# Songs of a Savoyard/The Suicide's Grave

From The Mikado.
THE SUICIDE'S GRAVE.
ON a tree by a river a little tomtit
Sang "Willow, titwillow, titwillow!"
And I said to him, "Dicky-bird, why do you sit
Singing 'Willow, titwillow, titwillow'?
Is it weakness of intellect, birdie?" I cried,
"Or a rather tough worm in your little inside?"
With a shake of his poor little head he replied,
"Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow!"
He slapped at his chest, as he sat on that bough,
Singing "Willow, titwillow, titwillow!"
And a cold perspiration bespangled his brow,
Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow!
He sobbed and he sighed, and a gurgle he gave,
Then he threw himself into the billowy wave,
And an echo arose from the suicide's grave—
"Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow!"
Now I feel just as sure as I'm sure that my name
Isn't Willow, titwillow, titwillow,
That 'twas blighted affection that made him exclaim,
"Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow!"
And if you remain callous and obdurate, I
Shall perish as he did, and you will know why,
Though I probably shall not exclaim as I die,
"Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow!"
# Songs of a Savoyard/The Æsthete

From Patience.
THE ÆSTHETE.
IF you're anxious for to shine in the high æsthetic line, as a man of culture rare,
You must get up all the germs of the transcendental terms, and plant them everywhere.
You must lie upon the daisies and discourse in novel phrases of your complicated state of mind,
The meaning doesn't matter if it's only idle chatter of a transcendental kind.
And everyone will say,
As you walk your mystic way,
"If this young man expresses himself in terms too deep for me,
Why, what a very singularly deep young man this deep young man must be!"
Be eloquent in praise of the very dull old days which have long since passed away,
And convince 'em, if you can, that the reign of good Queen Anne was Culture's palmiest day.
Of course you will pooh-pooh whatever's fresh and new, and declare it's crude and mean,
And that Art stopped short in the cultivated court of the Empress Josephine.
And everyone will say,
As you walk your mystic way,
"If that's not good enough for him which is good enough for me, Why, what a very cultivated kind of youth this kind of youth must be!"
Then a sentimental passion of a vegetable fashion must excite your languid spleen,
An attachment à la Plato for a bashful young potato, or a not-too-French French bean.
Though the Philistines may jostle, you will rank as an apostle in the high æsthetic band,
If you walk down Piccadilly with a poppy or a lily in your mediæval hand.
And everyone will say.
As you walk your flowery way,
"If he's content with a vegetable love which would certainly not suit me,
Why, what a most particularly pure young man this pure young man must be!"
# Songs of a Savoyard/The Policeman's Lot

From The Pirates of Penzance.
THE POLICEMAN'S LOT.
WHEN a felon's not engaged in his employment,
Or maturing his felonious little plans,
His capacity for innocent enjoyment
Is just as great as any honest man's.
Our feelings we with difficulty smother
When constabulary duty's to be done:
Ah, take one consideration with another,
A policeman's lot is not a happy one!
When the enterprising burglar isn't burgling,
When the cut-throat isn't occupied in crime,
He loves to hear the little brook a-gurgling,
And listen to the merry village chime.
When the coster's finished jumping on his mother,
He loves to lie a-basking in the sun:
Ah, take one consideration with another,
The policeman's lot is not a happy one!
# Ruckman v. Cory

Supreme Court of the United States
129 U.S. 387
RUCKMAN v. CORY
Appeal from the Circuit Court of the United States for the Southern District of Illinois
No. 1199. Argued: Jan. 8, 1889 --- Decided: Jan. 28, 1889
B executed and delivered to C his bond in 1855 or 1856 to convey to him a tract of land for a consideration named. C entered into possession, borrowed money of R, paid the consideration money in full, and made valuable improvements on the place. At C's request the conveyance was made to R, in 1858, to secure him. Four years later R, having in the meanwhile been paid in full by C, conveyed the property to a woman without consideration, and then married her. After some time the married couple separated. The wife then brought ejectment to recover possession from C, (who during the whole time had remained in possession,) and obtained a verdict and judgment on the verdict for possession. Thereupon C took a new trial as of right, under the laws of Illinois, and, in 1883 filed his bill in equity against the wife to compel a conveyance of the land to hun; Held,
(1) That C's remedy was in equity;
(2) That he had not been guilty of such laches as would close the doors of a court of equity against him,
(3) That the evidence in the record was sufficient to support a decree In complainant's favor.
Laches cannot be imputed to one in the peaceable possession of land under an equitable title, for delay in resorting to a court of equity for protection against the legal title; since possession is notice of his equitable rights and he need assert them only when he finds occasion to do so.
A grantee in a deed is not affected by declarations of a grantor, made after the execution and delivery of the deed, unless, with full knowledge of them, he acquiesces in or sanctions them.
In equity. Decree for complainant. Respondent appealed. The case is stated in the opinion.
Mr. William M. Springer and Mr. Henry W. Wells for appellant.
Mr. John M. Palmer for appellee.

FOR THE DELIGHTFUL CHILD SPIRIT OF THE RHYMES OF
WITTER BYNNER
AM DEEPLY GRATEFUL AND THAT PART OF THE PLAY WHICH IS MINE I DEDICATE TO HIM WITH SINCERE APPRECIATION
BY THE SAME AUTHOR
MOFFAT. YARD & CO.
FOREWORD
The idea of the Selfish Giant in this play has been taken from the story of Oscar Wilde’s The Selfish Giant. Spring would not come to his garden because he would not let the children play in it. It was always winter there.
One morning he woke up hearing the music of a linnet singing in his garden. He jumped out of bed and saw a most wonderful sight, “flowers were looking up through the green grass and laughing,” and in every tree was a little child; but one little boy was too tiny to climb the tree and the Giant’s heart melted and he helped the little child into the tree. The little child kissed him and forever after the children played in the Giant’s garden, because his heart had softened through love of the little child.
The children never saw the child again. But one day he came to the Giant, who saw on the palms of the child’s hands “the prints of two nails and the prints of two nails were on the little feet.”
​The little child had come to take the Giant to play in his garden, “which is Paradise.”
My indebtedness to this story is the character of the Selfish Giant. The little play of Snickerty Nick is not a dramatization of The Selfish Giant. The character of Snickerty Nick is an original character and the play centers around him. The little boy is only a loving and beloved child, and Spring and Winter are personitied by faeries and gnomes.
To Arthur Rackham I tender my most sincere thanks whose magic touch, as in Peter Pan, Grimm’s Faery Tales and Undine, making real all faeries and gnomes, endears all child life to grown-ups as well as to children.
Julia Ellsworth Ford.

# Same Case on Appeal/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
86 U.S. 513
Same Case on Appeal
The petitioner moves the court to advance the case. Cases involving great hardships are frequently brought here for revision, and in such cases it is competent for the court to advance the same on motion. Still the motion must be denied, as it is well-settled law that neither an appeal nor a writ of error will lie in such a case. Hence it was held in the case of Ex parte Bradley, that mandamus from this court to a subordinate court was a proper remedy to restore an attorney at law, disbarred by such subordinate court, for a contempt committed by him before another court, as in such a case the court issuing the order disbarring the attorney had no jurisdiction to pass the order.
Whether the present case can be distinguished from the case cited will not now be decided, but the court is of opinion that the remedy of the party, if any, in this court, is not by an appeal.
MOTION DENIED.

# Same Sort of Girl

* information about this edition.

Song from the musical The Girl from Utah.
[Verse]
    (He) I won't deny that I've had fancies galore
    say three or four Well, may be more
    I've often thought: This one I truly adore
    Then in a minute I'd find there's nothing in it.
[Refrain]
    Same sort of girl and the same sort of boy,
    Same sort of whirl in the same round of joy,
    Same "making eyes" and the same tender sighs,
    same moonlight walk, same silly talk,
    Same old duet sung by Adam and Eve,
    Same sort of fibs that no one can believe,
    I thought that old game was one that I knew.
    But it's so different with you.
[Verse]
    (She) I've been a summer girl and met two or three
    who I agree Looked nice to me
    Each one I fancied my ideal might be
    Then I'd waken and find I had been mistaken.

# Sam Loyd's Cyclopedia of 5000 Puzzles Tricks and Conundrums/The Squarest Game on the Beach

Proposition: Can you mark off exactly 50 points?
My chum and I were taking in the side shows the other day, when we struck what the man told us was the squarest game in the world. There were ten little dummies which you were to knock over with base balls. The man said take as many throws as you like at a cent a piece and stand as close as you please. Add up the numbers on all the men that you knock out and when the sum amounts to exactly 50, neither more nor less, you get a genuine Maggie Cline cigar with a gold band, worth a quarter.
Our money gave out before we learned how to win, and we noticed that lots of people didn't smoke any more Maggie Cline's than we did. The man who run the business said he didn't mind telling us that people let their prejudices ruin their chances. An Irishman would always soak the coon, while the darkies had it in for that Chinaman, and as a matter of fact every one had their race prejudices which kept them from winning.
Can you show how we might have made exactly 50 points, and won a Maggie Cline cigar with a gold band around it?
Puzzle of the Iceman
Every blank is to be filled with a word ending in i-c-e.
At the time of the summer ——, the iceman, whom no one should accuse of —— or ——,put up a —— at an —— in his ——, put the effect that with —— toward none he would give good —— to all, without —— or ——.
Accordingly, he supplied the politician with ——, the lawyer with ——, the doctor with a ——, the judge with ——, the builder with a —— and a ——, the gambler and his —— in their den of —— with ——, the bridal party with ——, the clergyman with a ——, the cat with ——, the drinker with ——, the geologist with ——, the woodman with a ——, the sailor with a ——, the dentist with a ——, the dressmaker with a ——, and no one with the ——.
But in spite of all his efforts to supply ice to ——, some people objected so strongly to his ——, that they applied to the —— for —— regarding a ——, by which they might either push him into a —— or over a ——!

SONGS OF THE AFFECTIONS,

OTHER POEMS.
BY FELICIA HEMANS.
They tell but dreams—a lonely spirit's dreams:— Yet ever through their fleeting imagery Wanders a vein of melancholy love. An aimless thought of home:—as in the song Of the caged skylark ye may deem there dwells A passionate memory of blue skies and flowers. And living streams—far off!

# Songs of the Affections, with Other Poems/Come Home

COME HOME!
Come home!—there is a sorrowing breath  In music since ye went, And the early flower-scents wander by,  With mournful memories blent. The tones in every household voice  Are grown more sad and deep, And the sweet word—brother—wakes a wish  To turn aside and weep.
O ye Beloved! come home!—the hour  Of many a greeting tone, The time of hearth-light and of song,  Returns—and ye are gone! And darkly, heavily it falls  On the forsaken room,
Burdening the heart with tenderness,  That deepens 'midst the gloom.
Where finds it you, ye wandering ones?  With all your boyhood's glee Untamed, beneath the desert's palm,  Or on the lone mid-sea? By stormy hills of battles old?  Or where dark rivers foam? —Oh! life is dim where ye are not—  Back, ye beloved, come home!
Come with the leaves and winds of spring,  And swift birds, o'er the main! Our love is grown too sorrowful—  Bring us its youth again! Bring the glad tones to music back!  Still, still your home is fair, The spirit of your sunny life  Alone is wanting there!
# Songs of the Affections, with Other Poems/Corinne at the Capitol

CORINNE AT THE CAPITOL.
Les femmes doivent penser qu'il est dans cette carrière bien peu de sorte qui puissent valoir la plus obscure vie d'une femme aimée et d'une mère heureuse. Madame de Stael.
Daughter of th' Italian heaven! Thou, to whom its fires are given, Joyously thy car hath roll'd Where the conqueror's pass'd of old; And the festal sun that shone, O'er three* hundred triumphs gone, Makes thy day of glory bright, With a shower of golden light.
Now thou tread'st th' ascending road, Freedom's foot so proudly trode; While, from tombs of heroes borne, From the dust of empire shorn, Flowers upon thy graceful head, Chaplets of all hues, are shed. In a soft and rosy rain, Touch'd with many a gemlike stain.
Thou hast gain'd the summit now! Music hails thee from below;— Music, whose rich notes might stir Ashes of the sepulchre; Shaking with victorious notes All the bright air as it floats. Well may woman's heart beat high Unto that proud harmony!
Now afar it rolls—it dies— And thy voice is heard to rise
With a low and lovely tone In its thrilling power alone; And thy lyre's deep silvery string, Touch'd as by a breeze's wing, Murmurs tremblingly at first, Ere the tide of rapture burst.
All the spirit of thy sky Now hath lit thy large dark eye, And thy cheek a flush hath caught From the joy of kindled thought; And the burning words of song From thy lip flow fast and strong, With a rushing stream's delight In the freedom of its might.
Radiant daughter of the sun! Now thy living wreath is won. Crown'd of Rome!—Oh! art thou not Happy in that glorious lot?—
Happier, happier far than thou, With the laurel on thy brow, She that makes the humblest hearth Lovely but to one on earth!
# Songs of a Savoyard/When a Merry Maiden Marries

From The Gondoliers.
WHEN A MERRY MAIDEN MARRIES.
WHEN a merry maiden marries,
Sorrow goes and pleasure tarries;
Every sound becomes a song,
All is right and nothing's wrong!
From to-day and ever after
Let your tears be tears of laughter—
Every sigh that finds a vent
Be a sigh of sweet content!
When you marry merry maiden,
Then the air with love is laden;
Every flower is a rose,
Every goose becomes a swan,
Every kind of trouble goes
Where the last year's snows have gone!
Sunlight takes the place of shade
When you marry merry maid!
When a merry maiden marries
Sorrow goes and pleasure tarries;
Every sound becomes a song,
All is right, and nothing's wrong.
Gnawing Care and aching Sorrow,
Get ye gone until to-morrow;
Jealousies in grim array,
Ye are things of yesterday!
When you marry merry maiden,
Then the air with joy is laden;
All the corners of the earth
Ring with music sweetly played,
Worry is melodious mirth,
Grief is joy in masquerade;
Sullen night is laughing day—
All the year is merry May!
