THUNBERG, Carl Peter (1743–1828), an eminent traveller, and one of the most distinguished botanists of the school of Linnæus, was born in 1743. He became a pupil of Linnæus at the university of Upsala, where he graduated in medicine in 1770. Obtaining a travelling scholarship, he visited Holland, whence he embarked on a voyage of exploration to Java, in quest of vegetable treasures. He sailed as far as the Cape of Good Hope in 1771, and three years afterwards went to Japan, remaining five years, engaged in making collections of plants, and in observing the habits, manners, and language of the people. On his return in 1779 he visited England, and made the acquaintance of Sir Joseph Banks. In 1777 he was made demonstrator of botany at Upsala, and he succeeded Linnæus as professor of botany in 1784. Thunberg published in 1784 his Flora Japonica; in 1788 he began to publish his travels. He completed his Prodromus Plantarum in 1800, in 1805 his Icones Plantarum, and in 1813 his Flora Capensis. Thunberg published numerous memoirs in the Transactions of many Swedish and foreign scientific societies, of sixty-six of which he was an honorary member. He died in 1828.

See also Thurles on Wikipedia; Thurles in the 11th Edition; and the disclaimer.
THURLES, an ancient market-town of Ireland, in the county of Tipperary, and the seat of the Catholic archdiocese of Cashel, is pleasantly situated on the Suir, and on the Great Southern and Western Railway, 46 miles east of Limerick, 29 west from Kilkenny, and 87 south west of Dublin. The cathedral of St Patrick is a beautiful building, erected at a cost of £45,000. The town is the seat of other important Catholic establishments, including an Ursuline convent, in which is a large boarding-school for young ladies; a Presentation convent; St Patrick's Catholic college (1829) for ecclesiastical students, where was held in 1850 the synod of Thurles, composed of all the Catholic bishops of Ireland; and an establishment of Christian Brothers, who devote themselves to the instruction of boys on the Lancastrian method. The town has a considerable agricultural and retail trade. The population was 5008 in 1871, and 4850 in 1881.
Originally the town was called Durlas O Fogarty. In the 10th century it was the scene of the defeat of the Irish by the Danes. A preceptory was founded here by the Knights Templars, who possessed themselves of a castle erected early in the 13th century. A castle was subsequently erected by James Butler, first lord palatine of Tipperary, of which till recently a tower still remained.

# Erotica/An Appeal

An Appeal
My love is all too great for speech, The words that swell upon my tongue Fall still-born back, unsaid, unsung; Canst not divine The mute appeal that shines from each Of my soul's windows, lit within By burning love, yet does not win Return from thine? ​O, let one answering look appease The thirst of life's parched desert lands, Down the long reaches of whose sands I wander lone, Then shall the wilderness with trees Bud, in whose branches all day long Birds shall awake and break in song For thee mine own.
# Erotica/A Queen

A Queen
A queen—he loved her, His queen—he moved her For she was human.
Ermine robes, jewelled crown, Thrust aside, thrown down,
Left but a woman.
And did they blame her? Or could it shame her? No! love became her.
# Erotica/Because

Because
Because in years ago Two people lived and loved, Because two hearts were moved By the same mighty throe That thrilled them through and through, A nation is alive.
A nation is alive, Though he and she are dead. From that glad marriage-bed Their spirits still survive,
And to the ages give Their immortality. ​Their immortality, Blent in their children's child, Glad, sad or mad, or mild, What was, still is, must be, Like the eternal sea, Ever in ebb and flow.
Ever in ebb and flow Their immortality Beats onward like the sea. Because in years ago Two people loved, lo! A nation is alive.
# Erotica/A Lustrum

A Lustrum
A lustrum has not sped since first we met.
How many shall have ere we meet again? Thou hast gone forth from this our world of pain Leaving me heavy-hearted, with eyes wet,
Before my manhood's empty shrine—and yet I'd fain believe we did not love in vain.
# Erotica/A Reflection

A Reflection
Holding a mirror in an idle hand, I chanced to breath thereon, When through the film there gleamed A sudden face that seemed Hers I had made my own Once in that far-off sunny stranger land,
Once, and once only, had I held her, kissed Her eyes that through her hair Shone starlike, lit with heat From fires that throbbed and beat In her brown bosom bare, Long blanch'd since then beneath Time's nether mist. ​I had not thought of her for years on years, Nor thought I of her when I breathed, and brought her back Down memory's vagrant track, Sweet even now as then, But seen, alas, through blurring haze of tears
That sprang unbidden to my startled eyes, When that face on my gaze Burned sudden-wise, and I Bent down with a great cry, As in those far-off days I bent to her red mouth 'neath alien skies.
Though the film fading from the surface glass Banished her from my mind, It left a sharp regret That rankles even yet Implanted there behind, For that lost day, regret that will not pass.
# Erotica/A Vision

A Vision
Lo, all her body clothed with love, Meet for the kisses of a King, My lady cometh, and the spring Scatters its sweetness from above.
Through gates of horn she issueth, Down pathways of the land of dreams, Her footsteps softly fall, she seems Re-risen from the hand of death.
The violets bud beneath her tread, The teeming earth in tongues of flame Spits lambent crocus shoots, with shame Each challenged snowdrop hangs its head. ​She stands and stretches out to me Her white arms, whiter than desire, Some seven times heated in God's fire; All Love's alluring bravery
Glows in her slight transfigured frame, My heart throbs wildly in my breast, Charged with vague yearnings, long supprest As her lips move to form my name.
But ere one syllable can pass Those red lips where my lips have kissed, The vision rolls up like a mist, Or breath that fadeth from a glass,
Leaving me lone with longing cries Choked backward, whilst my surcharged sight Aches sparklingly, as closing night Thickens its pressure on my eyes.
# Erotica/"One Year Saw Twain Made One"

"One Year Saw Twain Made One"
One year saw twain made one And one become as three, Then he remained alone For they had ceased to be. Fair graft and blossom failing left a scarred tree!
—O solitary soul, Not here, nor yet, thy goal.
# Erotica/'Twixt Ivory Pales

'Twixt Ivory Pales
RONDEAU
'Twixt ivory pales uprose a precious dome, A shrine thatched over where no man might come, For vestals only could the entrance win To worship her who sat enthroned therein— A Goddess fresh begotten of the foam.
Until one day I that way chanced to roam, Half open stood the gateway in the gloom, Revealing splendours of the shrine within 'Twixt ivory pales. ​Marshalling my forces without beat of drum, The next dark night when Nature' face was dumb, I forced the ward and swiftly entered in Regardless of the sacrilege and sin. The shrine was mine—and now I call it home 'Twixt ivory pales.
# Erotica/A Portrait

A Portrait
Shot gold and shadow brown, her glorious hair Seemeth to hold faint sunbeams tangled where Its mazy ringlets cluster o'er a brow Built low and broad, which shines as white as snow. Rose-tinted cheek, straight nose, and pouting mouth, Breath laden with all spices of the south, Whose lips' red luscious ripeness draw my soul Out of my breast. Her form's distracting whole Perfection from the tiny close-set ear O'er shapely neck and bosom which appear Smooth swelling fields to court an amorous kiss (Ah, what a banquet for my soul were this), Melting in gracious lines t'wards hands and feet Fashioned Titania-like for any faery meet— No fault; no flaw; Love spreads a cloudless sky In her unfathomable eyes, till I, Bending my lips to hers, become, alas, aware That in her chin deceit lurks dimpled there.
# Erotica/Above Sonnenburg

Above Sonnenburg
The crumbling ruins of the past Are left behind and on the hill We rest our horses and are still; Thought alone stirs, while from the vast Stone quarries sounds the clinking drill.
So, loved one, leave behind the strife And wreckage of your past; we'll take Fresh stone from the fair future, make Ourselves a house of light and life; Your eyes were sealed, you now awake.

See also Edward Sugden, 1st Baron St Leonards on Wikipedia; Edward Sugden, 1st Baron St Leonards, on Wikipedia; Edward Burtenshaw Sugden, 1st Baron St Leonards, in the 11th Edition; and the disclaimer.
ST LEONARDS, Edward Burtenshaw Sugden, Lord (1781–1875), lord chancellor of England, was the son of a hairdresser in Duke Street, Westminster, and was born in February 1781. After practising for some years as a conveyancer, he was called to the bar at Lincoln’s Inn in 1807, having already published his well-known treatise on the Law of Vendors and Purchasers. In 1822 he was made king’s counsel and chosen a bencher of Lincoln’s Inn. He was returned at different times for various boroughs to the House of Commons, where he made himself prominent by his opposition to the Reform Bill of 1832. He was appointed solicitor-general in 1829, was named lord chancellor of Ireland in 1834, and again filled the same office from 1841 to 1846. Under Lord Derby’s first administration in 1852 he became lord chancellor and was raised to the peerage as Lord St Leonards. In this position he devoted himself with energy and vigour to the reform of the law; Lord Derby on his return to power in 1858 again offered him the same office, which from considerations of health he declined. He continued, however, to take an active interest especially in the legal matters that came before the House of Lords, and bestowed his particular attention on the reform of the law of property. He died at Boyle Farm, Thames Ditton, 29th January 1875.
Lord St Leonards was the author of various important legal publications, many of which have passed through several editions. Besides the treatise on purchasers already mentioned, they include Powers, Cases decided by the House of Lords, Gilbert on Uses, New Real Property Laws, and Handybook of Property Law.

See also Edward Law, 1st Baron Ellenborough on Wikipedia; Edward Law, 1st Baron Ellenborough, on Wikipedia; Edward Law, 1st Baron Ellenborough, in the 11th Edition; and the disclaimer.
ELLENBOROUGH, Edward Law, Baron (1750–1818), chief—justice of the Court of King’s Bench, was born on the 16th November 1750, at Great Salkeld, in Cumberland, of which place his father, afterwards bishop of Carlisle, was at the time rector. Educated at the Charterhouse school and at St Peter’s College, Cambridge, he passed as third wrangler, and was soon afterwards elected to a fellowship at Trinity. In spite of his father’s strong wish that he should take orders, he chose the legal profession, and on quitting the university was entered at Lincoln’s Inn. After spending five years as a “ Special pleader under the bar,” he was called to the bar in 1780. He chose the Northern Circuit, and in a very short time obtained a lucrative practice and a high reputation. In 1787 he was appointed principal counsel for \Varren Hastings in the celebrated impeachment tr-ial befom thP House of Lords, and the ability with which he conducted the defence was universally recognized. He had commenced his political career as a Whig, but, like many others, he saw in the French Revolution a reason for changing sides, and be- came a supporter of Pitt. On the formation of the Addington ministry in 1801, he was appointed attorney- general, and in the following year he succeeded Lord Kenyon as chief—justice of the King’s Bench. On being raised to the bench he was created a peer, taking his title from the village of Ellenborough in Cumberland, Where his maternal ancestors had long held a small patrimony. In 1806, on the formation of Lord Grenville’s ministry “ of all the talents,” Lord Ellenborough declined the offer of the Great Seal, but accepted a seat in the Cabinet. His doing so while he retained the chief-justiceship was much criticised at the time, and, though not without precedent, is open to obvious objections on constitutional grounds. As a judge he had grave faults, though his decisions displayed profound legal knowledge, and in mercantile law especially Were reckoned of high authority. He was harsh and over- bearing to counsel, and in the political trials which were so frequent in his time showed an unmistakable bias against the accused. In the trial of Hone for blasphemy in 1817, Ellenborough directed the jury to ﬁnd a verdict of guilty, and their acquittal of the priSUner is generally said to have hastened his death. He resigned his judicial ofﬁce in N ovem— ber 1818, and died on the 13th December following.
# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Edward Thurlow, Baron Thurlow

See also Edward Thurlow, 1st Baron Thurlow, on Wikipedia; Edward Thurlow, 1st Baron Thurlow, in the 11th Edition; and the disclaimer.
Lord Thurlow was a master of a coarse caustic wit, which habitually in his private and too frequently in his public life displayed itself in profanity. He was a good classical scholar and made occasional translations in verse from Homer and Euripides. His judicial and his ecclesiastical patronage was wisely exercised; he was the patron of Dr Johnson and of Crabbe, and was the first to detect the great legal merits of Eldon. Thurlow's personal appearance was striking. His dark complexion, harsh but regular features, severe and dignified demeanour, piercing black eyes and bushy eyebrows, doubtless contributed to his professional and political eminence and provoked the sarcasm of Fox that he looked wiser than any man ever was. Yet he was far from being an impostor. By intense though irregular application he had acquired a wide if not a profound knowledge of law. Clear-headed, self-confident, and fluent, able at once to reason temperately and to assert strongly, capable of grasping, rapidly assimilating, and forcibly reproducing minute and complicated details, he possessed all the qualities which command success. His speeches in the trial of the duchess of Kingston for bigamy (20 S. T., 355-651) are singularly vigorous and effective, while his famous opening in the Douglas Peerage case and his argument for the crown in Campbell v. Hall (20 S. T., 312-316) show that he might have rendered high service to the judicial literature of his country had he relied more upon his own industry and less upon the learning of Hargrave and Kenyon

EDAM, a town of the Netherlands, in the province of North Holland and arrondissement of Hoorn, about 11 miles north-east of Amsterdam, and hardly a mile from the present limits of the Zuider Zee, at the junction of two branch canals. It has a fine town-house, an exchange, and a fish-market, and one of its two Reformed churches is adorned with stained glass, and ranks among the most beautiful buildings of the kind in the province. Ship-building, rope-spinning, and salt-boiling are carried on, and the place gives its name to a well-known description of “sweet-milk” cheese—Zoetemelks Kaas. It was at Edam that nearly the whole of Admiral De Ruyter's fleet was constructed. Population of the commune in 1869, 5152, and of the town 3356.
