# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Ishmael

​ISHMAEL. A righteous Israelite of the tribe of Ephraim, who, with his family, which was large, lived in Jerusalem, B. C. 600. At this time Ishmael must have been advanced in years, for he had five marriageable daughters, besides several grown up sons. By the commandment of the Lord, the sons of Lehi returned from their encampment on the border of the Red Sea to Jerusalem, and invited Ishmael and his family to join them in their journey to a promised land. The Lord softened their hearts and they accepted the invitation, left their home, and went down with the young men into the wilderness; though from the oft-repeated rebellious conduct of some of Ishmael's sons, it appears that they never had much faith, if any at all, in the prophetic mission of Lehi, or in the woes pronounced upon Jerusalem by the servants of the Most High. Soon after the arrival of the party at the tents of Lehi, the eldest daughter of Ishmael was married to Zoram, and four others wedded the sons of Lehi. In the vicissitudes of the toilsome journey in the Arabian desert, Ishmael appears to have been faithful to the Lord, but when the company reached a place to which was given the name of Nahom, Ishmael died, and was there buried. His demise was the cause of much sorrow to his family, and was made the pretext, by its rebellious portion, for renewed murmuring and fresh outbreaks. (See Nephi.)

​ISRAELITES. The people of Israel; called by that name once in the Book of Mormon. (Helaman, 8:11).
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Isabel

​ISABEL. A harlot of the land of Siron, who stole away the hearts of many. Among those seduced by her meretricious charms was Corianton, the son of Alma, the younger, who forsook the ministry among the Zoramites, on purpose to enjoy her company, greatly to the injury and scandal of the work of God among that people, and to the great grief of his father (B. C. 75).
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Ishmaelites

​ISHMAELITES. The descendants of that Ishmael who, with his family, left his home in Jerusalem and accompanied Lehi on his journey to the promised land. After the death of Lehi they became absorbed in the Lamanite race and formed a part of that people. When corruption and dissension had entered into the true church (A. C. 231), some reassumed the name of Ishmaelites. We are told (IV Nephi, 1:38), they who rejected the gospel were called Lamanites, and Lemuelites, and Ishmaelites; and they did not dwindle in unbelief, but they did wilfully rebel against the gospel of Christ; and they did teach their children that they should not believe, even as their fathers, from the beginning, did dwindle in unbelief.

CAREW, LADY ELIZABETH,
Authoress of a dramatic piece entitled "Mariam, the fair Queen of Jewry," which was published in 1613; lived in the reign of James the First of England. Lady Carew is supposed to have been the wife of Sir Henry Carew: and the works of several of her contemporaries are dedicated to her. There is not much of dramatic interest in "Mariam," but a fine vein of sentiment and feeling runs through it; one of the choruses on Revenge of Injuries, has often been quoted; and is worthy of a place in any collection of standard poetry, for its noble and generous simplicity.
# A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Carlemigelli, Aspasie

Layout 2
CARLEMIGELLI, ASPASIE,
Was born in Paris, in 1775, and was the daughter of one of the Prince de Conde's footmen. Her childhood was rendered so miserable, by the bad treatment she received from her mother, that she never spoke of it afterwards without the utmost horror. Obliged very early to labour for her own support, and left unprotected by her parents, she fell so violently in love, that she became dangerously ill, was thought deranged, and was sent to an asylum for the insane. But in her strongest paroxysms she never lost her judgment; and the physicians were accustomed to entrust her with the care of the other insane persons. She was released, but imprisoned again in 1793, for having spoken against the revolution. She was soon set free again; but they had taken from her all that she possessed, and, tired of her miserable life, she cried aloud in the streets, "God save the king!" But though she was again tried, she was acquitted.
Aspasie then endeavoured to obtain the condemnation of her mother, but in vain. She next turned her fury against the deputies who had caused so much bloodshed, and attempted the life of two. She was tried for this, and boldly avowed her intention. She would allow no one to defend her, and heard her condemnation with the greatest impassibility. She was guillotined, in 1798, at the age of twenty-three.

CANTOFOLI, GENEVRA,
A Female artist of Bologna, pupil of Elizabeth Sirani. She practised historical painting with success; and in the church of St. Procolo, in Bologna, is a picture by her of the Lord's Supper, of which good judges speak favourably, as they do of some of her other altar-pieces; particularly of St. Tommaso di Villanuovo, in St. Giacomo Maggiore. Her personal history is unknown. She lived in the seventeenth century.
# A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Carey, Alice and Phœbe

CAREY, ALICE and PHŒBE,
Have, within the last few years, written poetry that justly places them among the gifted daughters of America. The lyre seems to obey their hearts as the Æolian harp does the wind, every impulse gushing out in song. The father of these ladies was a native of Vermont, who removed to Ohio whilst it was a territory. The ​wild place where he settled has become a pleasant village, not far from Cincinnati; there they were born, and have always resided. The father has been greatly blessed in his children; surely with such treasures he must be rich indeed. The excellent mother of these sweet singers is no longer living; the daughters are thus invested with the matronly duties of house-keeping, and, to their praise be it recorded, they never neglect domestic matters even for the wooings of the Muse.
Griswold, in his "Female Poets of America," has thus described the characteristics of these sisters. "Alice Carey evinces in many of her poems a genuine imagination and a creative energy that challenges peculiar praise. We have perhaps no other author, so young, in whom the poetical faculty is so largely developed. Her sister writes with vigour, and a hopeful and genial spirit, and there are many felicities of expression, particularly in her later pieces. She refers more than Alice to the common experience, and has, perhaps, a deeper sympathy with that philosophy and those movements of the day, which look for a nearer approach to equality, in culture, fortune, and social relations."
A volume of "Poems, by Alice and Phoebe Carey," was published in 1850. "Hualco, a Romance of the Golden Age of Tezcuco," by Alice Carey, appeared in 1851. The poem is founded upon adventures of a Mexican Prince, before the conquest, as related by Clavigero, Torquemada, and other historians.

CAMPBELL, DOROTHEA PRIMROSE,
Was a native of Lerwick, in the Shetland Islands. In 1816, she published a volume of poems, which were dedicated by permission to Sir Walter Scott, who made her acquaintance when he visited the Northern Isles two years previously. The character of her poetry, chiefly suggested by the wild rough scenery amid which she lived, is healthy in tone and moral in sentiment. Unlike most authors, she seems to have been appreciated by the people about her, and to have gained "honour in her own country;" and for this reason, if for nothing else, is entitled to a place among our "remarkable women."

CAMPIGLIA, MADDALENA.
Was a native of Vicenza, and born in 1550. She was educated in a nunnery, and celebrated for her literary talents. She dedicated one of her works to Torquato Tassa, with whom she corresponded. She wrote, among other works, "Azione Dramatica," published in 1588. Her death occurred in 1595.
# A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Carlen, Emily

Layout 2
CARLEN, EMILY,
Is a native of Sweden; her maiden name was Smith. She began her career as an authoress very early in life, for the purpose of adding to the means of her parents, who were in narrow circumstances. Her inspiration was thus of thus noblest kind, and more ​poetical than the abstract love of fame. Her works were highly successful, soon brought her into notice, and obtained her the acquaintance of many distinguished personages. Her amiable character and exemplary life have secured her consideration in all the circles of Stockholm.
Four of her works have been presented, by translation, to the Anglo-Saxon reading public. They all display originality and inventive genius, together with a poetic and impassioned spirit; they have all the fault which proceeds from a rich and exuberant imagination—too many characters and too many incidents; this always weakens the interest, flattens the pathos of a story, and abates the attention of the reader. To "discreetly blot," is one of the nicest and most delicate parts of an author's craft; it requires judgment, experience, and taste, and is unattainable by many; but the abilities of Mrs. Carlen appear such as to assure her of success, if she would do what the French wit complained he had no leisure for—"take time to make her works shorter."
"The Magic Goblet" is spoiled by a narrative of crime and misery, introduced towards the end; it may be remarked that, as the story hinges on this, it could not be omitted; but Mrs. Carlen shows plainly that, with her fertility of invention, she might have constructed a different plot. "The Rose of Thistle Island" is too replete with horrors—the curtain falls on too many of the dead and dying. The marriage of Amman, which is vaguely spoken of, is no consolation—it is evidently none to him—and inspires the reader with no pleasure. But these dark picturings belong to Swedish life; the people of that country have a hard lot; ignorance, oppression, and want, never soften human nature.
The "Brothers" and the "Temptations of Wealth," are not equal to the first two productions. Their beauties and defects are, however, of the same character. Upon the whole, Mrs. Carlen appears to yield to few women of our day in original genius. Some of the passages have an approach to sublimity in the descriptions of nature, and of moral suffering; many of the most forcible touches cannot be comprehended or appreciated, but in connection with the entire works.
It must not be forgotten that our medium of judging this authoress, has been through particularly bad translations; this prevents any remark on the various poems which are interspersed.
# A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Capillana

CAPILLANA,
A Peruvian princess, who, having become a widow very young, retired from court to the country, about the time that Pizarro appeared on the coast. Capillana received kindly the persons he had sent to reconnoitre, and expressed a desire to see the general Pizarro came, and an attachment soon sprang up between them. He endeavoured to convert Capillana to the Christian faith, but for some time without success; however, while studying the Spanish language, she became a Christian. On the death of Pizarro, in 1541, she retired again to her residence in the country. In the library of the Dominicans of Peru, a manuscript of hers is preserved, in which are painted, by her, ancient Peruvian monuments, with a short historical explanation in Castilian. There are also representations of many of their plants, with curious dissertations on their properties.

COMA BERENICES (kō'-ma ber-e-nī'-sez)— BERENICE'S HAIR.
Location—A line drawn from Regulus to Zosma, in Leo, and prolonged an equal distance, strikes this fine cluster, which is 18 degrees northeast of Zosma.
The group lies well within a triangle formed by Denebola, Arcturus in Boötes, and Cor Caroli in Canes Venatici, which triangle is the upper half of the Diamond of Virgo.
Twenty or thirty stars in this group can be counted with binoculars, and the group can be easily distinguished with the naked eye, when the moon is not visible.

CORONA BOREALIS (kō-rō'nä bō-rē-a'-lis)—THE NORTHERN CROWN.
Location.—A line drawn from Deneb, in Cygnus, to Vega, in Lyra, and projected a little over 40 degrees, terminates in the Crown, which lies between Hercules and Boötes, and just above the diamond-shaped group of stars in the head of the Serpent. The characteristic semicircle resembling a crown is easily traced out. The principal stars are of the fourth magnitude excepting Gemma, which is a second-magnitude star.
Gemma, sometimes called Alphacca, forms with the stars Seginus and Arcturus, in Boötes, an isosceles triangle, the vertex of which is at Arcturus. A line drawn from Vega in Lyra to Arcturus in Boötes passes through Corona. The star letters in Corona spell "Bagdei."
Note "τ" Coronas, a star that appeared suddenly May 12, 1866, as a second-magnitude star. It was known as the "Blaze Star" and was visible to the naked eye only eight days, fading at that time to a tenth-magnitude star, and then rising to an eighth-magnitude, where it still remains.

CRATER (kra'-ter)—THE CUP. (Face South.)
Location—Crater is situated 15 degrees west of Corvus, and due south of (θ) Leonis. It is easily distinguished by reason of a beautiful and very striking semicircle of six stars of the fourth magnitude, forming the bowl of the cup.
The constellation resembles a goblet with its base resting on the coils of Hydra.
The star Alkes is common to Hydra and Crater, and may be seen 24 degrees southeast of Alphard in the heart of Hydra.
It is distinguished by its forming an equilateral triangle with (α) and (γ), stars of the same magnitude 6 degrees south and east of it.
Corvus and Crater are to be seen half way up the southern sky during the early evenings in spring.
(δ) is now the lucida.

CAPRICORNUS (kap-ri-kôr'-nus)— THE SEA GOAT. (Face Southwest.)
Location.—A line drawn from (α) Pegasi through (ζ) and (θ) in the same constellation, and projected about 25 degrees, strikes (α) and (β) in Capricornus.
This constellation contains three principal stars—(α) and (β) mentioned above, and (δ) about 20 degrees east of them.
The water jar of Aquarius is about the same distance north-east of (δ) Capricorni that Fomalhaut, in the Southern Fish, is southeast of it.
(α) has a companion which can be seen by the naked eye. It is a fine sight in binoculars. These two stars are gradually separating.
(β) is a double star, one being blue, the other yellow.
The constellation resembles a chapeau, or peaked hat, upside down.
The stars in the head of the Sea Goat, (α) and (β), are only 2 degrees apart, and can hardly be mistaken by an observer facing the southwestern sky during the early evening in autumn.
Five degrees east of (δ) is the point announced by Le Verrier as the position of his predicted new planet, Neptune.
Flammarion claims that the Chinese astronomers noted the five planets in conjunction in Capricornus, in the year 2449 B.C.
# A Field Book of the Stars/Cassiopeia

The Constellations of Autumn. Supernova 1572
Layout 2
CASSIOPEIA (kas-i-ō-pē'-ya)— THE LADY IN THE CHAIR. (Face North.)
Location.—A line drawn from (δ) Ursæ Majoris, through Polaris, strikes (α) Cassiopeiæ. It is situated the same distance from Polaris as Ursa Major, and about midway between Polaris and the zenith in the Milky Way. Cassiopeia is characterized by a zigzag row of stars which form a rude "W," but in mid-autumn, to an observer facing north, the "W" appears more like an "M," and is almost overhead. Note the spot marked 1572. This is where a very famous temporary star appeared in that year. It was bright enough at one time to be seen in full sunshine. The star (η) is comparatively near to us, its light taking not much over twenty years to reach us. Caph is almost exactly in the equinoctial colure, or first meridian. It is 30 degrees north of (α) Andromedæ, with which and the Pole Star and (α) Pegasi it forms a straight line.
Caph is equidistant from the Pole, and exactly opposite the star Megres in Ursa Major; with (α) Andromedæ and (γ) Pegasi it marks the equinoctial colure. These stars are known as "The Three Guides."
The chair can be readily traced out, bearing in mind that β, α, and γ form three of the four corners of the back, and δ and ε, one of the front legs. The word "Bagdei," made up of the letters for the principal stars, assists the memory.

CYGNUS (sig'-nus)—THE SWAN, OR THE NORTHERN CROSS.
Location.—The star (α) or Deneb, the brightest star in Cygnus, is at the top of the cross, and a little over 20 degrees east of Vega. It forms a triangle with Vega and Altair in Aquila—Altair being at the apex, about 35 degrees from Deneb and Vega.
The star (β) or Albireo is at the base of the cross, and a line drawn from Vega to Altair nearly touches it.
(β) is a beautiful colored double for a small telescope.
Note "61," the second nearest star to us. It was the first star whose distance was measured. If the distance from the earth to the sun equals one inch, the earth to "61" equals 7½ miles.
(ο) is a double. There is a little star near it.
Half way from Albireo to the stars (ζ) and (ε) in Aquila is a group of six or seven stars in a straight row, with a garland of other stars hanging from the centre.
The cross is nearly perfect and easily traced out. It lies almost wholly in the Milky Way.
Note "The Coal Sack," the dark gap in the Milky Way.
Cygnus contains an unusual number of deeply colored stars.
# A Field Book of the Stars/Cepheus

The Constellations of Autumn.
Layout 2
CEPHEUS (sē'-fūs) (Face North.)
Location.—A line drawn from (α) to (β) Cassiopeiæ and prolonged about 18 degrees strikes (α) Cephi. The nearest bright star west of Polaris is (γ) Cephi. Cepheus is an inconspicuous constellation, lying partly in the Milky Way. A view of this constellation through binoculars will repay the observer. Cepheus is characterized by a rude square, one side of which is the base of an isosceles triangle. Look for the so-called garnet star (μ), probably the reddest star visible to the naked eye in the United States. The star (ζ) has a blue companion star.
(α) forms an equilateral triangle with Polaris and (ε) Cassiopeiæ.
(δ) is a variable double. One of the pair is yellow, the other blue.
It is claimed that Cepheus was known to the Chaldæans twenty-three centuries before our era.
Surrounding δ, ε, ζ, and λ, which mark the king's head, is a vacant space in the Milky Way, similar to the Coal Sack of Cygnus.

CETUS (sē'-tus)— THE WHALE. (Face Southeast.)
Location.—A line drawn from Polaris, to (δ) Cassiopeiæ, and prolonged two and one third times its original length, reaches the centre of this constellation.
It lies just below Aries and the Triangles, and resembles the figure of the prehistoric icthyosaurus, while some see in the outline an easy chair. The head of the beast is characterized by a clearly traced pentagon, about 20 degrees southeast of Aries. The brightest star in the constellation is (α) Menkar, of the second magnitude. It is at one apex of the pentagon, about 15 degrees east of Al Rischa in Pisces, and 37 degrees directly south of Algol, (β. Persei).
The noted variable Mira (ο) is the chief object of interest in the constellation. It is a little over 10 degrees southwest of Menkar, and 7 degrees southeast of Al Rischa. It changes from a star of the second magnitude so as to become invisible once in three hundred and thirty-four days. Ten degrees south of it are four small stars about 3 degrees apart, in the breast and paws. These form a square.
The body of the creature is kite-shaped. (ζ) is a naked-eye double.
Mira lies almost exactly on a line joining (γ) and (ζ), a little nearer the former.

COLUMBA NOACHI (co-lum'-bä nō-ä'-ki)—NOAH'S DOVE. (Face South.)
Location.—Columba is situated just south of Lepus. A line drawn from Rigel, in Orion, to (β) Leporis, and prolonged as far again, ends near (α) and (β), the two brightest stars in Columba.
A line drawn from the easternmost star in the belt of Orion, 32 degrees directly south, will point out Phaet, in Columba. It makes with Sirius, in Canis Major, and Naos, in the Ship, a large equilateral triangle.
The star (β) Columbæ may be known by means of a smaller star just east of it, marked (γ).
With binoculars a rude rectangle can be seen. Its position is traced in dotted lines on the diagram.

CORVUS (kôr'-vus)—THE CROW. (Face South.)
Location.—A line drawn from the Bee Hive, in Cancer, through Regulus in Leo, and prolonged about 40 degrees, ends near the conspicuous quadrilateral which distinguishes Corvus. The brightest star in this region of the sky is Spica in Virgo. It lies about 10 degrees northeast of Algorab.
(ζ) is a double star for an opera-glass. A faint pair of stars lie close below and to the west of (β). The Crow is represented as standing on, and pecking at, the coils of Hydra. The star Al Chiba is in the Crow's bill.
Corvus was known as the Raven in Chaucer's time.
