# The Book of the Thousand Nights and One Night/The Vizier of Yemen and his Young Brother

First-level story, told by Shehrzad
THE VIZIER OF YEMEN AND HIS YOUNG BROTHER.
Bedreddin, Vizier of Yemen, had a young brother of singular beauty and kept strait watch over him. So he applied himself to seek a governor for him and coming upon an elder of dignified and reverend aspect, chaste and pious, lodged him in a house next his own, whence ​he used to come daily to the Vizier’s dwelling, to teach the latter’s brother. After awhile, the old man’s heart was taken with love for his pupil and longing grew upon him and his entrails were troubled, till, one day, he made moan of his case to the boy, who said, ‘What can I do, seeing that I may not leave my brother day or night? Thou seest how careful he is over me.’ Quoth the governor, ‘My lodging adjoins thine; so, when thy brother sleeps, do thou rise and entering the wardrobe, feign thyself asleep. Then come to the parapet of the roof and I will receive thee on the other side of the wall; so shalt thou sit with me awhile and return without thy brother’s knowledge.’ ‘I hear and obey,’ answered the boy. So, when awhile of the night was past, he entered the closet and waited till his brother lay down on his bed and was drowned in sleep, when he rose and going to the parapet of the roof, found the governor awaiting him, who gave him his hand and carried him to the sitting-chamber, where he had made ready various dainties for his entertainment, and they sat down to carouse.
Now it was the night of the full moon, and as they sat, passing the wine-cup to one another, her rays shone upon them, and the governor fell to singing. But, whilst they were thus in mirth and joyance and good cheer, such as confounds the wit and the sight and defies description, the Vizier awoke and missing his brother, arose in affright and found the door open. So he went up to the roof and hearing a noise of talk, peeped over the parapet and saw a light shining in the governor’s lodging. He looked in and espied his brother and his governor sitting carousing: but the latter became aware of him and sang the following verses, cup in hand, to a lively measure:
He gave me wine to drink, of his mouth’s nectar rare, Toasting with down of cheeks and what adjoineth there;
Then passed with me the night, embracing, cheek to cheek, A loveling midst mankind unpeered and past compare. The full moon gazed on us all night; pray then to her, So to his brother she to tell of us forbear.
Now the Vizier was a merry man; so, when he heard this, he said, ‘By Allah, I will not betray you!’ And he went away and left them to their diversion.

# The Economics of Climate Change: a Primer/Preface

Preface
A scientific consensus is emerging that rising atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases are gradually changing the Earth’s climate, although the magnitude, timing, and effects of the alteration remain very uncertain. The prospect of long-term climate change raises a variety of domestic and international economic policy issues on which there is little accord. Considerable disagreement exists about whether to control greenhouse gas emissions, and if so, how and by how much; and whether to coordinate climate-related polices at the international level, and if so, through what mechanisms.
This Congressional Budget Office (CBO) study—prepared at the request of the Ranking Member of the House Committee on Science—presents an overview of issues related to climate change, focusing primarily on its economic aspects. The study draws from numerous published sources to summarize the current state of climate science and provide a conceptual framework for addressing climate change as an economic problem. It also examines public policy options and discusses the potential complications and benefits of international coordination. In keeping with CBO’s mandate to provide impartial analysis, the study makes no recommendations.
Robert Shackleton of CBO’s Macroeconomic Analysis Division wrote the study. CBO staff members Robert Dennis, Terry Dinan, Douglas Hamilton, Roger Hitchner, Arlene Holen, Kim Kowalewski, Mark Lasky, Deborah Lucas, David Moore, John Sturrock, Natalie Tawil, and Thomas Woodward provided valuable comments and assistance, as did Henry Jacoby of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Thomas Schelling of the University of Maryland at College Park. The comments of Chris Webster and John Reilly of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Mort Webster of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill were particularly helpful in developing the discussion of uncertainty.
Leah Mazade edited the study, and Christine Bogusz proofread it. Kathryn Winstead prepared the study for publication, and Annette Kalicki produced the electronic versions for CBO’s Web site.

# The Dog And His Master

NO better Dog e'er kept his Master's Door
Than honest Snarl, who spar'd nor Rich nor Poor;
But gave the Alarm, when any one drew nigh,
Nor let pretended Friends pass fearless by:
For which reprov'd, as better Fed than Taught,
He rightly thus expostulates the Fault.
To keep the House from Rascals was my Charge;
The Task was great, and the Commission large.
Nor did your Worship e'er declare your Mind,
That to the begging Crew it was confin'd;
Who shrink an Arm, or prop an able Knee,
Or turn up Eyes, till they're not seen, nor see.
To Thieves, who know the Penalty of Stealth,
And fairly stake their Necks against your Wealth,
These are the known Delinquents of the Times,
And Whips and Tyburn. testify their Crimes.
But since to Me there was by Nature lent
An exquisite Discerning by the Scent;
I trace a Flatt'rer, when he fawns and leers,
A rallying Wit, when he commends and jeers:
The greedy Parasite I grudging note,
Who praises the good Bits, that oil his Throat;
I mark the Lady, you so fondly toast,
That plays your Gold, when all her own is lost:
The Knave, who fences your Estate by Law,
Yet still reserves an undermining Flaw.
These and a thousand more, which I cou'd tell,
Provoke my Growling, and offend my Smell.

Edition of 1920. See also Deerfoot (runner) on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
DEERFOOT, famous runner: b. Cattaraugus reservation, Buffalo, 1828; d. there, 18 Jan. 1897. A half-breed Seneca Indian, he was taken to England in 1861 and matched against the best long-distance runners, defeating nearly all of them. He lost a six-mile race against Mills in September 1861, but defeated White in a four-mile contest a few days later, and directly after outran both of those experts in a 10-mile championship. He beat Levett and Mills (12 miles) at Dublin for $500 in 65 minutes, and Howitt — the “American Deer,” in London (four miles). He made a record of 11 miles 720 yards in one hour {London, October 1862), and 11½ miles in one hour less six seconds (February 1863); another record was 11 miles and 12 miles in 57 minutes and 62 minutes respectively.
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Deer-mouse

Edition of 1920. See also Peromyscus on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
DEER-MOUSE (Peromyscus leucopus), the common white-footed mouse of North America, a rodent of the family Muridæ. The main color of its body is buff or fawn, growing dark along the back, the feet and under parts being snowy white. With full, bright eyes, high, rounded ears, long whiskers and tail, graceful and sprightly movement, it is a very attractive little animal. It has been found to have small cheek-pouches. Its length rarely exceeds four inches, its tail being nearly as long. In different sections of the country its markings and habits are varied, and in some it seeks a home in the human dwelling, as do other mice. Also the jumping mouse, Zapus hudsonius.
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Deer-stalking

Edition of 1920. See also Deer stalking on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
DEER-STALKING, an exciting but laborious mode of hunting the red-deer, in which, on account of the extreme shyness of the game, their far-sightedness and keen sense of smell, they have to be approached by cautious manœuvring before a chance of obtaining a shot occurs. Great patience and tact and a thorough knowledge of the grouod are essential to a good stalker, who has to undergo many discomforts in crouching, creeping and wading through bogs, etc. Advance from higher to lower ground is usually made, since the deer are always apt to look to the low ground as the source of danger. “Deer-driving” toward a point where the shooters are concealed is often practised, but is regarded as poor sport by the true deer-stalker.
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Deerfield

Edition of 1920. See also Deerfield, Massachusetts on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
DEERFIELD, Mass., town of Franklin County, on the Connecticut River and the Boston and Maine and the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroads, 33 miles north of Springfield. It is an agricultural region, and its industries are chiefly related to agricultural products. It has also manufactures of pocket books and art novelties. It has a high school, Deerfield Academy and a public library. The town contains the village of South Deerfield, and in colonial times was the scene of several contests with the Indians. Among them were the “Bloody Brook Massacre” (1675) and the burning of the village by the French and Indians under De Rouville (1703). Old Deerfield has a beautiful soldiers' monument, and there
is at South Deerfield a marble monument commemorative of the Bloody Brook disaster. Eliza Allen Starr, author and art teacher, was born in Deerfield. The waterworks are owned by the municipality. The government is administered by annual town meetings. Pop. 2,209. Consult Sheldon, ‘A History of Deerfield, Mass.’ (Deerfield 1895-96), and Powell, ‘Historic Towns of New England’ (New York 1898).
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Deerfield River

Edition of 1920. See also Deerfield River on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
DEERFIELD RIVER, a river in Massachusetts, rising in southern Vermont and flowing generally southeast for 60 miles, when it enters the Connecticut River. The great fall of the river of nearly 1,100 feet in 50 miles furnishes water power at many places, of which the chief are at the Hoosac Tunnel and Shelburne Falls. Several streams nearly as large as the main river enter it from the north.
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Deer Forests

Edition of 1920. See also Deer forest on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
DEER FORESTS, large tracts of waste or uncultivated and mostly uncultivable land, chiefly situated in the Highlands of Scotland, set apart as grounds in which the stag or red-deer is hunted for sport, but is otherwise protected and allowed to roam in its natural wild state. The name forest does not in this case imply the existence of trees. As a matter of fact most deer forests are mountains or high-lying stretches of ground, exhibiting large areas covered with heath, in many places peat-bogs, marshes, lochs or bare rock, elsewhere patches of grass or other herbage, while plantations of trees of greater or less extent may also occur. Some of the deer forests are of very great extent, the larger covering, say, from 50,000 to 70,000 acres. The counties in which they are chiefly situated are Sutherland, Ross, Cromarty, Inverness, and Argyle, while they also exist in Aberdeen, Banff, Forfar, Perth and Caithness. A number of them are retained in the hands of their proprietors, while many others are let, either for the shooting season or
for a period of years, and in this case may bring a large rental to their owners. The annual rental value of the larger deer forests ranges from $5,000 to $20,000 or even more, and the total rental of the deer forests of Scotland has been set down at over $1,000,000 per annum. Every stag killed costs the person who rents the ground about 50 guineas. A deer forest is always an expensive affair, not only for the rent that has to be paid, but also for the number of keepers, guides, watchers, beaters, etc., that have to be employed in connection with it.

Edition of 1920. See also Rhexia on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
DEER-GRASS (Rhexia virginica), one of the American representatives of the large family of plants called Melastomaceæ, meadow-beauty family, of which only about 20 species are found in the United States. The deer-grass extends from Maine to Florida and west to Illinois, Missouri and Louisiana. Other species extend the habitat of the genus to Texas. The flowers are conspicuous and showy, with bright rosy purple petals, and render the meadows unusually gay when adorned with patches of this lovely plant, entitling it to the common name of the meadow-beauty,

# The Complete Poems of Paul Laurence Dunbar/Little Lucy Landman

LITTLE LUCY LANDMAN
Oh, the day has set me dreaming  In a strange, half solemn way Of the feelings I experienced  On another long past day,— Of the way my heart made music  When the buds began to blow, And o' little Lucy Landman  Whom I loved long years ago.
It 's in spring, the poet tells us,  That we turn to thoughts of love, And our hearts go out a-wooing  With the lapwing and the dove. But whene'er the soul goes seeking  Its twin-soul, upon the wing, I 've a notion, backed by mem'ry,  That it's love that makes the spring.
I have heard a robin singing  When the boughs were brown and bare, And the chilling hand of winter Scattered jewels through the air. And in spite of dates and seasons,  It was always spring, I know, When I loved Lucy Landman  In the days of long ago.
Ah, my little Lucy Landman,  I remember you as well As if 't were only yesterday  I strove your thoughts to tell,— When I tilted back your bonnet,  Looked into your eyes so true, Just to see if you were loving  Me as I was loving you.
Ah, my little Lucy Landman  It is true it was denied You should see a fuller summer  And an autumn by my side. But the glance of love's sweet sunlight  Which your eyes that morning gave Has kept spring within my bosom,  Though you lie within the grave.
