Rochin v. California, 342 U.S. 165 (1952), was a case decided by the Supreme Court of the United States that added behavior that "shocks the conscience" into tests of what violates due process. This balancing test is often criticized as having subsequently been used in a particularly subjective manner.

Rochin v. California
Certiorari to the Second District Court of Appeal for the Second Appellate District of California
No. 83 Argued: October 16, 1951 --- Decided: January 2, 1952
Having "some information" that petitioner was selling narcotics, three state officers entered his home and forced their way into the bedroom occupied by him and his wife. When asked about two capsules lying on a bedside table, petitioner put them in his mouth. After an unsuccessful struggle to extract them by force, the officers took petitioner to a hospital, where an emetic was forced into his stomach against his will. He vomited two capsules which were found to contain morphine. These were admitted in evidence over his objection and he was convicted in a state court of violating a state law forbidding possession of morphine. Held: The conviction is reversed, because it was obtained by methods violative of the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Pp. 166-174.
101 Cal. App. 2d 140, 225 P.2d 1, reversed.
Dolly Lee Butler and A. L. Wirin argued the cause and filed a brief for petitioner.
Howard S. Goldin, Deputy Attorney General of California, argued the cause for respondent. With him on the brief were Edmund G. Brown, Attorney General, Clarence A. Linn, Assistant Attorney General, and Frank W. Richards, Deputy Attorney General.
Fred Okrand, A. L. Wirin, Edward J. Ennis, Morris L. Ernst, Osmond K. Fraenkel, Arthur Garfield Hays, Herbert M. Levy and Clore Warne filed a brief for the American Civil Liberties Union, as amicus curiae, urging reversal.

# Sibylline Leaves (Coleridge)/Human Life

HUMAN LIFE,
On the Denial of Immortality.
A FRAGMENT.
If dead, we cease to be; if total gloom Swallow up life's brief flash for aye, we fare As summer-gusts, of sudden birth and doom, Whose sound and motion not alone declare, But are their whole of being! If the Breath Be Life itself, and not its Task and Tent, If ev'n a soul like Milton's can know death; O Man! thou vessel purposeless, unmeant, Yet drone-hive strange of phantom purposes, Surplus of nature's dread activity, Which, as she gaz'd on some nigh-finish'd vase, Retreating slow, with meditative pause, She form'd with restless hands unconsciously. Blank accident! nothing's anomaly! If rootless thus, thus substanceless thy state, Go, weigh thy dreams, and be thy Hopes thy Fears, The counter- weights!—Thy Laughter and thy Tears Mean but themselves, each fittest to create
And to repay the other! Why rejoices Thy heart with hollow joy for hollow good, Why cowl thy face beneath the Mourner's hood, Why waste thy sighs, and thy lamenting voices, Image of Image, Ghost of Ghostly Elf, That such a thing, as thou, feel'st warm or cold! Yet what and whence thy gain, if thou withhold These costless shadows of thy shadowy self!) Be sad! be glad! be neither! seek, or shun! Thou hast no reason why! Thou can'st have none! Thy being's being is contradiction.

# Sibylline Leaves (Coleridge)/Inscription, for a Fountain on a Heath

INSCRIPTION
For a Fountain on a Heath.
This Sycamore, oft musical with Bees,— Such Tents the Patriarchs lov'd! O long unharm'd May all its aged Boughs o'er-canopy The small round Basin, which this jutting stone Keeps pure from falling leaves! Long may the Spring, Quietly as a sleeping Infant's breath, Send up cold waters to the Traveller With soft and even Pulse! Nor ever cease Yon tiny Cone of Sand its soundless Dance, Which at the Bottom, like a Fairy's Page, As merry and no taller, dances still, Nor wrinkles the smooth Surface of the Fount. Here Twilight is and Coolness: here is Moss, A soft Seat, and a deep and ample Shade. Thou may'st toil far and find no second Tree. Drink, Pilgrim, here! Here rest! and if thy Heart Be innocent, here too shalt thou refresh Thy Spirit, list'ning to some gentle Sound, Or passing Gale or Hum of murmuring Bees!
# Sibylline Leaves (Coleridge)/Lewti

First published in the Morning Post, 13th April, 1798
LEWTI,
OR
THE CIRCASSIAN LOVE-CHANT.
At midnight by the stream I roved, To forget the form I loved. Image of Lewti! from my mind Depart; for Lewti is not kind.
The Moon was high, the moonlight gleam And the shadow of a star Heaved upon Tamaha's stream; But the rock shone brighter far, The rock half sheltered form my view By pendent boughs of tressy yew.— So shines my Lewti's forehead fair, Gleaming through her sable hair. Image of Lewti! from my mind Depart; for Lewti is not kind.
I saw a cloud of palest hue, Onward to the Moon it passed. Still brighter and more bright it grew, With floating colours not a few, Till it reached the Moon at last; Then the cloud was wholly bright, With a rich and amber light! And so with many a hope I seek And with such joy I find my Lewti; And even so my pale wan cheek Drinks in as deep a flush of beauty! Nay, treacherous image! leave my mind, If Lewti never will be kind.
The little cloud—it floats away, Away it goes; away so soon? Alas! it has no power to stay: Its hues are dim, its hues are grey— Away it passes from the Moon! How mournfully it seems to fly, Ever fading more and more, To joyless regions of the sky— And now 'tis whiter than before! As white as my poor cheek will be,
When, Lewti! on my couch I lie, A dying man for love of thee. Nay, treacherous Image! leave my mind— And yet, thou dids't not look unkind.
I saw a vapour in the sky, Thin, and white, and very high: I ne'er beheld so thin a cloud. Perhaps the breezes that can fly Now below and now above, Have snatch'd aloft the lawny shroud Of Lady fair—that died for love. For maids, as well as youths, have perish'd From fruitless love too fondly cherish'd. Nay, treach'rous image! leave my mind— For Lewti never will be kind.
Hush! my heedless feet from under Slip the crumbling banks for ever: Like echoes to a distant thunder, They plunge into the gentle river. The river-swans have heard my tread, And startle from their reedy bed. O beauteous Birds! methinks ye measure Your movements to some heavenly tune!
O beauteous Birds! 'tis such a pleasure To see you move beneath the Moon, 1 would it were your true delight To sleep by day and wake all night.
I know the place where Lewti lies. When silent night has closed her eyes— It is a breezy jasmine-bower. The Nightingale sings o'er her head: Voice of the Night! had I the power That leafy labyrinth to thread, And creep, like thee, with soundless tread, I then might view her bosom white Heaving lovely to my sight, As these two swans together heave On the gently swelling wave.
Oh! that she saw me in a dream, And dreamt that I had died for care! All pale and wasted I would seem, Yet fair withal, as spirits are! I'd die indeed, if I might see Her bosom heave, and heave for me! Soothe, gentle image! soothe my mind! To-morrow Lewti may be kind.

# Sibylline Leaves (Coleridge)/Home-sick

HOME-SICK.
Written in Germany.
'Tis sweet to him, who all the week Through city-crowds must push his way, To stroll alone through fields and woods, And hallow thus the Sabbath-Day.
And sweet it is, in summer bower, Sincere, affectionate and gay, One's own dear children feasting round, To celebrate one's marriage-day.
But what is all, to his delight, Who having long been doom'd to roam, Throws off the bundle from his back, Before the door of his own home?
Home-sickness is a wasting pang; This feel I hourly more and more: There's Healing only in thy wings, Thou Breeze that play'st on Albion's shore!
# Sibylline Leaves (Coleridge)/Lines, written in the Album at Elbingerode

LINES Written in the Album at Elbingerode, in the Hartz Forest.
I stood onBrocken's sovran height, and saw Woods crowding upon woods, hills over hills, A surging scene, and only limited By the blue distance. Heavily my way Downward I dragg'd through fir-groves evermore, Where bright green moss heaves in sepulchral forms Speckled with sunshine; and, but seldom heard, The sweet bird's song became an hollow sound; And the breeze, murmuring indivisibly, Preserved its solemn murmur most distinct From many a note of many a waterfall, And the brook's chatter; 'mid whose islet stones The dingy kidling with its tinkling bell Leapt frolicsome, or old romantic goat Sat, his white beard slow waving. I moved on
In low and languidmood: for I had found That outward Forms, the loftiest, still receive Their finer influence from the Life within: Fair Cyphers of vague import, where the Eye Traces no spot, in which the Heart may read History or Prophecy of Friend, or Child, Or gentle Maid, our first and early love, Or Father, or the venerable name Of our adored Country! O thou Queen, Thou delegated Deity of Earth, O dear, dear England! how my longing eye Turned westward, shaping in the steady clouds Thy sands and high white cliffs! My native Land! Filled with the thought of thee this heart was proud, Yea, mine eye swam with tears: that all the view From sovran Brocken, woods and woody hills, Floated away, like a departing dream, Feeble and dim! Stranger, these impulses
Blame thou not lightly; nor will I profane, With hasty judgment or injurious doubt, That man's sublimer spirit, who can feel That God is every where! the God who framed Mankind to be one mighty Family, Himself our Father, and the World our Home.

* ↑ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .When I have gazed From some high eminence on goodly vales, And cots and villages embowered below, The thought would rise that all to me was strange Amid the scenes so fair, nor one small spot Where my tired mind might rest, and call it home.

# Royal Naval Biography/Nazer, Henry

Layout 2
HENRY NAZER, Esq. [Commander.]
Is a nephew to Admiral John Ferrier, under whose flag he was serving at the close of the war with France, in 1814, as lieutenant of the Scarborough 74, on the North Sea station. His first commission bears date May 2d, 1808.
​We next find this officer commanding the Vigilant revenue cruiser, which vessel was wrecked, through missing stays, when working out of Torbay, Dec. 5th, 1819. He lastly commanded the Badger, and, in that cruiser captured, near Dover, a large smuggling cutter, after a running fight attended with bloodshed. This prize, valued at near 30,000/., was lost to the captors, through the mismanagement of the then solicitor of the Board of Customs, who instead of prosecuting the prisoners as smugglers, tried them for piracy and murder, on which charges they were acquitted, and the vessel in consequence released. The solicitor was very properly dismissed from his office; but Lieutenant Nazer obtained no compensation, either for his disappointment or for a wound which he received while pursuing the smuggler.
This officer was advanced to his present rank on the 28th Aug. 1828. He married a Miss Woollnough.
