like the other ascetics to any great extent. During the twenty years which he lived in this mountain it was his rule of life and triumph that by his own labour and toil he used to buy from Alexandria everything which was required by the brethren, and the things which were needed for the healing of the sick, and carry them to the sick. And it was a marvellous thing to see him going about among the monasteries and cells of the brethren each day, from the earliest dawn, when he set out, until the ninth hour, and he used to stand by the door and say, “Is there, peradventure, anyone sick here?” And he carried about pomegranates, and dried cakes, and raisins, and eggs, and the things which are necessary for the sick. Now he found this rule of life easy to acquire, and to continue until his old age, and he was able to attend to the affairs of the five thousand brethren who were dwelling in the mountain. And when he died he left whatever he had unto another man like unto himself, and he begged him to carry out this ministration, because the [place where the monks lived] was a desert and was destitute of the things of the world.
# The Sentiment of the Sword/Foreword

THE MANUSCRIPT of the following Dialogue was entrusted to me by the late Lady Burton some time after Sir Richard Burton's death in 1890, together with the notes ajid memoranda he left for the continuation of his Book of the Sword. It will, I hope, be of interest as the work of one of the greatest travellers, finest sportsmen, and strongest personali- ties of the Victorian era; but it will appeal more especially to lovers of the sword and foil, who have increased so vastly in numbers since Burton wrote. For it contains the matured opinions upon the art and methods of offence and defence in England and on the Continent of one who was throughout his life an ardent student of the theory, and an acknowledged master of the practice, of the art of swordsmanship.
We have Burton's own statement (Life, Vol. I., p. 134) that he began his long practice with the sword seriously at the age of twelve, sometimes taking three lessons a day, and he never missed an opportunity of studying the fencing or fighting methods of whatever country he was in, savage or civilised. In 1850, at the age of twenty-eight, he was devoting himself to fencing at Boulogne. " To this day," writes his widow, " the Burton une-deux, and notably the manchette (the upward slash disabling the sword arm and saving life in affairs of honour), are remembered; they earned him his brevet de pointe for the excellence of his swordsmanship, and he became a maitre d'armes." This diploma he placed after his name upon the title page of his Book of the Sword. In 1853 he published A Complete System of Bayonet Exercise, which, at first pigeonholed at tho War Office, was subsequently adopted in the army.
Burton's original title for his work was " The Secrets of the Sword," suggested by the Baron de Bazancourt's volume Les Secrets de VEpee, published in Paris in 1862, from which he quotes freely in the following pages, and so well known in England by Mr C. Felix Clay's fine translation (illustrated by Mr F. H. Townsend), which has forestalled this title here. The one chosen in its place, " The Sentiment of the Sword," perhaps suggests even better to non-fencers Burton's intimate sympathy with and affection for the weapon and its correspondence with his own nature, while to swordsmen and fencers it brings home le sentiment flu fer invented by our "sweet enemy France" for that inner feeling of the foil, that magnetism of the blade, that sense of touch or " tact " which no other expression in any language so happily conveys.
I have ventured to omit a few passages from Burton's work which time has rendered of less lively interest, and have allowed myself the liberty of a few notes where the text seemed to require it, or the title of an early fencing work has been given in full

# The Russian Review/Volume 1/March 1916/In This Hour

In This Hour
By Theodore Sologub.
Translated by P. Leonov.
In this hour, when mighty thunder
Rumbles through the darkened sky;
In this hour, when all our dwellings
Shaken, trembling, craven lie;
In his hour, when anxious worries
With full love and hope are met,
In this hour, when e'en the bravest
Stand with brows so grimly set;
In this hour, strive higher, higher,
Higher, proud and haughty hearts:
Only he can be the victor,
Who from hope and faith ne'er parts,
Only he who trusts so blindly,
Even when all hopes is flown,
Only he who at his Mother Doth not cast reproach's stone.
# The Sky Pilot (1899)

THE SKY PILOT
A TALE OF THE FOOTHILLS
BY
RALPH CONNOR
Author of "Black Rock"
The Westminster Co., Limited Toronto, Canada
Entered according to the Act of Parliament of Canada, in the
year 1899, by the Westminster Company, in the
Office of the Minister of Agriculture
PREFACE
The measure of a man's power to help his brother is the measure of the love in the heart of him and of the faith he has that at last the good will win. With this love that seeks not its own and this faith that grips the heart of things, he goes out to meet many fortunes, but not that of defeat.
This story is of the people of the Foothill Country; of those men of adventurous spirit, who left homes of comfort, often of luxury, because of the stirring in them to be and to do some worthy thing; and of those others who, outcast from their kind, sought to find in these valleys, remote and lonely, a spot where they could forget and be forgotten.
The waving skyline of the Foothills was the boundary of their lookout upon life. Here they dwelt safe from the scanning of the world, freed from all restraints of social law, denied the gentler influences of home and the sweet uplift of a good woman's face. What wonder if, with the ​new freedom beating in their hearts and ears,some rode fierce and hard the wild trail to the cut-bank of destruction!
The story is, too, of how a man with vision beyond the waving skyline came to them with firm purpose to play the brother's part, and by sheer love of them and by faith in them, win them to believe that life is priceless, and that it is good to be a man.

# The Soul Of A Century/Jan Kollar

JAN KOLLAR
(1793–1852)
Jan Kollar, a native of Slovakia, was born July 29, 1793 in Mosovice and died January 24, 1852 in Vienna. Kollar studied at Bratislava and at Jena and entered priesthood in 1819. His interests led Kollar to philology and archeology and in 1849 he was appointed to the chair of Slavonic Antiquities at the University of Vienna. Kollar’s poetic fame rests on his monumental collection of sonnets, published under the title of SLAVY DCERA. Though today we may criticize the contents and structure of this work, its author still remains as the founder of modern Czech poetry.

# The Soul Of A Century/Josef Svatopluk Machar

JOSEF SVATOPLUK MACHAR
(1864–1942)
Joseph Svatopluk Machar, the outstanding Czech realist in poetry was born February 29th, 1864 in Kolin and according to recent advice from London died March 17th, 1942. In the year 1891 Machar left for Vienna where he remained until 1918 as a bank official, who kept lively contacts with the political and literary trends at home. Machar’s stay in Vienna broadened his political and social outlook, and enabled him to gauge all problems with a sounder perspective. Some of Machar’s original works bear marked traces of Vrchlicky’s lyricism, but soon the maturing poet surrenders the neurotic, sceptical eroticism of his early works and embarks upon reflective, philosophical and critical writings that dominate his more mature works. Machar’s poetry is marked by a deep sincerely of thought, a piercing penetration of the restless human soul and a definite deviation from the conventional form of the poetry of his predecessors and contemporaries. In his own evaluation Machar has placed himself as a direct follower of Celakovsky, Havlicek and Neruda, with whom he feels an intellectual and spiritual affinity.

# The Soul Of A Century/Julius Zeyer

JULIUS ZEYER
(1841–1901)
Julius Zeyer represents a truly cosmopolitan literary type whose works show the influence of the French-German-Jewish blood coursing through his veins. Unlike so many other poets Zeyer was born of wealthy parents/ and hod the opportunity of education and travel denied to others. Zeyer was bom in Prague, April 26th, 1841, where he died on January 29th, 1901. It seems that the elegiac beauty of old Prague had a marked influence upon Zeyer, and that under this guidance the deeply impressionistic poet turned consciously away from German and Vienese influences to a deep penetration into the realm of Czech history and philosophy. To offset the prevalent German influence Zeyer reached out into the heroic literature of old France and the Christian nobility found in the pre-Raphaelite literature in Italy. Zeyer is a true aristocrat of art/ who turns away from the grey commonplace of the present to the inspiring glory of historical yesterdays.

# The Soul Of A Century/Karel Hynek Macha

KAREL HYNEK MACHA
(1810–1836)
Karel Hynek Macha may well be called the founder of the Romanticist movement in Czech literature. Macha’s “May” and his unfinished poem “Mnich” (The Monk) show to what extent the young dreamer came under the influence of Byron. Macha was born November 10, 1810, in Prague, where he completed his study of law and then moved to Litomerice, where he died under tragic circumstances November 5, 1836. As usual, the young poet was misunderstood by his contemporaries, who accused him of mimickry in his devotion to the general trend of romanticism. However, later day critics have exhonerated Macha. They have found his works refreshingly original both in the lyrical quality and specifically local color of his work, which blends admirably with traces of the foreign influence. Today Macha stands as one of the recognized founders of modern Czech poetry, whose importance increases with time.

IN NATURE
I am looking, searching for you man, I am peering deep into your well, I want to find your human core And cast away your outer shell.
I am looking for you with the morn, I am picking roses for your day, I am looking for you in the Spring, I am breathing warmth across your way.
I am looking for you in the fields, Gathering pollen on my course. I am looking for you ’neath the oaks And wish that you knew true remorse.
I am looking for you with the bees Collecting honey as your prize, I am looking for you with the birds And bring delight into your eyes.
I am looking for you with a song Within your soul, songs’ true domain. I am looking and I’ll find you when You have become a man again.

# The Soul Of A Century/Jaroslav Vrchlicky

JAROSLAV VRCHLICKY
(1853–1912)
With the appearance of Jaroslav Vrchlicky upon the horizon of Czech literary firmament, the scope of Czech literature leaps suddenly from the narrow local confines to cosmopolitan dimensions and significance. Vrchlicky was born February 16, 1853, and died September 9th, 1912 . At an early age he came under the guidance and influence of his uncle, a theologian, and young Vrchlicky’s first steps almost naturally led to the field of theology. Within six months after entering the theological faculty Vrchlicky made a complete change in his plans and chose philosophy, history and comparative philology for his life’s work. As was the custom of the day, the young philosophy student accepted a tutorship in the family circle of Count Montecuccoli-Laderchi, and was thus enabled to spend a profitable year in Italy. After his return to Prague he accepted a teaching position and remained in several teaching appointments until 1893. In 1892 Vrchlicky was awarded an honorary doctorate of letters at the Charles University, where in 1898 he was appointed to a professorship. Vrchlicky is unquestionably the most profilic, most versatile of the Czech poets, and an outstanding translator of all world literature.

# The Soul Of A Century/Jan Neruda

JAN NERUDA
(1831–1891)
Jan Neruda, one of the most versatile of the Czech writers, was born in Praha, July 9, 1834 and died after a wasting illness on August 11, 1891. His work and importance may well be divided into two general divisions. The first part of Neruda’s literary activity was concerned with lyrical poetry, travel sketches and essays, while the latter part of his literary life was devoted to short stories, ballads and deeply rooted impressions of local color. Neruda had prepared originally for a pedogogic mission, but shortly left the school room for a permanent journalistic and literary career. His simplicity of form and depth of meaning, his sincere self-critical reflections have won for him a permanent place in the heart of generations of Czech readers. His outtsanding poetic works include “Graveyard Blossoms” (1858) “Cosmic Songs” (1878) “Simple Motives” (1883) “Friday Songs” (Posthumous Publication) and many other collections.

IN NATURE
I am no more than yonder rose bud, No more than a summer’s nightingale; When spring departs, my leaves will wither, My songs will pass with the Autumn gale.
But as the nightingale rejoices, And as the scented rose-bud blooms, Thus too my soul waits for its hour And all it holds, resounds and booms.
And it suffices for me to know that When the time was ripe I sang my songs; Rejoicing in them without sorrow, Sorrowing in them for my wrongs.
Then let the winds play o’er the grasses That hide my grave in a far-off dale; I know that when my life’s rose blossomed I was a singing nightingale.

IN SOLITUDE
Contentment breathes from your bosom, Peace from your shaded eyes, Hold me closer to you That I may know where my happiness lies.
Just gaze at me, gaze longer, Prolonged is the sorrow I’ve borne, But your smile now falls upon it Like a sunray at the break of morn.
My soul is light and gay now, So peaceful, warm, unstirred, The eyes with tears are moistened; How could this have occured?

# The Soul Of A Century/Josef V. Sladek

JOSEF V. SLADEK
(1845–1912)
Josef V. Sladek ranks high as a poet and a translator as well. He was born in Zbirov, October 27th, 1845, and died in 1912. After completing his philosophic studies at the Charles University of Prague, Sladek left for America, where he spent two years (1869–70). No doubt that this brief but important period had marked influence upon Sladek and made possible his translations of Longfellow’s Hiawatha ,Byron’s Hebrew Melodies, Coleridge’s Ancient Mariner, and many Shakespearean plays. His works include Poems (1875) Sparks at Sea (1880) On the Threshold of Paradise (1883) Sunshine and Shadows (1881) and others. Sladek’s poetry ranges from tender dreaminess to bold manly resolve. Between his lines seeps a constant stream of tender love, combined with bitter hate of every form of treachery and deceit. He is sincere and convincing whether it be sparks of humor or darts of disdain that fly like sparks from off the anvil of his creative genius.
