# The Parting (Brontë)

The chestnut steed stood by the gate His noble master's will to wait, The woody park so green and bright Was glowing in the morning light, The young leaves of the aspen trees Were dancing in the morning breeze. The palace door was open wide, Its lord was standing there, And his sweet lady by his side With soft dark eyes and raven hair. He smiling took her wary hand And said, 'No longer here I stand; My charger shakes his flowing mane And calls me with impatient neigh. Adieu then till we meet again, Sweet love, I must no longer stay.'
'You must not go so soon,' she said, 'I will not say farewell. The sun has not dispelled the shade In yonder dewy dell; Dark shadows of gigantic length Are sleeping on the lawn; And scarcely have the birds begun To hail the summer morn; Then stay with me a little while,' She said with soft and sunny smile.
He smiled again and did not speak, But lightly kissed her rosy cheek, And fondly clasped her in his arms, Then vaulted on his steed. And down the park's smooth winding road He urged its flying speed. Still by the door his lady stood And watched his rapid flight, Until he came to a distant wood That hid him from her sight. But ere he vanished from her view He waved to her a last adieu, Then onward hastily he steered And in the forest disappeared.
The lady smiled a pensive smile And heaved a gently sigh, But her cheek was all unblanched the while And tearless was her eye. 'A thousand lovely flowers,' she said, 'Are smiling on the plain. And ere one half of them are dead, My lord will come again. The leaves are waving fresh and green On every stately tree, And long before they die away He will return to me!' -- Alas! Fair lady, say not so; Thou canst not tell the weight of woe That lies in store for thee.
Those flowers will fade, those leaves will fall, Winter will darken yonder hall; Sweet spring will smile o'er hill and plain And trees and flowers will bloom again, And years will still keep rolling on, But thy beloved lord is gone. His absence thou shalt deeply mourn, And never smile on his return.

# The Paquete Habana

Paquete Habana.; The Lola, 175 U.S. 677 (1900), was a landmark United States Supreme Court case that reversed an earlier court decision allowing the capture of fishing vessels under prize law. Its importance rests on the fact that it integrated customary international law with American law, perhaps the quintessential position of those who hold a monist perspective of international law.

# The New Student's Reference Work/Alfieri

See also the disclaimer.
Alfieri (äl-fē-ā' rē), the founder of Italian tragedy. He was born in Piedmont in 1749, and after a brief period of study at Turin traveled several years on the continent, spending his time, however, in dissipation. A few chance verses, written at the bedside of a friend, stirred in him a passion for tragedy, and he turned his energies to the study of literature. He wrote twenty-one tragedies, besides other poetry, including five odes on the American Revolution. His dramas, though simple in style, held an Italian audience spellbound. Saul is his most successful tragedy. Count Vittorio Alfieri died at Florence in 1803. His tomb is in the church of Santa Croce, in Florence, next to the tomb of Michael Angelo, and over it stands a monument by the sculptor Canova.

# The New Student's Reference Work/Alexandria

See also Alexandria on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Alexan'dria, a city of Egypt, founded by Alexander the Great, 332 B. C. Its site is near one of the mouths of the Nile, between the Mediterranean and Lake Mareotis. About a mile out in the sea is the island of Pharos, connected with the land by an enormous mole, on which Ptolemy built the famous lighthouse, 400 feet high, which was called one of the wonders of the world. He ordered as inscription on the lighthouse, the words: "King Ptolemy to the Gods, the Saviours, for the Benefit of Sailors." But the architect, Sostrates, put another inscription on the wall, covering it with mortar on which he wrote the words of the king. In later years the mortar fell off, and the hidden inscription appeared: "Sostrates, the Cnidian, son of Dexiphanes, to the Gods, the Saviours, for the Benefit of Sailors." The city was laid out in squares, with the tomb of Alexander the Great in the center. It was divided into the quarters of the Jews, of the Egyptians and of the Greeks. In the latter were most of the beautiful buildings for which the city was famous, the palace of the Ptolemies, Alexandrian Library of ancient times, the museum, the court of justice and the temple of the Cæsars. This temple Julius Cæsar adorned with the two "Cleopatra's needles," which he brought from Heliopolis, and which have been given to England (1877) and to America (1880). Alexandria has been a great center of trade at different times in its history. The rise of Constantinople and the discovery of the passage to India by the Cape of Good Hope took away its importance; but the opening of the Suez canal has renewed its prosperity, and it is now growing rapidly. The city fell at various times under the power of the Romans, the Persians, the Arabs and the Turks. It was largely rebuilt under Mehemet Ali (who reigned from 1811 to 1848). In 1882 it was bombarded and held for a time by the English. It is now under English government. The modern city is built on the ancient mole. The population is 332,246, made up of a large number of nationalities.

See also Alexandria, Indiana on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Alexandria, Ind., a growing city in Madison County, situated about 50 miles northeast of Indianapolis on two lines of railway and having trolley connection with all principal towns and cities in Indiana and Ohio. With the discovery of natural gas in 1889 its growth for a few years was remarkable. On the failure of gas it lost many industries but since 1908 has enjoyed a healthy growth. Its manufactures include glass, mineral wool, wire and paper mill products. The city owns and operates its own waterworks. Population (1910), 5,200.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Alexandrian Library

See also Library of Alexandria on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Alexandrian Library, probably the largest collection of books ever gathered before the invention of printing. It was founded by Ptolemy I and Ptolemy II, of Egypt, and contained books in all languages. It was housed in two buildings, the Museum and the Serapeum. The number of volumes was said to be seven hundred thousand, but this would not amount to as much as a modern library of printed books of the same number, because at that time all books were written, and each part of a book was called a volume. Thus the Iliad, which now makes one volume, was then twenty-four volumes. Students came to this library from all parts of the world to study. When Julius Cæsar besieged Alexandria, a large part of the library was burned. Mark Antony, however, presented a new collection to Cleopatra from Pergamus, and the library went on increasing for four centuries, till the Serapeum was destroyed by command of the Emperor Theodosius. The library was again re-established, but was burned a second time, about 640 A. D., when the Arabs conquered the city. The story is told that the Arab caliph, Omar, when asked to preserve the library, said: "If these writings of the Greeks agree with the Koran, they are useless and need not be preserved; if they disagree, they are pernicious and ought to be destroyed." So they were used to heat the four thousand baths of the city, and such was their number that six month were barely sufficient to use up the precious fuel.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Alexiev, Admiral E. S.

See also Yevgeny Alexeyev on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Alexiev, Admiral E. S. Born in Russia in 1844, and educated for the navy. During the Chino-Japanese War in 1897, he was the chief of the eastern fleet; later he was the chief of the Black Sea fleet. In August, 1903, he was appointed viceroy of the Far East with supreme command of the land and naval forces. When the Russo-Japanese War broke out and the Russians met reverses, Alexiev was superseded in command both of the army and navy, and left in charge of the civil administration only. He has been severely censured for either being ignorant of the state of affairs in Japan prior to the war or for concealing his knowledge of the situation from the czar, Nicholas II. Alexiev belongs to the reactionary faction in the Russian government.

PREFATORY NOTE
This edition has been carefully edited and abridged for the use of schools. It includes a sketch of Bunyan’s life and such brief footnotes as the text requires. The second part of the Pilgrim’s Progress has been omitted, since, to quote the words of Froude, it is but “a feeble reverberation of the first.”

MR. WALLER TO THE AUTHOR, ON HIS VERSES TO THE KING.

LADY HYDE SITTING AT SIR GODFREY KNELLER’S FOR HER PICTURE.
While Kneller, with inimitable art, Attempts that face whoſe print ’s on ev’ry heart, The poet, with a pencil leſs confin’d, Shall paint her virtues, and deſcribe her mind,
Unlock the ſhrine, and to the ſight unfold5 The ſecret gems and all the inward gold. Two only patterns do the Muſes name Of perfect beauty, but of guilty fame: A Venus and a Helen have been ſeen Both perjur’d wives, the goddeſs and the queen;10 In this, the third, are reconcil’d at laſt Thoſe jarring attributes of fair and chaſte; With graces that attract, but not enſnare; Divinely good, as ſhe ’s divinely fair; With beauty not affected, vain, nor proud;15 With greatneſs eaſy, affable, and good. Others, by guilty artifice, and arts Of promis’d kindneſs, practiſe on our hearts, With expectation blow the paſſion up; She fans the fire without one gale of hope:20 Like the chaſte moon ſhe ſhines to all mankind, But to Endymion is her love confin’d. What cruel deſtiny on beauty waits, When on one face depend ſo many fates! Oblig’d by honour to relieve but one, Unhappy men by thouſands are undone.26

EPILOGUE TO THE JEW OF VENICE.
Each in his turn, the poet and the prieſt, Have view’d the ſtage, but like falſe prophets gueſt. The man of zeal, in his religious rage, Would ſilence poets, and reduce the ſtage. The poet, raſhly to get clear, retorts5 On kings the ſcandal, and beſpatters courts. Both err; for, without mincing, to be plain, The guilt ’s your own of ev’ry odious ſcene. The preſent time ſtill gives the ſtage its mode; The vices that you practiſe we explode:10 We hold the glaſs, and but reflect your ſhame, Like Spartans, by expoſing to reclaim. The ſcribbler, pinch’d with hunger, writes to dine, And to your genius muſt conform his line; Not lewd by choice, but merely to ſubmit.15 Would you encourage ſenſe, ſenſe would be writ. Good plays we try, which, aster the firſt day, Unſeen we act, and to bare benches play. Plain ſenſe, which pleas’d your ſires an age ago, Is loſt without the garniture of ſhow.20 At vaſt expenſe we labour to our ruin, And court your favour with our own undoing.
A war of profit mitigates the evil, But to be tax’d—and beaten—is the devil. How was the ſcene forlorn, and how deſpis’d,25 When Timon without muſic moraliz’d! Shakeſpeare’s ſublime in vain entie’d the throng Without the aid of Purcell’s Syren ſong. In the ſame antique loom theſe ſcenes were wrought, Embelliſh’d with good morals and juſt thought;30 True Nature in her nobleſt light you ſee, Ere yet debauch’d by modern gallantry To trifling jeſts and fulſome ribaldry: What ruſt remains upon the ſhining maſs, Antiquity muſt privilege to paſs.35 ’T is Shakeſpeare’s play, and is theſe ſcenes miſcarry, Let Gormon take the ſtage—or Lady Mary.37

EPILOGUE DESIGNED FOR THE BRITISH ENCHANTERS.
Wit once, like Beauty, without art or dreſs, Naked, and unadorn’d, could find ſucceſs, Till by fruition novelty deſtroy’d, The nymph muſt find new charms to be enjoy’d. As by his equipage the man you prize,5 And ladies muſt have gems beſide their eyes;
So fares it too with plays: in vain we write, Unleſs the muſic and the dance invite; Scarce Hamlet clears the charges of the night. Would you but fix ſome ſtandard how to move,10 We would transform to any thing you love: Judge our deſire by our coſt and pains; Sure the expenſe, uncertain are the gains. But tho’ we fetch from Italy and France Our fopperies of tune, and mode of dance,15 Our ſturdy Britons ſcorn to borrow ſenſe. Howe’er to foreign faſhions we ſubmit, Still ev’ry fop prefers his mother-wit. In only wit this conſtancy is ſhown, For never was that errant changeling known20 Who for another’s ſenſe would quit his own. Our author would excuſe these youthful ſcenes, Begotten at his entrance in his teens: Some childiſh fancies may approve the toy, Some like the Muſe the more for being a boy;25 And ladies ſhould be pleas’d, is not content, To find so young a thing not wholly impotent. Our ſtage-reformers, too, he would diſarm, In charity ſo cold, in zeal ſo warm! And therefore, to atone for ſtage-abuſes,30 And gain the church-indulgence for the Muſes, He gives his thirds—to charitable uſes.32

AN IMITATION Of the ſecond Chorus IN THE SECOND ACT OF SENECA’S THYESTES.
When will the gods, propitious to our prayers, Compoſe our factions and conclude our wars? Ye ſons of Inachus! repent the guilt Of crowns uſurp’d, and blood of parents ſpilt: For impious greatneſs vengeance is in ſtore;5 Short is the date of all ill-gotten pow’r. Give ear, ambitious Princes! and be wiſe; Liſten, and learn wherein true greatneſs lies: Place not your pride in roofs that ſhine with gems, In purple robes, nor ſparkling diadems,10
Nor in dominion nor extent of land; He ’s only great who can himſelf command; Whoſe guard is peaceful Innocence, whoſe guide Is faithful Reaſon; who is void of pride, Checking ambition, nor is idly vain15 Of the falſe incenſe of a popular train; Who without ſtrife or envy can behold His neighbour’s plenty and his heaps of gold, Nor covets other wealth but what we find In the poſſeſſions of a virtuous mind.20 Fearleſs he ſees, who is with virtue crown’d, The tempeſt rage, and hears the thunder ſound; Ever the ſame, let Fortune ſmile or frown, On the red ſcaffold or the blazing throne; Serenely as he liv’d reſigns his breath,25 Meets Deſtiny halfway, nor ſhrinks at death. Ye ſov’reign Lords! who ſit like gods in ſtate, Awing the world, and buſtling to be great; Lords but in title, vaſſals in effect, Whom luſt controls, and wild deſires direct,30 The reins of empire but ſuch hands diſgrace, Where Paſſion, a blind driver, guides the race. What is this fame, thus crowded round with ſlaves? The breath of fools, the bait of flatt’ring knaves. An honeſt heart, a conſcience free from blame,35 Not of great acts, but good, give me the name. In vain we plant, we build, our ſtores increaſe, Is conſcience roots up all our inward peace.
What need of arms, or inſtruments of war, Or batt’ring engines that deſtroy from far?40 The greateſt king and conqueror is he Who lord of his own appetites can be; Bleſs’d with a pow’r that nothing can deſtroy, And all have equal freedom to enjoy. Whom worldly luxury and pomps allure,45 They tread on ice, and find no footing ſure. Place me, ye Pow’rs! in ſome obſcure retreat; O keep me innocent, make others great! In quiet ſhades, content with rural ſports, Give me a life remote from guilty courts,50 Where, free from hopes or fears, in humble eaſe, Unheard of, I may live and die in peace. Happy the man who thus, retir’d from ſight, Studies himſelf, and ſeeks no other light; But moſt unhappy he who ſits on high,55 Expos’d to ev’ry tongue and ev’ry eye, Whose follies, blaz’d about, to all are known, But are a ſecret to himſelf alone: Worſe is an evil fame, much worſe, than none.59

LADY HYDE.
When fam’d Apelles ſought to frame Some image of th’ Idalian dame,
To furniſh graces for the piece He ſummon’d all the nymphs of Greece; So many mortals were combin’d,5 To ſhew how one immortal ſhin’d. Had Hyde thus ſat by proxy too, As Venus then was ſaid to do, Venus herſelf, and all the train Os goddeſſes, had ſummon’d been;10 The painter muſt have ſearch’d the ſkies To match the luſtre of her eyes.
