# The Book of Scottish Song/Hamilla

Hamilla.
[There was an old song called "The bonniest lass in a' the warld," which is now lost. The tune and title are all that survive. Robert Crawfurd wrote the following song to the tune. It appears in the Tea-Table Miscellany, inscribed "To Mrs. A. H., on seeing her at a concert." The lady was Miss Anne Hamilton, a relation of the poet's friend, Hamilton of Bangour.]
Look where my dear Hamilla smiles, Hamilla! heavenly charmer; See how wi' a' their arts and wiles The loves and graces arm her. A blush dwells glowing on her cheeks, Fair feats of youthful pleasures, There love in smiling language speaks, There spreads his rosy treasures.
O fairest maid! I own thy power, I gaze, I sigh, and languish, Yet ever, ever will adore, And triumph in my anguish. But ease, O charmer; ease my care, And let my torments move thee; As thou art fairest of the fair, So I the dearest love thee.
# The Book of Scottish Song/Handsome Nell

Handsome Nell.
[Tune, "I am a man unmarried."—"The following composition," says Burns, in his Commonplace Book, "was the first of my performances, and done at an early period of my life, when my heart glowed with honest warm simplicity, unacquainted and uncorrupted with the ways of a wicked world. The performance is, indeed, very puerile and silly, but I am always pleased with it, as it recalls to my mind those happy days when my heart was yet honest, and my tongue was sincere. The subject of it was a young girl, who really deserved all the praises I have bestowed on her. I not only had this opinion of her then—but I actually think so still, now that the spell is long since broken, and the enchantment at an end."—"This ballad," says Lockhart, "though characterised by Burns as a very puerile and silly performance, contains here and there lines of which he need hardly have been ashamed at any period of his life."]
O, once I loved a bonnie lass, Ay, and I love her still; And whilst that vurtue warms my breast I'll love my handsome Nell.
As bonnie lasses I ha'e seen, And mony full as braw, But for a modest gracefu' mien The like I never saw.
A bonnie lass, I will confess, Is pleasant to the e'e, But without some better qualities She's no a lass for me.
But Nelly's looks are blithe and sweet, And what is best of a', Her reputation is complete, And fair without a flaw.
She dresses aye sae clean and neat, Both decent and genteel; And then there's something in her gait Gars ony dress look weel. ​A gaudy dress and gentle air May slightly touch the heart, But it's innocence and modesty That polishes the dart.
'Tis this in Nelly pleases me, 'Tis this enchants my soul; For absolutely in my breast She reigns without control.
# The Book of Scottish Song/Hap me wi' thy petticoat

Hap me wi' thy petticoat.
[There was an old nursery song, the words of which ran somewhat thus:
"I'll hap ye wi' my petticoat, My ain kind dow; I'll hap ye wi' my petticoat, My ain kind dow. The wind blaws cauld, my claithing's thin,— O dearie, on me rue; And hap me wi' thy petticoat, My ain kind dow."
The tune to which this was sung was one of great beauty and simplicity, although its simplicity has been somewhat injured by modern changes. Ramsay wrote the following words to the tune, but mistook himself greatly, we think, when he endeavoured to weave the words of a nurse's lullaby into an impassioned lover's address.]
O Bell, thy looks ha'e kill'd my heart, I pass the day in pain; When night returns, I feel the smart, And wish for thee in vain. I'm starving cold, while thou art warm; Have pity and incline, And grant me for a hap that charm- ing petticoat of thine.
My ravish'd fancy in amaze Still wanders o'er thy charms, Delusive dreams ten thousand ways Present thee to my arms. But waking, think what I endure, While cruel thou decline Those pleasures, which alone can cure This panting breast of mine.
I faint, I fail, and wildly rove, Because you still deny The just reward that's due to love, And let true passion die. Oh! turn, and let compassion seize That lovely breast of thine; Thy petticoat could give me ease, If thou and it were mine. ​Sure heaven has fitted for delight That beauteous form of thine, And thou'rt too good its law to slight, By hind'ring the design. May all the powers of love agree, At length to make thee mine; Or loose my chains and set me free From every charm of thine.
# The Book of Scottish Song/Hame, hame, hame

Hame, hame, hame.
[Contributed by Allan Cunningham to Cromek's Remaius of Nithsdale and Galloway Song, where it is said to be printed from a copy found in Burns's Common Place Book. In the introduction to the Fortunes of Nigel, it will be remembered, Sir Walter Scott speaks of this song in the most laudatory terms.]
Hame! hame! hame! O hame fain wad I be! O, hame, hame, hame, to my ain countrie! When the flower is i' the bud, and the leaf is on the tree, The lark shall sing me hame to my ain countrie. Hame, hame, hame! O hame fain wad I be! O hame, hame, hame, to my ain countrie!
The green leaf o' loyaltie's beginning now to fa'; The bonnie white rose it is withering an' a'; But we'll water't wi' the blude of usurping tyrannie, And fresh it shall blaw in my ain countrie! Hame, hame, hame! O hame fain wad I be O hame, hame, hame, to my ain countrie! ​O there's nocht now frae ruin my countrie can save, But the keys o' kind heaven, to open the grave, That a' the noble martyrs, who died for loyaltie, May rise again and fight for their ain countrie. Hame, hame, hame! O hame fain wad I be! O hame, hame, hame, to my ain countrie!
The great now are gane, wha attempted to save; The green grass is growing abune their graves; Yet the sun through the mirk seems to promise to me I'll shine on ye yet in your ain countrie. Hame, hame, hame! hame fain wad I be! O hame, hame, hame, to my ain countrie!
# The Catholic Prayer Book and Manual of Meditations/Novena for the Feast of the Dolors of the Blessed Virgin

Novena
FOR THE FEAST OF THE DOLORS OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN
(To commence on Thursday, fourth week in Lent.)
O BLESSED Virgin Mary, Mother of our Redeemer! remember we are thy children, given to thee by thy Divine Son, when expiring on the cross. Mother of sorrows! by the tears which flowed from thy eyes when Saint John related how the traitor Judas sold thy Divine Son for the vile price of thirty pieces of silver; how, in the Garden of Olives, he was agonized with fear and sorrow, the blood gushing through every pore; by all the anguish that overwhelmed thy heart when thou didst hear that Jesus, the only object of thy love, was condemned to death; by the sorrow that pierced thy maternal bosom, in meeting thy only beloved Son loaded with a heavy cross, spent through loss of blood, fatigue and pain; by that heroic resignation to the divine will, which,
triumphing over the sentiments of nature, sustained thee at the foot of the cross; by the excess of grief that would have robbed thee of life, had not God preserved thee for the comfort of his disciples and of his infant church; by the dolors that rent thy desolate heart when beholding thy beloved Jesus, most beautiful in his comeliness above the sons of men, become a prey to death, the ignominious death ​of the cross; by all the sufferings of thy most afflicted heart, obtain for us, O Mother of Mercy, true contrition for our sins, persevering fervour in the divine service, and the particular favours we solicit in this Novena.
O thou most tender and afflicted Mother, who didst sacrifice thyself on the same altar with thy beloved Son, and whose heart was penetrated by the nails that fastened him to the cross; as it was our sins inflicted those torments on thy Divine Son, we acknowledge that we justly deserve the wrath of divine justice to fall on our devoted heads. But if those very sufferings have proved our defence and protection heretofore, grant that now at least we may participate profoundly in the sorrow of which we have been the unhappy cause; and obtain, that souls hitherto so insensible to the strongest proofs of love, may, by heartfelt contrition, taste one drop of that bitter chalice of which thou didst drink so deeply. Amen.
# The Catholic Prayer Book and Manual of Meditations/Novena for the Feast of the Purification

Novena
IN PREPARATION FOR THE FEAST OF THE PURIFICATION
(Beginning January 24th).
MOST holy Mary, bright mirror of all virtues, the forty days after thy delivery were no sooner past than thou, though the purest of all virgins, didst will to be presented in the Temple to be purified; Oh, help us, then, by imitating thee, to keep our hearts unstained by sin, that so we too may be made worthy one day to be presented to our God in heaven. Hail Mary.
​2. Virgin most obedient, at thy presentation in the Temple, thou didst willingly offer the accustomed sacrifice of women; enable us so to follow thy example, that we may make ourselves a living sacrifice to God, by practising every virtue. Hail Mary.
3. Virgin most pure, thou didst despise the reproach of men whilst observing the precept of the law; ask for us grace always to keep our hearts pure, whatever the world may think of us. Hail Mary.
4. Virgin most holy, by offering thy Son, the Divine Word, to his eternal Father, thou didst make heaven glad; present our poor hearts to God, that by his grace they may be kept free from mortal sin. Hail Mary.
5. Virgin most humble, in consigning Jesus into the arms of the holy Simeon, thou didst fill his spirit full of heavenly joy; consign our hearts to God, that he may fill them full of his Holy Spirit. Hail Mary.
6. Virgin most diligent, in ransoming thy Son Jesus according to the law, thou didst co-operate in the salvation of the world; ransom our poor hearts from the slavery of sin, that they may be ever pure in the sight of God. Hail Mary.
7. Virgin most meek, on hearing the prophecy of Simeon, foretelling thy sorrows, thou didst humbly resign thyself to the good pleasure of thy God; make us always resigned to the dispositions of his Providence, and enable us to bear all troubles with patience. Hail Mary.
8. Virgin most compassionate, when thou didst fill the soul of Anna the prophetess with light, by means of thy Divine Son, thou didst magnify the mercies of God, in that she recognised Jesus as the Redeemer of the world; enrich our spirit too with heavenly grace, that we may joyfully reap in full ​measure the fruits of our Lord's redemption. Hail Mary.
9. Virgin most resigned, although thou didst feel thine own soul transfixed with sorrow, foreseeing all the bitter Passion of thy Son, yet knowing the grief of Joseph thy spouse for thy sufferings, thou didst console him with holy words; pierce through and through our souls with true sorrow for our sins, that we may one day come to rejoice with thee in everlasting bliss, partakers of thy glory. Hail Mary.
# The Catholic Prayer Book and Manual of Meditations/Novena for the Feast of the Sacred Heart

Novena
FOR THE FEAST OF THE SACRED HEART.
(To begin on Corpus Christi.)
O ADORABLE Jesus! who hast made known to us thy most sacred heart, that we may form some idea of the extent of thy love! send forth thy light and thy grace into our hearts, that we may value as we ought so precious a favour. We adore thee, O infinitely amiable heart! and beseech thee to receive our adorations, in unison with those thou thyself renderest to the Divinity on our altars; in unison with the perfect homage of all thy saints and in particular in unison with the unceasing adorations of the heavenly spirits, who crowd thy sanctuary during this glorious solemnity, and honour the presence of thy amiable heart on our altars. Yet ​it is next for those pure And ardent spirits that thou remainest for love in the holy Eucharist; it is for us, it is for all creatures, even for those who are most unmindful of all thy mercies. But though all the world* should forget thee, G divine victim of charity! surely we at least should return thee love for love, since then hast loved us with an eternal charity, and selected us, long before our existence, as the favourites of thy divine heart, the objects of Its tenderest affection and peculiar favours. Penetrated with the confidence which should arise from the recollection of all thou hast already done for us, and art willing to do for those who trust in thee, we humbly represent our present necessities to thee, O adorable heart! the fountain of all graces! the ocean of mercy, and exhaustless source of consolation and strength! we most fervently entreat of thee to infuse into our hearts the dispositions thou requirest, and then, for thy own sake, to grant the earnest petitions of this Novena.
Thou art, O furnace of love! a public victim: thy mercies and graces are now peculiarly offered to all who will only ask that they may receive; but thy tenderest compassion seems peculiarly directed to all unhappy sinners. For them thou wert overwhelmed with sorrow in the Garden of Olives, and wounded on the cross; for them we most particularly pray, and most earnestly entreat the grace of conversion . For ourselves, whatever particular graces thou knowest to be most necessary for each of us, but particularly that ardent charity and sincere humility which we know to have been the favourite virtues of thy adorable heart.
Animate us with thy zeal for the salvation of those, committed to our care; model their hearts on thine, ​and assist us all to learn of thee, who art meek and humble of heart, that thereby we may find rest to our souls in this life, and everlasting repose in a happy eternity. Amen.

WHO HAVE EXPRESSED THEIR INTENTION
TO ENTER THE LEGAL PROFESSION
THIS BOOK
IS AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED
"Cross-examination,—the rarest, the most useful, and the most difficult to be acquired of all the accomplishments of the advocate. . . . It has always been deemed the surest test of truth and a better security than the oath."—Cox.
PREFACE
In offering this book to the legal profession I do not intend to arrogate to myself any superior knowledge upon the subject, excepting in so far as it may have been gleaned from actual experience. Nor have I attempted to treat the subject in any scientific, elaborate, or exhaustive way; but merely to make some suggestions upon the art of cross-examination, which have been gathered as a result of twenty-five years' court practice, during which time I have examined and cross-examined about fifteen thousand witnesses, drawn from all classes of the community.
If what is here written affords anything of instruction to the younger members of my profession, or of interest or entertainment to the public, it will amply justify the time taken from my summer vacation to put in readable form some points from my experience upon this most difficult subject.

# The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy

First written in 1747, The Art of Cookery made Plain and Easy represents one of the most important references for culinary practice in England and the American colonies during the latter half of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th. It was the dominant reference for home cooks in much of the English-speaking world during its original publication run of over 90 years and 20 editions.

ADVERTISEMENT.
The writer desires to express his obligations to Dean Merivale for the permission granted by him to employ the 'History of the Romans under the Empire' as a guide in many portions of this book. Also, he acknowledges his debt to Messrs Church & Brodribb for their kind consent—conveyed by their publishers, Messrs Macmillan & Co.—to his availing himself of their admirable translations of the 'Agricola,' 'Germany,' and 'History' of Tacitus. For the 'Annals,' the Oxford translation, and, on one or two occasions, Mr Murphy's, have been used. In the chapter entitled "The Orators," the citations are a paraphrase, not a translation.
That a far larger space is assigned to the 'History' than to the 'Annals' may require some explanation. ​The earlier written of these works is generally the far less commonly known of the two. The later, besides its length, demands far more scrutiny and sifting than the ‘History,' and to be fairly represented, would have required more space than could be afforded—perhaps even a volume of the series for itself alone.

# Tacey v. Irwin

* related portals: Supreme Court of the United States.
* sister projects: Wikidata item.
United States Supreme Court
85 U.S. 549
Tacey v. Irwin
ERROR to the Circuit Court for the Eastern District of Virginia; the case as found by that court being thus:
Under an act of Congress approved June 7th, 1862, and entitled 'An act for the collection of the direct tax in insurrectionary districts,' &c., certain direct taxes which had been laid by former law, were specifically charged on every parcel of land in the rebellious States, according to divisions and valuations in the act prescribed. And in default of payment of the tax the statute ordered the land to be advertised for sale and sold. The act, however, allowed the owner or owners of the land to pay the tax to certain tax commissioners mentioned, and to take a certificate therefor, by virtue of which the lands should be discharged of the tax.
In 1864, one Irwin owned a piece of land, subject to this statute, in Alexandria, Virginia, he himself being away. The taxes on it being unpaid, the commissioners gave notice that they would be at then office in Alexandria at certain times named, to receive the direct tax assessed and fixed by law on the lots and tracts of land in Alexandria, under and by virtue of the act of Congress abovementioned. But the commissioners adopted a rule not to receive the taxes due on property advertised for sale, unless tendered by the owner in person. This rule was adopted in pursuance of instructions from some officer of the Treasury Department, and was so rigidly enforced that neither friend, relative, nor agent was allowed to pay for the absent owner; their applications to pay and save the property from sale being uniformly refused by the commissioners, under the operations of the rule in question. After the premises belonging to Irwin were advertised for sale, one of his relatives went to the office of the commissioners to see after the payment of the tax on the property, but made no formal offer to pay because it was in effect waived by the commissioners; they declining to recognize any tender, unless made by the owner in person. The land was accordingly sold by the commissioners as land on which the taxes had not been paid, and was bought by one Tacey. Hereupon Irwin brought suit against him to recover it, and by judgment of the court upon the preceding case, did recover it. To reverse that judgment this writ of erorr was taken.
Mr. Willoughby, in support of the ruling below, relied on Bennett v. Hunter, where a tenant of the owner went and tendered payment of the tax on certain lands sold, the owner being away, which tender was held by this court in the case cited to be sufficient.
Mr. S. F. Beach, contra, sought to distinguish this case from that, since here there had been no tender at all; and no specific refusal.
Mr. Justice DAVIS delivered the opinion of the court.
