VII.—LIBYA.
A curious kind of oxen.
125.—In Libya there live men who are called the Garamantes. In their land there are oxen which are said to graze while walking backwards. Now they do this because they have horns with a forward curve, on which account they graze walking backwards; for they cannot graze while walking forward, since their horns strike against the ground before they can advance. They differ in nothing from other oxen except in this very respect, and in the thickness and hardness of their hides.
The cave-dwellers.
126.—The same Garamantes pursue the Ethiopian Troglodytae in four-horse chariots. Now they are called Troglodytae because they live in caves; for a cave is called. ‘troglus.’ For these Troglodytae are the swiftest of foot of all men of whom we have ever heard. Now the Troglodytae live on snakes, and lizards, and reptiles of that kind; but they use a language like to no other, but shriek like owls.

# King Death

King Death was a rare old fellow! He sate where no sun could shine; And he lifted his hand so yellow, And poured out his coal-black wine. Hurrah! for the coal-black Wine!
There came to him many a Maiden, Whose eyes had forgot to shine; And Widows, with grief o'erladen, For a draught of his sleepy wine. Hurrah! for the coal-black Wine!
The Scholar left all his learning; The Poet his fancied woes; And the Beauty her bloom returning, Like life to the fading rose. Hurrah! for the coal-black Wine!
All came to the royal old fellow, Who laugh'd till his eyes dropped brine, As he gave them his hand so yellow, And pledged them in Death's black wine. Hurrah! ­Hurrah! Hurrah! for the coal-black Wine!

SONG.
Take back your wreath, your sunny wreath,
 'Tis mockery to give it me!
The summer’s bloom, the summer's breath
 Are not what should be offered me.
For though those flowers may fade and fall,
 How very sweet their life has been!
And fragrant still the coronal,
 Though dead the blush and sear the green.
They are perhaps an offering
 To scatter on my funeral stone;
For flowers are not made for the Spring,
 Which only blight and blast has known.
But take some veil in darkness wove.
 And fling its shadow o'er my brow,
It will be like the cloud which love
 Has thrown around my past and now!—L. E. L.

ORIGINAL POETRY. FRAGMENTS BY L.E.L. Second Series.
Gleamings of poetry,—if I may give
That name of beauty, passion, and of grace,
To the wild thoughts that in a starlit hour,
In a pale twilight, or a rose-bud morn,
Glance o'er my spirit,—thoughts that are like light,
Or love, or hope, in their effects.
SONG.
Oh speak not of love
 As of that which might be,
If the love could pass over
 I now feel for thee.
Oh speak not of falsehood,
 For it must be thine;
I cannot in fancy
 Dream of it as mine.
I have lived but for one love;
 If that were no more,
Oh never could new love
 Its likeness restore.
When the lamp of the vestal
 Had chanced to expire,
It might be rekindled
 By morning sunfire ;
But, love once extinguished,
 All efforts are vain,
There is nothing can brighten
 Its embers again.
# Landon in The Literary Gazette 1824/Song 7

Literary Gazette, 3rd April, 1824, Page 219
Young Beauty once dwelt in a bower,
 A fairy bower of rose, with Love;
There was a fragrant earth beneath,
 There was a cloudless sky above.
And they were happy, till one day
 Beauty bethought her of Love's wings,
And watched her moment—o'er his neck
 A chain, a golden chain, she flings.
Alas, the folly of such care!
 Alas, that e'er the chain was thrown!
For Beauty found Love disappear,
 And that the fetters were her own!

SONGS.
Farewell! and soon between us both
 Will roll the trackless sea;
I would that it could wash away
 All thought of thine and thee!
Fast flies the white sail o'er the wave;
 I would I too could part,
As I part from the sand and rock,
 With all that wrings my heart!
But what can I see that will not
 Still bring thee to my mind?
Thy smile is in the clear glad light,
 Thy voice in the soft wind.
And even if I could forget,
 The blank that then were mine
Were worse than all. O, better far,
 Be wretched, and yet thine!

The sun was setting o'er the sea,
 A beautiful and summer sun,
Crimson and warm, as if not night,
 But rather day were just begun;—
That lighted sky, that lighted sea,
They spoke of love and hope to me!
I thought how love, I thought how hope,
 O'er the horizon of my heart
Had poured their glory, like yon sun,
 Like yon sun, only to depart.
Alas! that suns should ever set,
Or Hope grow pale, or Love forget.
# Landon in The Literary Gazette 1824/Song 17

Literary Gazette, 25th December, 1824, Pages 825-826
My heart is filled with bitter thoughts,
 My eyes with bitter tears;
I have been thinking on the past,
 And upon future years.
Years past—how sad they all have been,
 And how long too they seem!
And years that are as yet to come,
 Of them I dare not dream.
The past is as a battle-field,
 Where many a hope lies dead,
Haunted by ghosts of pleasures past,
 And feelings long since fled.
The future is a desert waste,
 Unknown, and dark and drear,
Where my thoughts know not what they dread,  They only know they fear.
Are there not stars whose evil light
 Is given but for ill?
One such is mine—go where I may,
 That star shines o'er me still!

SONG.
The wreath of green leaves that was bound
 Amid your chesnut hair,
Is scattered,— look upon the ground,
 The leaves are lying there.
And some are faded, some are stained,
Some crushed, and not one has retained
 Its sweet and summer share
Of graceful shape and fresh green hue,
Such as they were when given you.
Around thy heart there is a wreath
 Of fair hopes fresh and green,
Breathed on by young Love's summer breath;
 A little while, I ween,
The green hopes will have died away,
As utterly gone to decay
 As they had never been.
The wreath that bound your heart and hair
Were made the self-same fate to share.
Your shining curls flow wild on air,
 Their braiding wreath undone;
Your heart lies desolate and bare,
 Its hope's glad foliage gone.
And such the destiny that clings
To all earth's fair and fragrant things;
 And such will be thine own;
The wasted heart, the withered tree,
Are emblems of thy fate and Thee.L. E. L.

SONG.
False as thou art, yet still farewell!
 With every wish that love can frame,
With fond hopes for thy happiness,
 With blessings breathed upon thy name.
I loved, I may not say how well,
 While that I thought my heart might be
A thing of bliss;—now I can charm
 No more, but I can die for thee!
Farewell, farewell! and I will shroud
 My wrongs in silence, for thy sake;
Tho' still adored, henceforth my heart's
 Sole proof of love shall be —to break.

ORIGINAL POETRY. SONGS.
Do you recall one autumn night
 We stood by the sea-side,
And marked a little vessel tost
 Upon the foaming tide?
The shoals were rough, the winds were high,
 Wild was the billow's roar;
The little vessel reeled, yet still
 Steered for, and gained the shore.
And thus my heart—however light
 You deem that heart to be—
By all the storm and change of life
 Cannot be turned from Thee!

They say, that when the oyster shell—
 (Listen the tale, my own fair Girl)—
Is wounded, straightway it is closed
 By ocean's loveliest gem, a pearl.
My heart is wounded;—with the eyes,
 Wave thou the heart too of the dove?
Be not more cruel than the Sea,
 But close the wound up with thy love!

La Confiance Compagnie D'Assurance Contre L'Incendie v. Hall
This action was commenced by plaintiff in error in a state court, and removed to the circuit court of the United States for the eastern district of Missouri upon petition of the defendant, on the ground that the plaintiff was an alien and citizen of France, and the defendant a citizen of Missouri. The existence of such diverse citizenship at the commencement of the suit, as well as when the removal was asked, did not appear affirmatively in the petition for removal, or in the record when that was filed. We are compelled to reverse the judgment, with costs, and remit the cause to the circuit court, with a direction to remand to the state court. Stevens v. Nichols, 130 U.S. 230, 9 Sup. Ct. Rep. 518; Crehore v. Railroad Co., 131 U.S. 240, 9 Sup. Ct. Rep. 692; Jackson v. Allen, 132 U.S. 27, 10 Sup. Ct. Rep. 9.

# La Conception/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
In this case, if the cause had stood solely upon the evidence before the Circuit Court, we should have no difficulty in affirming its decision. But upon the new proofs which have been since taken, and are now produced to this Court, it is apparent that the capturing vessel was originally built, equipped, manned, and armed in the United States for a cruize, being owned by citizens of this country, and sailed with the intent of cruizing against Spain. It is true that she went to Buenos Ayres, and sailed under the colours of that government on a second cruize, during which this capture was made; but, there is no satisfactory evidence that the American ownership ever ceased, or that there was a real, bona fide sale at Buenos Ayres. If such a sale had really taken place, it was perfectly in the power of the captors to have proved it, in the clearest manner. A bill of sale is the customary and universal document by which the ownership of vessels is evidenced; and the want of any document of this nature, or of any direct and positive evidence of an actual sale, leaves no doubt in the mind of the Court, that no such sale ever was made. The consequence is, that the capturing vessel must still be considered, as owned in the United States; and, according to the decisions which have already been made, the capture was illegal, and the property must be restored to the original Spanish owners.
Sentence reversed.

# Lady Clara Vere De Vere: New Style

LADY CLARA VERE DE VERE: NEW STYLE
(REFORMER, UPLIFTER, SOCIAL SERVICER AND BELIEVER IN BETTERMENT)
BY ANNE O'HAGAN
WITH A PICTURE BY E. L. BLUMENSCHEIN
LADY CLARA: NEW STYLE
Lady Clara Vere de Vere,
Though, 'neath the Tennysonian frown,
You 've ceased to play at hearts, what need
For throwing all the graces down?
The quip, the wile, the wingèd smile,
Must these in truth be quite retired,
Reformer of a thousand ills,
O lady with a mission fired?
Lady Clara Vere de Vere,
You cause a tumult in my head.
I do not know how many quarts
Of coal-tar every year are fed
In store-made pies, or what dread dyes
Give that bright emerald to canned peas.
I do not know the cure for graft,
Or juvenile delinquencies;
And, oh, my very soul is sick
Of these and topics like to these!
Lady Clara Vere de Vere,
On suffragism you 've a view.
You have one on the cost of war,
And what the working-girl should do.
Your uplift crusade comprehends
The stage, the mart, the funeral bier;
Your dinner-table talk has grown
Statistical and very drear.
Trust me, Clara Vere de Vere,
By yon blue heavens above us bent,
The gardener Adam and his wife
Yawn at your plans for betterment.
We never see such sad ennui
Among our hapless human brood
As when the ladies' motto runs:
" 'T is fashionable to do good."
Clara, Clara Vere de Vere,
If time hangs heavy on your hands,
Are there no suitors at your gates,
No squires of dames about your lands?
Go, play the game of hearts again,
Coquette, and sparkle, languish, glow;
Ask pardon of the folk you 've bored,
And let the thousand causes go!

# Lamps Plus, Inc. v. Frank Varela/Concurrence

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
No. 17–988
LAMPS PLUS, INC., ET AL., PETITIONERS v. FRANK VARELA ON WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT [April 24, 2019]
Justice Thomas, concurring. As our precedents make clear and the Court acknowledges, the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) requires federal courts to enforce arbitration agreements “just as they would ordinary contracts: in accordance with their terms.” Howsam v. Dean Witter Reynolds, Inc., 537 U. S. 79, 87 (2002) (Thomas, J., concurring in judgment). Federal courts must therefore apply “background principles of state contract law” when evaluating arbitration agreements. Arthur Andersen LLP v. Carlisle, 556 U. S. 624, 630 (2009); Perry v. Thomas, 482 U. S. 483, 492, n. 9 (1987). “In this endeavor, ‘as with any other contract, the parties’ intentions control.’” Stolt-Nielsen S. A. v. AnimalFeeds Int’l Corp., 559 U. S. 662, 682 (2010) (quoting Mitsubishi Motors Corp. v. Soler Chrysler–Plymouth, Inc., 473 U. S. 614, 626 (1985)). Thus, where an agreement is silent as to class arbitration, a court may not infer from that silence that the parties agreed to arbitrate on a class basis. 559 U. S., at 687. Here, the arbitration agreement between Varela and Lamps Plus is silent as to class arbitration. If anything, the agreement suggests that the parties contemplated only bilateral arbitration. App. to Pet. for Cert. 24a (waiving ​“any right I may have to file a lawsuit or other civil action or proceeding relating to my employment with the Company” (emphasis added)); ibid. (“The Company and I mutually consent to the resolution by arbitration of all claims… that I may have against the Company” (emphasis added)); id., at 24a–25a (“Specifically, the Company and I mutually consent to the resolution by arbitration of all claims that may hereafter arise in connection with my employment” (emphasis added)). This agreement provides no “contractual basis” for concluding that the parties agreed to class arbitration, Stolt-Nielsen, supra, at 684, and I would therefore reverse on that basis.
The Court instead evaluates whether California’s contra proferentem rule, as applied here, “‘stands as an obstacle to the accomplishment and execution of the full purposes and objectives’ of the FAA.” Ante, at 6 (quoting AT&T Mobility LLC v. Concepcion, 563 U. S. 333, 352 (2011)). I remain skeptical of this Court’s implied pre-emption precedents, see Wyeth v. Levine, 555 U. S. 555, 582–604 (2009) (opinion concurring in judgment), but I join the opinion of the Court because it correctly applies our FAA precedents, see Epic Systems Corp. v. Lewis, 584 U. S. ___ (2018); Concepcion, supra.
