WILLIAM BROWELL, Esq [Retired Captain.]
Lieutenant-Governor, and a Director, of the Royal Hospital at Greenwich; and a Trustee of the Naval Charitable Society.
This officer obtained post rank Nov. 29, 1794; and commanded the Sans Pareil of 80 guns, bearing the flag of Lord Hugh Seymour, in the action off l’Orient, June 23, 1795. He was appointed a Captain of Greenwich Hospital in 1805, and became Lieutenant-Governor of that establishment early in 1809. Mrs. Browell, who was a daughter of Rear-Admiral Faulknor, died Sept. 20, in the same year. ​

* ↑ The Royal Hospital at Greenwich, which now stands a proud and admirable monument of national gratitude, may be said to have originated in private benevolence, and affection for the service, to the reception of whose honorable and meritorious veterans it is appropriated. Those great commanders Sir Francis Drake and Sir John Hawkins, laid the foundation of this most excellent institution, in the reign of Queen Elizabeth (anno 1587). They also assisted in the creation of that noble fund, the Chest at Chatham, of which mention has already been made in our 1st Vol. p. 93. In the year 1694, the establishment at Greenwich first assumed a regular form. King William and Queen Mary granted the royal palace at that place, to be converted into an hospital for the reception of decayed seamen; and also a sum for extending the building. In 1699, an Act of Parliament directed that sixpence per month should be deducted from the wages of all seamen, both in the royal navy and in the merchants’ service, for its support; and on the 1st Dec. 1704, a Lieutenant-Governor and other officers were appointed, previous to the admission of the pensioners. The first mention we find of the appointment of a First Master and Governor, is in the year 1708. In 1735, the funds of Greenwich Hospital were considerably augmented by the appropriation of the rents of the attainted Earl of Derwentwater and Charles Ratcliff, which by Act of Parliament were directed to be applied, first, to the completion and beautifying of the building; after which, to the support and maintenance of its inmates. In 1744, all unclaimed shares of prize-money, at the expiration of three years, were ordered to be paid into the Royal Hospital. The following notice appeared in the London Gazette of Feb. 9, 1802; “A gentleman who will not permit his name to be known, having by a confidential friend sent to Lord Hood, Governor of Greenwich Hospital, the amount of the sale of 10,000l. in the 3 per cent consols, for the use and benefit of the said hospital; the Governors and Directors take this method of returning their most grateful thanks for the very generous gift. This truly benevolent gentleman has also given the like sum to the Chest at Chatham.”

# Responsibilities/Fallen Majesty

FALLEN MAJESTY
Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
And even old men's eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping place,
Babbling of fallen majesty, records what's gone.
The lineaments, a heart that laughter has made sweet,
These, these remain, but I record what's gone. A crowd
Will gather, and not know it walks the very street
Whereon a thing once walked that seemed a burning cloud.
# Responsibilities/At the Abbey Theatre

Dear Craoibhin Aoibhin, look into our case.
When we are high and airy hundreds say
That if we hold that flight they'll leave the place,
While those same hundreds mock another day
Because we have made our art of common things,
So bitterly, you'd dream they longed to look
All their lives through into some drift of wings.
You've dandled them and fed them from the book
And know them to the bone; impart to us— We'll keep the secret—a new trick to please.
Is there a bridle for this Proteus
That turns and changes like his draughty seas?
Or is there none, most popular of men,
But when they mock us that we mock again?
# Responsibilities/Closing Rhymes

While I, from that reed-throated whisperer
Who comes at need, although not now as once
A clear articulation in the air
But inwardly, surmise companions
Beyond the fling of the dull ass's hoof,
—Ben Jonson's phrase— and find when June is come At Kyle-na-no under that ancient roof
A sterner conscience and a friendlier home,
I can forgive even that wrong of wrongs,
Those undreamt accidents that have made me
—Seeing that Fame has perished this long while Being but a part of ancient ceremony— Notorious, till all my priceless things
Are but a post the passing dogs defile.
# Responsibilities/King and No King

KING AND NO KING
'Would it were anything but merely voice!'
The No King cried who after that was King,
Because he had not heard of anything
That balanced with a word is more than noise;
Yet Old Romance being kind, let him prevail
Somewhere or somehow that I have forgot,
Though he'd but cannon—Whereas we that had thought
To have lit upon as clean and sweet a tale
Have been defeated by that pledge you gave
In momentary anger long ago;
And I that have not your faith, how shall I know
That in the blinding light beyond the grave
We'll find so good a thing as that we have lost?
The hourly kindness, the day's common speech,
The habitual content of each with each
When neither soul nor body has been crossed.

BEGGAR TO BEGGAR CRIED
'Time to put off the world and go somewhere
And find my health again in the sea air,' Beggar to beggar cried, being frenzy-struck,
'And make my soul before my pate is bare.'
'And get a comfortable wife and house
To rid me of the devil in my shoes,'
Beggar to beggar cried, being frenzy-struck,
'And the worse devil that is between my thighs.'
'And though I'd marry with a comely lass,
She need not be too comely— let it pass,' Beggar to beggar cried, being frenzy-struck,
'But there's a devil in a looking-glass.'
'Nor should she be too rich, because the rich
Are driven by wealth as beggars by the itch,' Beggar to beggar cried, being frenzy-struck,
'And cannot have a humorous happy speech.'
'And there I'll grow respected at my ease, And hear amid the garden's nightly peace,' Beggar to beggar cried, being frenzy-struck,
'The wind-blown clamor of the barnacle-geese.'
# Responsibilities/At Galway Races

AT GALWAY RACES
There where the course is,
Delight makes all of the one mind,
The riders upon the galloping horses,
The crowd that closes in behind:
We, too, had good attendance once,
Hearers and hearteners of the work;
Aye, horsemen for companions,
Before the merchant and the clerk
Breathed on the world with timid breath.
Sing on: sometime, and at some new moon,
We'll learn that sleeping is not death,
Hearing the whole earth change its tune,
Its flesh being wild, and it again
Crying aloud as the race course is,
And we find hearteners among men
That ride upon horses.
# Responsibilities/His Dream

HIS DREAM
I swayed upon the gaudy stern
The butt end of a steering oar,
And everywhere that I could turn
Men ran upon the shore.
And though I would have hushed the crowd
There was no mother's son but said,
'What is the figure in a shroud
Upon a gaudy bed?'
And fishes bubbling to the brim
Cried out upon that thing beneath,
—It had such dignity of limb— By the sweet name of Death.
Though I'd my finger on my lip,
What could I but take up the song?
And fish and crowd and gaudy ship
Cried out the whole night long,
Crying amid the glittering sea,
Naming it with ecstatic breath,
Because it had such dignity
By the sweet name of Death.
# Responsibilities/An Appointment

Being out of heart with government
I took a broken root to fling
Where the proud, wayward squirrel went,
Taking delight that he could spring;
And he, with that low whinnying sound
That is like laughter, sprang again
And so to the other tree at a bound.
Nor the tame will, nor timid brain,
Bred that fierce tooth and cleanly limb
And threw him up to laugh on the bough;
No government appointed him.
# Responsibilities/Friends

Now must I these three praise— Three women that have wrought
What joy is in my days;
One that no passing thought,
Nor those unpassing cares,
No, not in these fifteen
Many times troubled years,
Could ever come between
Heart and delighted heart;
And one because her hand
Had strength that could unbind
What none can understand,
What none can have and thrive,
Youth's dreamy load, till she
So changed me that I live
Labouring in ecstasy.
And what of her that took
All till my youth was gone
With scarce a pitying look?
How should I praise that one?
When day begins to break
I count my good and bad,
Being wakeful for her sake,
Remembering what she had,
What eagle look still shows,
While up from my heart's root
So great a sweetness flows
I shake from head to foot.

# Rock of Ages

"Rock of Ages" is a popular Christian hymn by the Reverend Augustus Montague Toplady written in 1763 and first published in The Gospel Magazine in 1775.
"Rock of Ages" is usually sung to the hymn tune "Toplady" by Thomas Hastings or "Redhead 76" by Richard Redhead or "New City Fellowship" by James Ward. "Toplady" is most typical in the United States and "Redhead 76" in the United Kingdom, although both tunes circulate in the churches of both countries.

# Book Introduction - Hosea

Read first chapter of Hosea Hosea was a contemporary of Amos in Israel, and of Isaiah and Micah in Judah, and his ministry continued after the first, or Assyrian, captivity of the northern kingdom 2 Kings 15:29. His style is abrupt, metaphorical, and figurative. Israel is Jehovah's adulterous wife, repudiated, but ultimately to be purified and restored. This is Hosea's distinctive message, which may be summed up in his two words, Lo-ammi, "not my people," and Ammi, "my people." Israel is not merely apostate and sinful--that is said also; but her sin takes its character from the exalted relationship into which she has been brought. The book is in three parts:
* The dishonoured wife, 1:1-3:5.
* The sinful people, 4:1-13:8.
* The ultimate blessing and glory of Israel, 13:9-14:9.
The events recorded in Hosea cover a period of 60 years (Ussher)

# CHAPTER 1
## Verse 1

days i.e. of the 1260,1290, and 1335 days.

## Verse 9

my people "My people" is an expression used in the O.T. exclusively of Israel the nation. It is never used of the patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Matthew 2:6.

## Verse 10

Israel "Israel" in Hosea means the ten tribes forming the northern kingdom as distinguished from "Judah" (the tribes of Judah and Benjamin) forming the southern kingdom which adhered to the Davidic family. (See) 1 Kings 12:1-21. The promise of verse 10 awaits fulfilment. See "Israel" ; Genesis 12:2,3; Romans 11:26.

# CHAPTER 2
## Verse 2

She is not my wife That Israel is the wife of Jehovah Hosea 2:16-23, now disowned but yet to be restored, is the clear teaching of the passages. This relationship is not to be confounded with that of the Church of Christ. (See Scofield "John 3:29"). In the mystery of the Divine tri-unity both are true. The N.T. speaks of the Church as a virgin espoused to one husband 2 Corinthians 11:1,2 which could never be said of an adulterous wife, restored in grace. Israel is, then, to be the restored and forgiven wife of Jehovah, the Church the virgin wife of the Lamb ; John 3:29; Revelation 19:6-8. Israel Jehovah's earthly wife Hosea 2:23, the Church the Lamb's heavenly bride, Revelation 19:7.
