# The Jolly Pinder of Wakefield (1689)/The Jolly Pinder of Wakefield

THE
Jolly Pinder of Wakefield,
WITH
Robin Hood, Scarlet and John.
IN Wakefield there lives a jolly Pinder, in Wakefield all on a Green, in Wakefield all on a Green; There is neither Knight, nor Squire, said the Pinder nor Baron that is so bold, nor Baron that is so bold; Dare make a trespass to the town of Wakefield but his Pledge goes to the Pinfold, &c. All this beheard three witty young men, 'twas Robin Hood, Scarlet, and John, &c. With that they espy'd the jolly Pinder, as he sat under a thorn, &c. Now turn again, turn again, said the Pinder, for a wrong way have you gone, &c. For you have forsaken the King's High way and made a path over the Corn, &c. O that were great shame, said jolly Robin, we being three, and thou but one, &c. The Pinder leapt back then thirty good foot, 'twas thirty good foot and one, &c. He leaned his back fast unto a thorn, and his foot against a stone, &c. And there they fought a long Summers day a Summers day so long, &c. Till that their swords on their broad bucklers were broke fast unto their hands, &c. Hold thy hand, hold thy hand, said Robin Hood, and my merry men every one, &c. For this is one of the best Pinders that ever I try'd with Sword, &c. And wilt thou forsake thy Pinders Craft, and live in Green-wood with me, &c. At Michaelmas next my Cov'nant comes out, when every man gathers his fee, &c. I'le take my blew blade all in my hand, and plod to the green-wood with thee, &c. Hast thou either meat or drink? said Robin Hood for my merry men and me, &c. I have both bread and beef, said the Pinder, and good Ale of the best, &c. And that is Meat good enough, said Robin Hood for such unbidden Guest, &c. O wilt thou forsake the Pinder his Craft, and go to the Green-wood with me? &c. Thou shalt have a Livery twice in the year, the one green, the other brown, &c. If Michaelmas day was come and gone, and my Master had paid me my fee, and my Master had paid me my fee; Then would I set as little by him, as my Master doth by me, as my Master doth by me.

# The New International Encyclopædia/Pennsylvania State College

Edition of 1905. See also Pennsylvania State University on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
​ PENNSYLVANIA STATE COLLEGE. A coeducational institution of higher learning at State College, Pa., organized on a collegiate basis as the Farmers' High School in 1859. In 1862 the name was changed to The Agricultural College of Pennsylvania, and in 1874 to its present title. The principal income of the college is derived from the sale of public lands held in trust by the State. The grounds contain 400 acres, of which the campus covers 60 acres, the remainder being devoted to a model farm. The courses of instruction occupy four years. The general courses offered are a classical general science, a Latin scientific, and a philosophical course. The technical courses include agriculture, biology, chemistry, civil, electrical, mechanical, and mining engineering, mathematics, and physics. All courses, except the classical, lead to the B.S. degrees. In the graduate courses the degrees of C.E., M.E., E.M., E.E., and M.S. are conferred. In 1902 the faculty numbered 48; the college was attended by 602 students, of whom 420 were in the School of Engineering; 1800 persons took correspondence courses in agriculture. The endowment was $517,000, the income was $137,992, and the value of the college grounds, buildings, and equipment was $850,000. The library contained 19,181 volumes.
# The New International Encyclopædia/Penny

Edition of 1905. See also Penny on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
​ PENNY (AS. penig, pennig, peneg, pening, pœning, pending, OHG. phantinc, pfentinc, pfending, phenning, Ger. Pfenning, Pfennig, penny; perhaps connected with OHG. phant, pfant, Ger. Pfand, pawn, pledge, or less plausibly with OHG. pfanna, phanna, panna, Ger. Pfanne, AS. panne, Eng. pan, from ML. panna, from Lat. patina, shallow bowl). A British coin and money of account. After the sceattæ (q.v.) it is the most ancient of the English coins, and was the only one generally current among the Anglo-Saxons. The penny is first mentioned in the laws of Ina, King of the West Saxons, about the close of the seventh century. It was at that time a silver coin, and weighed about 22½ troy grains, being thus about 1/240 of the Saxon pound weight. This relation to the pound weight is evidently derived from the usage of the early Franks, who retained the Roman division of the libra into 20 solidi, and the solidus into 12 denarii (the denarius being thus the 240th part of the libra or pound). (See Mark.) Half-pence and farthings were not coined in England till the time of Edward I., but the practice previously prevailed of so deeply indenting the penny with a cross mark that the coin could be easily broken into two or four parts as required. Silver farthings ceased to be coined under Edward VI., and silver half-pennies under the Commonwealth. By this time the penny had steadily decreased in weight; it was 18 grains under Edward III., 15 and 12 under Edward IV., 8 under Edward VI., and under Elizabeth it was finally fixed at 723/31 grains, or 1/62 of an ounce of silver, a value to which the subsequent copper pennies, which till 1860 were the circulating medium, closely approximated. In 1672 an authorized copper coinage was established, and half-pence and farthings were struck in copper. The penny was not introduced till 1797, and at the same period the coinage of twopenny pieces was begun; but these latter, being found unsuitable, were withdrawn. The penny of the present bronze coinage is of only about half the value of the old copper penny. The German pfennig was also originally a silver coin bearing the same relation to the German pound of silver as the English penny to its pound. And in the twelfth century it was made so broad, in imitation of the Byzantine coins, that it would no longer bear to be struck with a die on each side as before, but was struck on one side only. In the beginning of the fourteenth century the mark of silver was anew divided into 60 parts or coins, which, to distinguish them from the old coins, were called grossi denarii, whence the term groschen. In the modern monetary system of Germany, the pfennig is a nickel coin, the hundredth of the mark, the latter being equal to a shilling or about $0.25.
# The New International Encyclopædia/Pennsylvania Dutch

Edition of 1905. See also Pennsylvania Dutch on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
​PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH, or Pennsylvania German. The language of the Germans who emigrated to Pennsylvania between 1683 (when Pastorius settled in Germantown) and the middle of the eighteenth century. During this time some 100,000 settled principally in the southeastern counties of the State, such as Lancaster, York, Franklin, Cumberland, Berks, Schuylkill, and Lehigh. The emigration was due partly to the ravages of the armies of Louis XIV., and partly to religious persecution. The settlers came principally from the Rhenish Palatinate, Württemberg, and Switzerland, with a sprinkling from the Lower Rhine, Bavaria, Alsace, and Saxony. As most of the dialects spoken by these people belonged to the Alemannic and Franconian groups (see German Language), the idiom of the Pennsylvania Dutch is really High German, and the confusion with Dutch is due to the fact that the settlers called their language ‘Deitsch’ (German). Although a variety of dialects were originally represented, that of the Rhenish Palatinate (Rheno-Franconian) so predominated and influenced the others that the language may be regarded as fairly homogeneous. Owing to their segregation in religious communities, the emigrants clung tenaciously to their mother tongue, but were gradually compelled by force of circumstances to accept many English words, especially ​the names of objects in daily use, until the dialect can best be described as a fusion of Franconian and Alemannic with an admixture of English varying from one per cent. in the rural districts to a large percentage in the towns.
The language exhibits the characteristic dialectic darkening of a to o (schlof for Schlaf; jor for Jahr), further the fronting of ö to e (here for hören; bes for böse) and of ü to i (bicher for Bücher). German ei and äu generally appear as ē (del for Teil; bem for Bäume). The consonants p, pp, and d are not shifted (pund for Pfund; kloppe for klopfen; kopp for Kopf; dag for Tag; mudder for Mutter). Final vowels and inflectional n are dropped (mid for müde; bem for Bäume; finne for finden; gfunne for gefunden).
The writings of the Pennsylvania Germans have been mainly of a religious character, such as hymns and polemical pamphlets. They were written as a rule in the High-German literary dialect, with, however, a number of exceptions. Within the last forty years, however, a number of poems in the dialect have been written.

​PENNSYLVANIA, Western University of. An institution at Allegheny, Pa.; the second oldest institution of learning west of the Appalachian Mountains, founded as the Pittsburg Academy in 1786, incorporated in 1787, and reincorporated under its present name in 1819. Since 1895 women have been admitted on the same terms as men. The university comprises collegiate, engineering, medical, and law departments, and colleges of pharmacy and dentistry. Several of the schools are institutions formerly independent. The Medical School became a part of the university in 1892, and the Law School in 1895. The Allegheny observatory was founded in 1859 by the Allegheny Astronomical Society, and in 1867 was transferred to the university. It has achieved an international reputation through the work of its successive directors, Professors Langley and Keeler, in the fields of solar physics and astronomical spectroscopy. New buildings for this department were erected in 1901. In 1902 the university had 892 students, 116 instructors, and a library of 20,000 volumes.

# The New Penelope/Hymn

HYMN.
Down through the dark, my God, Reach me Thy hand; Guide me along the road I fail to understand. Blindly I grope my way, In doubt and fear, Uncertain when I pray If Thou art near.
O, God, renew my trust, Hear when I cry; ​Out of the cloud and dust Lift me to thee on high. The crooked paths make plain, The burden light; Touch me and heal my pain, And clear my sight.
O, take my hand in Thine, And lead me so That all my steps incline In Thy right way to go. Out of this awful night Some whisper send, That I may feel my God, My loving friend.
O, let me feel and see Thy hand and face; And let me learn of Thee My true right place. For I am Thine, and Thou Art also mine. Unto Thy will I bow, Helper divine!
# The New Penelope/He and She

HE AND SHE.
Under the pines sat a young man and maiden, "Love," said he; "life is sweet, think'st thou not so?" Sweet were her eyes, full of pictures of Aidenn,— "Life?" said she; "love is sweet; no more I know."
Into the wide world the maid and her lover Wandered by pathways that sundered them far; From pine-groves to palm-groves, he flitted a rover, She tended his roses, and watched for his star.
Oft he said softly, while melting eyes glistened, "Sweet is my life, love, with you ever near:" Morning and evening she waited and listened For a voice and a foot-step that never came near.
Fainting at last, on her threshold she found him: "Life is but ashes, and bitter," he sighed. She, with her tender arms folded around him, Whispered—"But love is still sweet;" and so died.
# The New Penelope/Lines Written in an Album

LINES WRITTEN IN AN ALBUM.
The highest use of happy love is this; To make us loving to the loveless ones; Willing indeed to halve our meed of bliss, If our sweet plenty others' want atones: Of love's abundance may God give thee store, To spend in love's sweet charities, Lenore.
# The New Penelope/I Only Wished to Know

I ONLY WISH TO KNOW.
Pray do not take the kiss again I risked so much in getting, Nor let my blushes make you vain To your and my regretting. I'm sure I've heard your sex repeat A thousand times or so, That stolen kisses are most sweet— I only wished to know!
I own 'twas not so neatly done As you know how to do it, And that the fright out-did the fun, But still I do not rue it. I can afford the extra beat My heart took at your "Oh!" Which plainly said that kiss was sweet— When I so wished to know!
Nay, I will not give back the kiss, Nor will I take a second; Creme de la creme of pain and bliss This one shall e'er be reckoned. The pain was mine, the bliss was—ours, You smile to hear it so; But the same thought was surely yours, As I have cause to know.
# The New Penelope/Childhood

CHILDHOOD.
A child of scarcely seven years, Light haired, and fair as any lily; With pure eyes ready in their tears At chiding words, or glances chilly; And sudden smiles, as inly bright As lamps through alabaster shining, With ready mirth, and fancies light, Dashed with strange dreams of child-divining: A child in all infantile grace, Yet with the angel lingering in her face.
A curious, eager, questioning child, Whose logic leads to naive conclusions; Her little knowledge reconciled To truth amid some odd confusions; Yet credulous, and loving much The problems hardest for her reason, Placing her lovely faith on such, And deeming disbelief a treason; Doubting that which she can disprove, And wisely trusting all the rest to love.
Such graces dwell beside your hearth, And bless you in a priceless pleasure, Leaving no sweeter spot on earth Than that which holds your household treasure. No entertainment ever yet Had half the exquisite completeness— The gladness without one regret, You gather from your darling's sweetness: An angel sits beside the hearth Where e're an innocent child is found on earth.
# The New Penelope/Do You Hear the Women Praying?

DO YOU HEAR THE WOMEN PRAYING?
[Read before the Women's Prayer League of Portland, Oregon, May 27, 1874.]
Do you hear the women praying, oh my brothers? Do you hear what words they say? These, this free-born nation's wives and mothers, Bowing, where you proudly stand, to pray! Can you coldly look upon their faces, Pale, sad faces, seamed with frequent tears; ​See their hands uplifted in their places— Hands that toiled for all your boyhood's years?
Can you see your wives and daughters pleading In the dust you spurn beneath your feet, Baring hearts for years in secret bleeding, To the scoffs and jestings of the street? Can you hear, and yet not heed the crying Of the children perishing for bread? Born in fear, not love, and daily dying, Cursed of God, they think, but cursed of you instead?
Do you hear the women praying, oh my brothers? Hear the oft-repeated burden of their prayer— Hear them asking for one boon above all others— Not for vengeance on the wrongs they have to bear; But imploring, as their Lord did, "God forgive them, For they know not what they do; Strike the sin, but spare the sinners—save them"— Meaning, oh ye men and brothers, you!
For your heels have ground the women's faces; You have coined their blood and tears for gold; Have betrayed their kisses and embraces— Returned their love with curses twentyfold; Made the wife's crown one of thorns and not of honor, Made her motherhood a pain and dread; Heaped life's toil unrecompensed upon her; Laid her sons upon her bosom, dead!
Do you hear the women praying, oh my brothers? Have you not one word to say? Will a just God be as gentle as these mothers, If you dare to say them nay? Oh, ye men, God waits for you to answer The prayers that to him rise, He waits to know if you are just ere He is— There your deliverance lies!
​Rise and assert the manhood of this nation, Its courage, honor, might— Wipe off the dust of our humiliation— Dare nobly to do right! Shall women plead from out the dust forever? Will you not work, men, if you cannot pray? Hold up the suppliant hands with your endeavor, And seize the world's salvation while you may.
Yes, from the eastern to the western ocean, The sound of prayer is heard; And in our hearts great billows of emotion At every breath are stirred. From mountain tops of prayer down to sin's valley The voice of women sounds the cry, "Come up!" O, men and brothers, heed that cry, and rally— Help us to dash to earth the deadly cup!

# The New Student's Reference Work/Alkali

See also Alkali on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Al′kali, an old chemical term used to denote soluble caustic hydroxides. The alkalies proper are potash, soda, lithia, rubidium and cæsium hydroxides and ammonia. Potash is called the vegetable alkali, soda the mineral alkali and ammonia the volatile alkali. Lime, magnesia, baryta and strontia are called alkaline earths, because they have some of the properties of alkalies. That which especially distinguishes an alkaline substance is the power it has of turning a vegetable blue, green; or a vegetable yellow, reddish brown. Alkalies belong to a general class of substances called bases, which are oxides of metals (usually combined with water), or compounds containing carbon and nitrogen called organic bases, all of which unite with acids to form salts. Alkalies and acids neutralize each other, and the usual caustic or bitter taste of the alkali and the sour taste of the acid usually disappear when a salt is formed. A familiar example is the addition of soda (alkali) to sour milk (acid), which neutralizes the acid, or destroys the sour taste. An alkali also unites with oil or fat to make soap.
