Edition of 1920. See also Gillyflower on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
GILLYFLOWER, a popular English name for some of the cruciferous plants most prized for the beauty and fragrance of their flowers, as the wallflowers and stocks; also for Hesperis matronalis, dame's rocket or dame's violet (q.v.). The name gillyflower has been regarded as a corruption of July-flower; but in Chaucer it appears in the form gilofre; and the French giroflée indicates the true derivation from girofle, a clove, the smell of the clove-gillyflower, or clove-pink, having suggested the name of that flower.

# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Glagolitic Alphabet

Edition of 1920. See also Glagolitic alphabet on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
GLAGOLITIC (glag-ō-lĭt'ĭk) ALPHABET, a Slavonic alphabet classed as ancient Bulgarian. There is a MS. of the 11th century written in this alphabet in the Vatican, containing extracts of the Gospels for each day in the year; there are extant also three other MSS. written in the same letters.
The origin of this alphabet is undiscoverable. It is older than the Cyrillac; it may be a modification of Greek cursive writing; perhaps it is connected with Armenian and Albanian alphabets. Its use is confined to the liturgical books of Dalmatian Slavs. Cyril, a monk of Constantinople, invented the Cyrillac alphabet, of which this has sometimes been considered a variant. Both of these differ from the current Russian alphabet.

# The Eyes of Texas

The Eyes of Texas' is the alma mater of the University of Texas at Austin. It is set to the tune of I've Been Working on the Railroad. The song was written in 1903 and lyrics were intended to poke fun at University President Colonel Prather. Prather was known for including in his speeches the admonition, "The Eyes of Texas are Upon You," meaning that the state of Texas was watching and expecting the students to go out and do great things. Students, faculty, and alumni of the University sing the song at Longhorn sports games and other events.
The eyes of Texas are upon you, All the live long day. The eyes of Texas are upon you, You cannot get away. Do not think you can escape them, At night, or early in the morn'. The eyes of Texas are upon you, 'Till Gabriel blows his horn!
# The Fables of Florian (tr. Phelps)/Closing Lines

CLOSING LINES.
'Tis done: the lyre is mute; My labors here must have an end; Though still the Muse might wrongs impute, That should perchance our manners mend, (If she but had an abler friend).
But no; her work would prove in vain; For the world's folly, int'rest, pride, Will e'er bring trouble in their train, However much they be decried. 'Tis vain that philosophic sects May censure man for his defects; They waste their wisdom and their rhymes. Let the world wag! Go with the times!
Or live retir'd, content and free, In some deep-hid obscurity. There, what could fail us that might bless
Our lives with perfect happiness? Save gentle peace, a tranquil lot; Our only wish to be forgot; Our sole endeavor how to shun The ills by which we're prey'd upon; With wealth enough with friends to share, But not to waken envy there.
THE END

# The Fables of Florian (tr. Phelps)/Death's Choice of Prime Minister

FABLE L. DEATH'S CHOICE OF PRIME MINISTER.
Once on a time there was a king Who wish'd his state more flourishing. In hell he rear'd his awful throne, (As King of Terrors he is known) And, as the case did much import, He call'd together his whole court. The question was what plague should be The chief aid to his majesty. First, from the lowest hell there came
Three spirits of most dreadful fame,  Fever, Gout, and War. Death gave them welcome; for, of all The ills that plague our earthly ball,  These most dreaded are. Then Pest steps forward—all agree That he too, has great potency. Then comes a Doctor, at whose name 'Twas evident he had a claim, Which caused e'en Death himself to doubt How his selection must turn out. But when the Vices all advance, Death could no longer hesitate Which most his service would enhance, Or which was his true candidate: Vice of all vice—Intemperance— He chose prime minister of state.
# The Fables of Florian (tr. Phelps)/Hercules in Heaven

FABLE XXVI. HERCULES IN HEAVEN.
When Hercules, his labors done, For his reward had Heaven won, The gods pressed forward to salute A hero of such wide repute. Minerva, Mars, and Venus came To show their rev'rence for his name; E'en Juno's self was quite polite Which fill'd the hero with delight. But when with those assembled there God Plutus came with lofty air, And gave his hand with haughty pride, Our hero turn'd his head aside.
"My son!" said Jupiter, "say why Such anger flashes from thine eye. What has this god e'er done to thee That thou with him so wroth shouldst be?"
"It is because I know him well: When I upon the earth did dwell, I saw him going hand in hand, With the worst knaves of all the land."

THE EIGHTH SIN

THE EIGHTH SIN.
THE EIGHTH SIN
BY
C. D. MORLEY
"There is no greater Sin after the seven deadly than to flatter oneself into an idea of being a great Poet." Letters of John Keats.
OXFORD B. H. BLACKWELL, BROAD STREET LONDON SIMPKIN, MARSHALL & CO. LIMITED MCMXII
​One must have an excuse. The only one I can offer is that many of these verses have already been refused (with charming tact) by reputable journals. According to the canons of one whose opinion I much value in these matters, that makes them all the more worthy of publication.
I wish I might include a poem by Lord Byron, which I passed off on this same critic as one of my own. He was gracious enough to remark, "Not bad for a beginner!" May he be as lenient towards these!
The publishers of the Isis and the Vanity have kindly allowed me to reprint some verses which they chaperoned in the first instance.
C. D. M.
New College, November, 1912.
TO you I sing. To you alone These rhymes in no uncertain tone A message bring. Let others hint They are not worth the ink to print— Of others I am heedless grown.
Chilled by the bookshop's frigid zone These rhymes in haste to you have flown, Fleeing the critic's heart of flint To you they sing.
I have no fear lest you postpone Your gentle judgement. I have known Your gracious favour has no stint, You'll say (your cheek a rosier tint), "I like them, for they are his own"— To you I sing.

# The Eighth Sin/Ars Poetica

"Whenever I find myself growing vaporish I rouse myself, wash and put on a clean shirt, brush my hair and clothes, tie my shoe-strings neatly, and, in fact, adonize, as if I were going out—then all clean and comfortable, I sit down to write." (Keats. Letter to his brother George.)
When the wheel of song are but scantly oiled And the ballad is tinkered beyond repair, When the springs of metre are all uncoiled And your pitiful cupboard of rhymes is bare, When Pegasus, poor old knock-kneed mare, Heeds not the spur in her bleeding hide— What is the remedy? Brush your hair And see that your shoes are neatly tied!
When the bard has vainly scraped and toiled, And gazes at last in black despair On the Muse's fountain muddied and roiled, Finding no dainty image there When verse is a bitterness and a snare, And even your hypocrite friend deride— Put your feet on the nearest chair And see that your shoes are neatly tied!
When the poet's pot has bubbled and boiled And still yields indigestible fare, When the delicate morsel is wholly spoiled And such is your rage that you do not care— Then is the time to be debonair And full of a pumiced and lavendered pride, Get out your finest clothes to wear And see that your shoes are neatly tied!
But his words are balm to the sorely tried: If you want to write verses rich and rare See that your shoes are neatly tied!
# The Eighth Sin/A Song of the Steerage

Sing a song of steerage, for that's the place to be, Seven quid will do it, and seven days at sea, Seven grey December days, keeping near the rail— And all the little candles are waiting on the tree!
Seven days of porridge, and cabbages, and pork, Seven days of steerage-deck, swinging as you walk, And then the dark blue water is turning yellow-brown There's the dear old Statue—and it's Christmas in New York!
You who cross the Channel from Dover to Calais, You who dress for dinner and go first-class all the way, I wonder will you ever know the thrill that I shall feel When the stately old Caronia goes rolling up the Bay!
It's a greasy queasy business, a-travelling in the third Where the meat is mostly horses and the milk is chiefly curd, But it's better to go steerage than not to go at all— You'll be jolly glad you did it, I give my plighted word.
Then sing a song of steerage, for that's the place to be Seven quid will do it, and seven days at sea Seven grey December days, keeping near the rail— And over in America there's Someone waits for me!
# The Eighth Sin/Ad Velocipedem

Shotover and I are a dauntless pair (Sing as we struggle against the slope), For weather be foul or weather be fair The road is ours and we never despair (The next bend is the top, I hope!)
From Thames to Tweed, from Rhine to Scheldt (A rücksack makes a man perspire) Ride with the joy of the roving Celt, A bottle of beer beneath your belt (And plenty of air in your hinder tyre).
And Shotover knows that the rarest time (Sing of our early morning glee) Comes not when we fidget for futile rhyme, Hut after the toiling, dripping climb (And down the grade the wheel runs free).
Trirr, Germany,
August, 1912.
# The Eighth Sin/Ballade of March

When the fitful sun has beckoned the crocus Up from the womb of the chill wet mould, And the sounds and scents of spring provoke us From cloisters grey and damp and old, When the fleeces of heaven are all unrolled And windy March gives promise of June And the world is blue and green and gold— Then hey for a bicycling afternoon!
When the quickening blood brings into focus All in our souls that is gay and bold Away from the dons and their hocus-pocus Ride where the Thames runs clean and cold Under Swinford Bridge or by Cumnor wold— On with the magical seven-league shoon! Colour and fragrance manifold Are ours on a bicycling afternoon.
And, if the rain does fall and soak us (What did Chaucer mean when he told Of the drought of March! Was he trying to joke us?) A wetting can be at an inn consoled.
Before our wheels there lies unrolled A land of meadows and streams—too soon We will lose it: Come, would you live blindfold? Come for a bicycling afternoon!
From our pipes, our papers, our bookish swoon— And, lest our learning should rise and choke us We went for a bicycling afternoon!
# The Eighth Sin/All Lovely Things

All lovely things conspire to greet My lady: daisies at her feet Sprang white and wistfully implored Her plucking; and with one accord The sunsets for her smile compete.
The stars, in many a silver fleet, Set sail each night in hopes to meet Her eyes, that graciously reward All lovely things.
All gay and gentle thoughts entreat Her favour and approval sweet All sorrow, when to her outpoured, Is by her sympathy restored: She finishes and makes complete All lovely things.
