HYMN 114.
The God of Abraham praise, Who reigns enthron'd above; Ancient of everlasting days, And God of love; Jehovah! great I AM! By earth and Heav'n confess'd; I bow, and bless Thy sacred Name, For ever blessed.
The God of Abraham praise, At whose supreme command, From earth I rise, and seek the joys At His right hand. ​I all on earth forsake, Its wisdom, fame, and pow'r; And Him my only portion make, My Shield and Tower.
The God of Abraham praise, Whose all sufficient grace Shall guide me all my happy days In all His ways. He calls a worm His friend, He calls Himself my God; And he shall save me to the end, Through Jesus' blood.

HYMN 116.
The Lord, the sov'reign King, Hath fix'd His throne on high; O'er all the heav'nly world he rules, And all beneath the sky.
Ye Angels, great in might, And swift to do His will, Bless ye the Lord, whose voice ye hear, Whose pleasure ye fulfil.
Let the bright Hosts who wait The orders of their King, And guard His people when they pray, Join in the praise they sing.
While all His wondrous works Through His vast kingdom show Their Maker's glory, thou my soul, Shall sing His praises too.

HYMN 117.
Thee we adore, eternal Lord! We praise Thy name with one accord; Thy saints, who here Thy goodness see, Through all the world do worship Thee.
To Thee aloud all Angels cry, And ceaseless raise their songs on high; Both cherubim and seraphim, The Heav'ns and all the pow'rs therein.
Th' Apostles join the glorious throng, The Prophets swell th' immortal song; ​The Martyrs' noble army raise Eternal anthems to Thy praise.
Thee, Holy, Holy, Holy, King! Thee, Lord of Sabaoth they sing; Thus earth below, and Heav'n above, Resound Thy glory and Thy love.

HYMN 119.
Thou art gone to the grave—but we will not deplore thee, Though sorrows and darkness encompass the tomb; The Saviour hath pass'd through its portals before thee, And the lamp of His love was thy guide through the gloom.
Thou art gone to the grave-we no longer behold thee, Nor tread the rough path of the world by thy side; But the wide arms of mercy are spread to enfold thee, And sinners may hope, since the Saviour hath died.
Thou art gone to the grave-and, its mansion forsaking, Perhaps thy tried spirit in doubt linger'd long; But the sunshine of Heav'n beam'd bright on thy waking, And the sound which thou heard'st was the seraphim's song.
Thou art gone to the grave—but t'were wrong to deplore thee, Since God was thy ransom, thy guardian thy guide, ​He gave thee, He took thee, He soon will restore thee, Where death has no sting, since the Saviour has died.

HYMN 121.
Thou boundless source of every good; Our best desires fulfil, And help us to adore Thy grace, And mark Thy sov'reign will.
In all Thy mercies may our souls Thy bounteous goodness see; ​Nor let the gifts Thy hand imparts Estrange our souls from Thee.
In ev'ry changing scene of life, Whate'er that change may be, Give us a meek and humble mind, A mind at peace with Thee.
Do Thou direct our steps aright; Help us Thy Name to fear; And give us grace to watch and pray, And strength to persevere.

HYMN 118.
This is the day the Lord hath made, He calls the hours His own; Let Heav'n rejoice, let earth be glad, And praise surround the throne.
To-day He rose and left the dead, And Satan's empire fell; To-day the saints His triumphs spread, And all His wonders tell.
Hosannah to th' anointed King, To David's holy Son! Help us O Lord! descend, and bring Salvation from Thy Throne.
Blest be the Lord, who comes to men With messages of grace; Who comes, in God His Father's name, To save our sinful race.
Hosannah, in the highest strains The church on earth can raise; The highest Heav'ns, in which He reigns, Shall give Him nobler praise.

HYMN 115.
The Lord is King! lift up your voice, O earth, and all ye Heav'ns, rejoice; From world to world the joy shall ring, The Lord Omnipotent is King.
He reigns! ye saints exalt your strains; Your God is King, your Father reigns! And He is at the Father's side, The Man of Love, the Crucified.
Come, make your wants, your burdens known, He will present them at the throne; And Angel bands are waiting there, His messages of Love to bear.
O, when His wisdom can mistake, His might decay, His love forsake, Then may His children cease to sing, "The Lord Omnipotent is King."

HYMN 12.
Bright and joyful is the morn, For to us a child is born; From the highest realms of Heav'n Unto us a Son is given.
On His shoulder He shall bear Pow'r and majesty, and wear On His vesture and His thigh Names most awful names most high.
Wonderful in counsel He, The incarnate Deity; Sire of ages ne'er to cease, King of Kings and Prince of Peace.
Come and worship at His feet, Yield to Christ the homage meet, From His manger to His throne, Homage due to God alone.

HYMN 120.
Thou art the Way—to Thee alone From sin and death we flee; And he who would the Father seek, Must seek Him, Lord, by Thee.
Thou art the Truth—Thy word alone True wisdom can impart; Thou only canst inform the mind, And purify the heart.
Thou art the Life—the rending tomb Proclaims Thy conqu'ring arm; And those who put their trust in Thee Nor sin, nor death shall harm.
Thou art the Way, the Truth, the Life— Grant us that Way to know, That truth to keep, that Life to win Whose joys eternal flow.
# A Geographical, Statistical, and Historical Description of the District, Or Zila, of Dinajpur/Book 2/Chapter 4/Section 3

Section 3.—Various small sects.
The followers of Muhammed and of the Brahmins compose almost the whole population of Dinajpúr, so that I shall have little or no room to say any thing concerning other religious opinions.
​Many agents and persons belonging to a people called Oshoyal, frequent this district as traders, but have not taken up a permanent residence. They seem to form two tribes. At the head of one is the house of Jogot Seit, the chief banker in India, and these are commonly said to be Jain. At the head of the other tribe, who are usually called Kengiya, and who are extensive traders in grain, is a person named Bhoj Raja. One of his agents said, that he worshipped Gautom; but I met with no priest nor intelligent person, who could give me any satisfactory information.
A good many Sikhs frequent the district as merchants; but I have no information to offer concerning them, as I found no priest, nor well-informed person, to give me an account of their customs. They have however a meeting (Songgot or Dhormo-sala) at Dinajpur, where they assemble to worship morning and evening, and where travellers of the sect are received. At Maldeh was formerly another meeting; but it is now abandoned, and only one old woman remains in the place.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Hogg, Thomas Jefferson

​Hogg, Thomas Jefferson (1792-1862).—Biographer, s. of John H., a country gentleman of Durham, ed. at Durham Grammar School, and Univ. Coll., Oxf., where he made the acquaintance of Shelley, whose lifelong friend and biographer he became. Associate with S. in the famous pamphlet on The Necessity of Atheism, he shared in the expulsion from the Univ. which it entailed, and thereafter devoted himself to the law, being called to the Bar in 1817. In 1832 he contributed to Bulwer's New Monthly Magazine his Reminiscences of Shelley, which was much admired. Thereafter he was commissioned to write a biography of the poet, of which he completed 2 vols., but in so singular a fashion that the material with which he had been entrusted was withdrawn. The work, which is probably unique in the annals of biography, while giving a vivid and credible picture of S. externally, shows no true appreciation of him as a poet, and reflects with at least equal prominence the humorously eccentric personality of the author, which render it entertaining in no common degree. Other works of H. were Memoirs of Prince Alexy Haimatoff, and a book of travels, Two Hundred and Nine Days (1827). He m. the widow of Williams, Shelley's friend, who was drowned along with him.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Holinshed, or Hollingshead, Raphael or Ralph

​Holinshed, or Hollingshead, Raphael or Ralph d. (1580?).—Belonged to a Cheshire family, and is said by Anthony Wood to have been at one of the Univ., and to have been a priest. He came to London, and was in the employment of Reginald Wolf, a German printer, making translations and doing hack-work. His Chronicles of Englande, Scotlande, and Irelande, from which Shakespeare drew much of his history, was based to a considerable extent on the collections of Leland, and he had the assistance of W. Harrison, R. Stanyhurst, and others. The introductory description of England and the English was the work of Harrison, Stanyhurst did the part relating to Ireland, and H. himself the history of England and Scotland, the latter being mainly translated from the works of Boece and Major. Pub. in 1577 it had an eager welcome, and a wide and lasting popularity. A later ed. in 1586 was ed. by J. Hooker and Stow. It is a work of real value—a magazine of useful and interesting information, with the authorities cited. Its tone is strongly Protestant, its style clear.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Home, John

​Home, John (1722-1808).—Dramatist, s. of the Town Clerk of Leith, where he was b., ed. there and at Edin., and entered the Church. Before doing so, however, he had fought on the Royalist side in the '45, and had, after the Battle of Falkirk, been a prisoner in Doune Castle, whence he escaped. His ministerial life, which was passed at Athelstaneford, East Lothian, was brought to an end by the action of the Church Courts on his producing the play of Douglas. This drama, which had been rejected by Garrick but brought out in Edin. in 1756, created an immense sensation, and made its appearance in London the following year. H. then became private sec. to the Earl of Bute, who gave him the sinecure of Conservator of Scots Privileges at Campvere in Holland. Thereafter he was tutor to the Prince of Wales (George III.), who on his accession conferred upon him a pension of £300. Other plays were The Siege of Aquileia, The Fatal Discovery (1769), Alonzo, and Alfrec (1778), which was a total failure. He also wrote a History of the Rebellion. In 1778 he settled in Edin., where he was one of the brilliant circle of literary men of which Robertson was the centre. He supported the claims of Macpherson to be the translator of Ossian.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Hoccleve, or Occleve, Thomas

​Hoccleve, or Occleve, Thomas (1368?-1450?).—Poet, probably b. in London, where he appears to have spent most of his life, living in Chester's Inn in the Strand. Originally intended for the Church, he received an appointment in the Privy Seal Office, which he retained until 1424, when quarters were assigned him in the Priory of Southwick, Hants. In 1399 a pension of £10, subsequently increased to £13, 6s. 8d., had been conferred upon him, which, however, was paid only intermittently, thus furnishing him with a perpetual grievance. His early life appears to have been irregular, and to the end he was a weak, vain, discontented man. His chief work is De Regimine Principum or Governail of Princes, written 1411-12. The best part of this is an autobiographical prelude Mal Regle de T. Hoccleve, in which he holds up his youthful follies as a warning. It is also interesting as containing, in the MS. in the British Museum, a drawing of Chaucer, from which all subsequent portraits have been taken.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Hogg, James

​Hogg, James (The Ettrick Shepherd) (1770-1835).—Poet, and writer of tales, belonged to a race of shepherds, and began life by herding cows until he was old enough to be trusted with a flock of sheep. His imagination was fed by his mother, who was possessed of an inexhaustible stock of ballads and folk-lore. He had little schooling, and had great difficulty in writing out his earlier poems, but was earnest in giving himself such culture as he could. Entering the service of Mr. Laidlaw, the friend of Scott, he was by ​him introduced to the poet, and assisted him in collecting material for his Border Minstrelsy. In 1796 he had begun to write his songs, and when on a visit to Edin. in 1801 he coll. his poems under the title of Scottish Pastorals, etc., and in 1807 there followed The Mountain Bard. A treatise on the diseases of sheep brought him £300, on the strength of which he embarked upon a sheep-farming enterprise in Dumfriesshire which, like a previous smaller venture in Harris, proved a failure, and he returned to Ettrick bankrupt. Thenceforward he relied almost entirely on literature for support. With this view he, in 1810, settled in Edin., pub. The Forest Minstrel, and started the Spy, a critical journal, which ran for a year. In 1813 The Queen's Wake showed his full powers, and finally settled his right to an assured place among the poets of his country. He joined the staff of Blackwood, and became the friend of Wilson, Wordsworth, and Byron. Other poems followed, The Pilgrims of the Sun (1815), Madoc of the Moor, The Poetic Mirror, and Queen Hynde (1826); and in prose Winter Evening Tales (1820), The Three Perils of Man (1822), and The Three Perils of Woman. In his late years his home was a cottage at Altrive on 70 acres of moorland presented to him by the Duchess of Buccleuch, where he d. greatly lamented. As might be expected from his almost total want of regular education, H. was often greatly wanting in taste, but he had real imagination and poetic faculty. Some of his lyrics like The Skylark are perfect in their spontaneity and sweetness, and his Kilmeny is one of the most exquisite fairy tales in the language. Hogg was vain and greedy of praise, but honest and, beyond his means, generous. He is a leading character, partly idealised, partly caricatured, in Wilson's Noctes Ambrosianæ.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Holcroft, Thomas

​Holcroft, Thomas (1745-1809).—Dramatist, s. of a small shoemaker in London, passed his youth as a pedlar, and as a Newmarket stable boy. A charitable person having given him some education he became a schoolmaster, but in 1770 went on the ​provincial stage. He then took to writing plays, and was the first to introduce the melodrama into England. Among his plays, The Road to Ruin (1792) is the best, and is still acted; others were Duplicity (1781), and A Tale of Mystery. Among his novels are Alwyn (1780), and Hugh Trevor, and he wrote the well-known song, Gaffer Gray. H. was a man of stern and irascible temper, industrious and energetic, and a sympathiser with the French Revolution.

​Holland, Philemon (1552–1637).—Translator, b. at Chelmsford, and ed. at Camb., was master of the free school at Coventry, where he also practised medicine. His chief translations, made in good Elizabethan English, are of Pliny's Natural History, Plutarch's Morals, Suetonius, Xenophon's Cyropædia, and Camden's Britannia. There are passages in the second of these which have hardly been excelled by any later prose translator of the classics. His later years were passed in poverty.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Holmes, Oliver Wendell

​Holmes, Oliver Wendell (1809–1894).—Essayist, novelist, and poet, was b. of good Dutch and English stock at Camb., Massachusetts, the seat of Harvard, where he graduated in 1829. He studied law, then medicine, first at home, latterly in Paris, whence he returned in 1835, and practised in his native town. In 1838 he was appointed Prof. of Anatomy and Physiology at Dartmouth Coll., from which he was in 1847 transferred to a similar chair at Harvard. Up to 1857 he had done little in literature: his first book of poems, containing "The Last Leaf," had been pub. But in that year the Atlantic Monthly was started with Lowell for ed., and H. was engaged as a principal contributor. In it appeared the trilogy by which he is best known, The Autocrat of the Breakfast Table (1857), The Professor, The Poet (1872), all graceful, ​allusive, and pleasantly egotistical. He also wrote Elsie Venner (1861), which has been called "the snake story of literature," and The Guardian Angel. By many readers he is valued most for the poems which lie imbedded in his books, such as "The Chambered Nautilus," "The Last Leaf," "Homesick in Heaven," "The Voiceless," and "The Boys."
