THE HOROLOGE OF THE FIELDS.
Addressed to a Young Lady, on seeing at the House of an Acquaintance a magnificent French Timepiece.
For her who owns this splendid toy,  Where use with elegance unites, Still may its index point to joy,  And moments wing'd with new delights.
Sweet may resound each silver bell,—  And never quick returning chime, Seem in reproving notes to tell,  Of hours mispent, and murder'd time.
Tho' Fortune, Emily, deny  To us these splendid works of art, The woods, the lawns, the heaths supply  Lessons from Nature to the heart.
In every copse, and shelter'd dell,  Unveil'd to the observant eye, Are faithful monitors, who tell  How pass the hours and seasons by.
The green robed children of the Spring  Will mark the periods as they pass, Mingle with leaves Time's feather'd wing,  And bind with flowers his silent glass.
Mark where transparent waters glide,  Soft flowing o'er their tranquil bed; There, cradled on the dimpling tide,  Nymphæa rests her lovely head.
But conscious of the earliest beam,  She rises from her humid rest, And sees reflected in the stream  The virgin whiteness of her breast.
Till the bright daystar to the west  Declines, in Ocean's surge to lave, Then folded in her modest vest,  She slumbers on the rocking wave.
See Hieracium's various tribe,  Of plumy seed and radiate flowers, The course of Time their blooms describe  And wake or sleep appointed hours.
Broad o'er its imbricated cup  The Goatsbeard spreads its golden rays, But shuts its cautious petals up,  Retreating from the noon-tide blaze:
Pale as a pensive cloister'd nun  The Bethlem-star, her face unveils, When o'er the mountain peers the Sun,  But shades it from the vesper gales.
Among the loose and arid sands  The humble Arenaria creeps; Slowly the purple star expands,  But soon within its calyx sleeps.
And those small bells so lightly ray'd  With young Aurora's rosy hue, Are to the noon-tide Sun display'd,  But shut their plaits against the dew.
On upland slopes the shepherds mark  The hour, when as the dial true, Cichorium to the towering Lark,  Lifts her soft eyes, serenely blue.
And thou "Wee crimson tipped flower,"  Gatherest thy fringed mantle round Thy bosom, at the closing hour,  When night drops bathe the turfy ground.
Unlike Silene, who declines  The garish noontide's blazing light; But when the evening crescent shines  Gives all her sweetness to the night.
Thus in each flower and simple bell,  That in our path untrodden lie, Are sweet remembrancers who tell  How fast the winged moments fly.
Time will steal on with ceaseless pace,  Yet lose we not the fleeting hours, Who still their fairy footsteps trace,  As light they dance among the flowers.
# Beachy Head: with Other Poems/The Swallow

See Notes
THE SWALLOW.
The gorse is yellow on the heath,  The banks with speedwell flowers are gay, The oaks are budding; and beneath, The hawthorn soon will bear the wreath,  The silver wreath of May.
The welcome guest of settled Spring,  The Swallow too is come at last; Just at sun-set, when thrushes sing, I saw her dash with rapid wing,  And hail'd her as she pass'd.
Come, summer visitant, attach  To my reed roof your nest of clay, And let my ear your music catch Low twittering underneath the thatch  At the gray dawn of day.
As fables tell, an Indian Sage,  The Hindostani woods among, Could in his desert hermitage, As if 'twere mark'd in written page,  Translate the wild bird's song.
I wish I did his power possess,  That I might learn, fleet bird, from thee, What our vain systems only guess, And know from what wide wilderness  You came across the sea.
I would a little while restrain  Your rapid wing, that I might hear Whether on clouds that bring the rain, You sail'd above the western main,  The wind your charioteer.
In Afric, does the sultry gale  Thro' spicy bower, and palmy grove, Bear the repeated Cuckoo's tale? Dwells there a time, the wandering Rail  Or the itinerant Dove?
Were you in Asia? O relate,  If there your fabled sister's woes She seem'd in sorrow to narrate; Or sings she but to celebrate  Her nuptials with the rose?
I would enquire how journeying long,  The vast and pathless ocean o'er, You ply again those pinions strong, And come to build anew among  The scenes you left before;
But if, as colder breezes blow,  Prophetic of the waning year, You hide, tho' none know when or how, In the cliff's excavated brow,  And linger torpid here;
Thus lost to life, what favouring dream  Bids you to happier hours awake; And tells, that dancing in the beam, The light gnat hovers o'er the stream,  The May-fly on the lake?
Or if, by instinct taught to know  Approaching dearth of insect food; To isles and willowy aits you go, And crouding on the pliant bough,  Sink in the dimpling flood:
How learn ye, while the cold waves boom  Your deep and ouzy couch above, The time when flowers of promise bloom, And call you from your transient tomb,  To light, and life, and love?
Alas! how little can be known,  Her sacred veil where Nature draws; Let baffled Science humbly own, Her mysteries understood alone,  By Him who gives her laws.

# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Haddock, John A.

Edition of 1892.
​HADDOCK, John A., aëronaut, b. 17 Oct., 1823. In companionship with John La Mountain he made the second of two memorable balloon journeys, for the purpose of testing the upper currents of the atmosphere as a means of travelling. The two voyagers left Watertown, N. Y., on 22 Sept., 1859, late in the afternoon, and sailed almost due north to a point 150 miles north of Ottawa city, Canada, making the journey of 300 miles, the greater part of it after dark, in about four hours.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Haenke, Thaddeus

Edition of 1900.
​HAENKE, Thaddeus, South American naturalist, b. in Kreibitz, Bohemia, 5 Oct., 1761; d. in Cochabamba, Peru, in 1817. He studied in the universities of Prague and Vienna, and devoted himself to botany, especially under the guidance of Jacquin, to whose “Collectanea” he contributed an account of the “Flora of the Austrian Alps.” In 1789 he entered the service of the Spanish government as botanist, in order to accompany Malaspina in his tour round the world. Having reached Spain too late, he embarked at Cadiz for Montevideo, and, after suffering shipwreck, finally joined Malaspina, in Chili, accompanying him in his voyage to the north, along the American coast as far as Nootka sound in Vancouver island. He returned by sea to the port of Acapulco and travelled through every part of Mexico. He then embarked again, and, after visiting several groups of islands in the South sea, landed at Concepcion, Chili, in 1794. He purchased land thirty miles from Cochabamba, Peru, and passed the rest of his life alternately in Cochabamba or on his estate, on which he opened and worked a silver-mine. He ascended the volcano of Arequipa, and published notes of his geological observations, founded a botanic garden at Cochabamba, and enriched it with exotic plants collected in his travels. He took poison by mistake in 1817, and died from its effects. He bequeathed his botanic collections to his native country, but only a part of them reached their destination. They were placed in the National museum of Prague. Haenke did not publish any narrative of his explorations, but left numerous notes on his collections and some manuscripts, which other botanists have utilized. The “Reliquiæ Haenkianæ” was published after his death (Prague, 1825). In the beginning of this work there is a life of the naturalist by Count von Sternberg. A copy of Haenke's “Introduccion ó la historia natural de Cochabamba,” printed in Lima and dated 15 Feb., 1799, fell into the hands of Azara, who published it in his “Travels in South America.” A memoir addressed by Haenke to the governor of the province of Cochabamba, and dated 20 April, 1799, entitled “Memoria sobre los rios navegables que fluyen al Marañon, procedentes de las Cordilleras del Perú,” was published by José Arenales (Buenos Ayres, 1833).
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Gándara y Navarro, José de la

Edition of 1888.
​GÁNDARA Y NAVARRO, José de la (gan'-da-ra-e-nav-ar'-ro), Spanish soldier, born in Bilbao, 15 October 1820. He entered the military College as a cadet in 1832, joined the army in 1834 as sublieutenant, and served in the campaign against the Carlists till 1839, participating in all the battles. Afterward he served with distinction in the colonies, and, after reaching the rank of brigadier, was appointed, in 1857, governor of the islands of Fernando Poo and Annobon y Corisco. In 1862 he became major general, and in November of that year was made military governor and commander-in-chief of the province of Santiago de Cuba. The insurrection against the Spanish domination of Santo Domingo, which had been annexed in 1861, began in the department of Cibao in February, 1863; the troops were soon driven into the coast-towns, and the interior cities wrested from them. Gandara, without waiting for orders from the home-government, despatched re-enforcements to his comrades by the frigate " Isabel II.," then in port. He afterward received orders to march with all the forces at his command to the assistance of the commander-in-chief. He landed in Puerto Plata, 17 September 1863, driving the insurgent forces back, and afterward occupied the City of Santo Domingo and San Cristobal, the latter after a series of bloody engagements with the enemy, in 1864 he was promoted to lieutenant-general and appointed captain-general and commander-in-chief of the island, and in that year won the battle of Montecristi. The provisional government now began peace negotiations, which, however, led to no favorable issue. Meanwhile the home government resolved to abandon the struggle, and in May, 1865, Gandara, with his troops, evacuated the island. He subsequently received the appointment of governor-general of the Philippine islands, and, after the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy, was military chief of the king's household, and captain-general of Castile. He published " Historia de la Anexion y Guerra de Santo Domingo."

Chapter IV.—Snares Laid for the Gentiles.
“And with us, indeed, who have had handed down from our forefathers the worship of the God who made all things, and also the mystery of the books which are able to deceive, he will not prevail; but with those from amongst the Gentiles who have the polytheistic fancy bred in them, and who know not the falsehoods of the Scriptures, he will prevail much. And not only he; but if any other shall recount to those from among the Gentiles any vain, dreamlike, richly set out story against God, he will be believed, because from their childhood their minds are accustomed to take in things spoken against God. And few there shall be of them, as a few out of a multitude, who through ingenuousness shall not be willing so much as to hear an evil word against the God who made all things. And to these alone from amongst the Gentiles it shall be vouchsafed to be saved. Let not any one of you, therefore, altogether complain of Simon, or of any one else; for nothing happens unjustly, since even the falsehoods of Scripture are with good reason presented for a test.”

Chapter XLIV.—God’s Decrees.
“But what? Does not Moses pre-intimate the sins of the people, and predict their dispersion among the nations? But if He gave foreknowledge to Moses, how can it be that He had it not Himself? But He has it. And if He has it, as we have also shown, it is an extravagant saying that He reflected, and that He repented, and that He went down to see, and whatever else of this sort. Whatsoever things being fore-known before they come to pass as about to befall, take issue by a wise economy, without repentance.
# Ante-Nicene Fathers/Volume VIII/Pseudo-Clementine Literature/The Clementine Homilies/Homily III/Chapter 39

Chapter XXXIX.—Defects Ascribed to God.
“Therefore also Adam, being made at first after his likeness, is created blind, and is said not to have knowledge of good or evil, and is found a transgressor, and is driven out of paradise, and is punished with death. In like manner also, he who made him, because he sees not in all places, says with reference to the overthrow of Sodom, ‘Come, and let us go down, and see whether they do according to their cry which comes to me; or if not, that I may know.’ Thus he shows himself ignorant. And in his saying respecting Adam, ‘Let us drive him out, lest he put forth his hand and touch the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever;’ in saying Lest he is ignorant; and in driving him out lest he should eat and live for ever, he is also envious. And whereas it is written that ‘God repented that he had made man,’ this implies both repentance and ignorance. For this reflection is a view by which one, through ignorance, wishes to inquire into the result of the things which he wills, or it is the act of one repenting on account of the event not being according to his expectation. And whereas it is written, ‘And the Lord smelled a scent of sweetness,’ it is the part of one in need; and his being pleased with the fat of flesh is the part of one who is not good. But his tempting, as it is written, ‘And God did tempt Abraham,’ is the part of one who is wicked, and who is ignorant of the issue of the experiment.”

Chapter XLI.—“Status Quæstionis.”
Then said Simon: “You are manifestly avoiding the hearing of the charge from the Scriptures against your God.” Then Peter: “You yourself appear to me to be doing this; for he who avoids the order of inquiry, does not wish a true investigation to be made. Hence I, who proceed in an orderly manner, and wish that the writer should first be considered, am manifestly desirous to walk in a straight path.” Then Simon: “First confess that if the things written against the Creator are true, he is not above all, since, according to the Scriptures, he is subject to all evil; then afterwards we shall inquire as to the writer.” Then said Peter: “That I may not seem to speak against your want of order through unwillingness to enter upon the investigation, I answer you. I say that if the things written against God are true, they do not show that God is wicked.” Then said Simon:  “How can you maintain that?”

Chapter XLIII.—God’s Foreknowledge.
“But if Adam, being the work of God, had foreknowledge, much more the God who created him. And that is false which is written that God reflected, as if using reasoning on account of ignorance; and that the Lord tempted Abraham, that He might know if he would endure it; and that which is written, ‘Let us go down, and see if they are doing according to the cry of them which cometh to me; and if not, that I may know.’ And, not to extend my discourse too far, whatever sayings ascribe ignorance to Him, or anything else that is evil, being upset by other sayings which affirm the contrary, are proved to be false. But because He does indeed foreknow, He says to Abraham, ‘Thou shalt assuredly know that thy seed shall be sojourners in a land that is not their own; and they shall enslave them, and shall evil entreat them, and humble them four hundred years. But the nation to which they shall be in bondage will I judge, and after that they shall come out hither with much property; but thou shalt depart to thy fathers with peace, being nourished in a good old age; and in the fourth generation they shall return hither, for the sins of the Amorites are hitherto not filled up.’
