MADEIRA.
BY L. E. L.
On the deep and quiet sea  The day was fast declining; In the far empurpled sky  A few bright stars were shining.
And the moon looked through the clouds  Which round her path were sweeping, Like some lone and gentle one  Who Love's vigil late is keeping.
Anchored off that beauteous coast  A noble ship is lying, While above her stately mast  Are English colours flying.
For the shore is now in sight,  And the perfume of its flowers, And the odour of its vines,  Make sweet the twilight hours.
There is a silence in that ship;  Each step is softly taken, As around some dear one's bed  Whose sleep they feared to waken.
But it is not sleep, now rocked  By the heaving of the billow, But a darker slumber flits  Around a weary pillow.
They have brought her from the land  Where her parents' ashes slumber; They have brought her to the south,  But her days have told their number.
Though the vault that bears her name  Will not open for another, And she is the only child  That sleeps not by her mother;
Yet the loveliest and the last  Of that ancient line is failing, Like those evanescent hues  In the shadowy west now paling.
She is laid upon the deck,  For the cool land-breeze is blowing; But the last faint warmth of life  Fast from her cheek is going.
And her loosened long black hair  Is sweeping darkly round her, As if it were the solemn pall  That already bound her.
But the sweet pale mouth was calm,  And the eyes were meekly closing, And upon the marble cheek  Was the silken lash reposing;
Softly as a little child  Sleeps on its mother's bosom, Sweetly as a tender flower  Closes its languid blossom.
There were eyes, unused to weep,  Around her dim with weeping; Yet death seemed not for tears,  'Twas so like sweetest sleeping.
Not beneath the deep sea waves,  Vexed with perpetual motion, Neither in the sparry caves  Of the tumultuous ocean,
Did that youthful maiden rest—  She had more fit entombing In that balmy southern isle,  With its summer's sunny blooming.
There the moon will shed her light,  There the watching stars burn clearer; For never yet did earth enshrine  One fairer or one dearer.

This poem is transcribed from Landon. Poems from the Annuals, by F. J. Sypher
THE ROSE AND LAUREL LEAF
Oú va Et la feuille de la rose, et la feuille du laurier?
On thy path of music whither  May, sweet wind, thy wandering be? And say, what dost thou bring hither  On thy azure wings with thee?
My wild course has been where, flowing,  The silver fountains sing; From the roses by them growing  Floats a rose-leaf on my wing.
"Through a grove of laurel breathing  Came a young poet’s song; From the green boughs round him wreathing  I bore a leaf along."
For that leaf of crimson shining,  That one on shadeless hue— What art thou, sweet wind, designing?  With those leaves what wilt thou do?
"The red leaf of the lover,  That green leaf of the brave— The fair earth I bear them over,  To leave them on the grave."

* THE DISCONSOLATE
* Painted by H. CorbouldEngraved by C. Rolls
THE DISCONSOLATE.
Down from her hand it fell, the scroll
 She could no longer trace;
The grief of love is in her soul,
 Its shame upon her face.
Her head has dropp'd against her arm,
 The faintness of despair;
Her lip has lost its red rose charm,
 For all but death is there.
And there it lies, the faith of years,
 The register'd above,
Deepen'd by woman's anxious tears,
 Her first and childish love.
Are there no ties to keep the heart,
 A vow'd and sacred thing?
Theirs had known all life's better part,
 The freshness of its spring.
It had begun in days of joy,
 In childhood, and had been
When he was but a gallant boy,
 And she a fairy queen.
Memory was as the same in both;
 The love their young hearts dream'd,
Strong with their strength, grown with their growth,
 A second nature seem'd.
How oft on that old castle wall
 Appears their mingled name!
Their pictures hang within the hall—  They'll never seem the same.
The shadows of the heart will throw
 Their sadness over all;
And darker for their early glow
 Those heavy shadows fall.
Little she dream'd of time to come,
 While lingering at his side;
De Lisle would seek another home,
 And win another bride.
Like a fair flower beneath the storm
 Is bow'd that radiant brow;
But pride is in that fragile form,
 It droops not aye as now.
That sea-nymph foot will join the dance,
 That face grow bright again;
And rose-red cheek and sunshine glance
 Deny their hour of pain.
But deem not that she can forget,
 Howe'er she scorn the past;
Love's fate upon one die is set,
 And that for her is cast.
'Tis not the lover that is lost,
 The love, for which we grieve;
But for the price which they have cost,
 The memory which they leave.
The knowledge of the bitter truth—
 Contrast of word and deed—
That Hope, religion of our youth,
 Can falsify her creed—
Trusting affection, confidence,
 The holy, and the deep;
Feelings which rain'd sweet influence—  It is for these we weep.
Maiden, I pity thee, thy trust
 Too short a life hath known;
Too soon thy temple is in dust,
 Thy first fond faith o'erthrown.
The heart betray'd believes no more,
 Distrust eats in the mind;
Never may after-time restore
 The years it leaves behind.L. E. L.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Jowett, Benjamin

​Jowett, Benjamin (1817-1893).—Scholar, was b. at Camberwell, and ed. at St. Paul's School and Balliol Coll., where he had a distinguished career, becoming Fellow 1838, Tutor 1840, and Master 1870. He held the Regius Professorship of Greek 1855-93, though for the first 10 years he was, owing to the opposition of his theological opponents in the Univ., deprived of a large part of the usual emoluments. He was a keen and formidable controversialist, and was usually found on what was, for the time, the unpopular side. His contribution (an essay on The Interpretation of Scripture) to the famous Essays and Reviews, which appeared in 1860, brought him into strong collision with powerful sections of theological opinion, to which he had already given offence by his commentaries on the Epistles to the Thessalonians, Galatians, and Romans. His views were, indeed, generally considered to be extremely latitudinarian. Latterly he exercised an extraordinary influence in the Univ., and was held in reverence by his pupils, many of whom have ​risen to eminence. His chief works are translations, with learned introductions, of The Dialogues of Plato, of Thucydides, and of the Politics of Aristotle. He also, in conjunction with Prof. Campbell, brought out an ed. of The Republic of Plato. He held the degree of LL.D. from the Univ. of Edin. (1884), and Camb. (1890), and Doctor of Theology of Leyden (1875).

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Kames, Henry Home, Lord

In 1748 he pub. a collection of Decisions of the Court of Session. It is, however, on his philosophical and historical writings that his literary fame rests. His writings include Essays on the Principles of Morality and Natural Religion (1751), The Elements of Criticism (1762), in which he sought for principles based on the elements of human nature; Sketches of the History of Man (1774), and Loose Hints on Education, in which many modern views are anticipated. In all these works, while the style is stiff and crabbed, there is much original thought. Lord K. was also an eminent authority upon agriculture, on which he in 1777 pub. a work entitled The Gentleman Farmer.

# Alcohol, a Dangerous and Unnecessary Medicine/Introduction

INTRODUCTION.
This book is the outcome of many years of study. With the exception of a few quotations, none of the material has ever before appeared in any book. The writer has been indebted for years past to many of the physicians mentioned in the following pages for copies of pamphlets and magazines, and for newspaper articles, bearing upon the medical study of alcohol. Indeed, had it not been for the kindly counsels and hearty co-operation of physicians, she could never have accomplished all that was laid upon her to do as a state and national superintendent of Medical Temperance for the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union. She is also under obligation for helps received from the secretaries of several State Boards of Health, and from eminent chemists and pharmacists.
The object of the book is to put into the hands of the people a statement of the views regarding the medical properties of alcohol held by those physicians who make little, or no use of this drug. In most cases their views are given in their own ​language, so that the book is, of necessity, largely a compilation.
It is hoped that while the laity may be glad to peruse these pages because of the very useful and interesting information to be obtained from them, the medical profession, also, may be pleased to find, in brief form, the teachings of some of their most distinguished brethren upon a question now frequentlyup for discussion in society meetings.
The writer does not presume to set forth her own opinions upon a question which is still a subject of dispute among the members of a learned profession; she simply culls from the writings of those members of that profession who, having made thorough examination of the claims of alcohol, have decided that this drug, as ordinarily used, is more harmful than beneficial, and that medical practice would be upon a higher plane, were it driven entirely from the pharmacopœia.

# A First Series of Hymns and Songs/Sacred Songs/The Good Shepherd

7. The Good Shepherd.
I met the Good Shepherd but now on the plain,
As homeward he carried his lost one again:
I marvell'd how gently his burden he bore,
And as he pass'd by me I knelt to adore.
Oh, Shepherd, Good Shepherd, thy wounds they are deep.
The wolves have sore hurt thee in saving thy sheep;
Thy raiment all over with crimson is dyed,
And what is this rent they have made in thy side?
​Ah me, how the thorns have entangled thy hair,
And cruelly riven that forehead so fair!
How feebly thou drawest thy faltering breath,
And lo, on thy face is the paleness of death!
Oh, Shepherd, Good Shepherd, and is it for me Such grievous affliction hath fallen on thee?
Oh, then let me strive, for the love thou hast borne,
To give thee no longer occasion to mourn.
# A First Series of Hymns and Songs/Sacred Songs/The Little Children

14. The Little Children.
Sporting through the forest wide,
Playing by the water-side,
Wand'ring o'er the heathy fells,
Down within the woodland dells,
'Mid the mighty, 'mid the mean,
Little children may be seen;
Like the flowers that spring up fair,
Bright, and countless everywhere.
In the far isles of the main,
In the desert's lone domain,
In the rugged mountain glen
'Mid the tribes of savage men, ​Wheresoe'er a foot hath gone,
Wheresoe'er the sun hath shone
O'er a league of peopled ground,
Little children may be found.
Little children, not alone
On the wide earth are ye known,
'Mid its labours, 'mid its cares,
'Mid its sufferings, 'mid its snares;
Where no sinful thing hath trod,
In the presence of your God,
Spotless, blameless, glorified,
Little children, ye abide.
# A First Series of Hymns and Songs/Sacred Songs/The Legend of the Infant Jesus serving at Mass

29. The Legend of the Infant Jesus serving at Mass.
Come, children, all whose joy it is
To serve at Holy Mass,
And hear what once in days of faith
In England came to pass.
It chanc'd a priest was journeying
Through wildering ways of wood;
And there, where few came passing by,
A lonely chapel stood.
He stay'd his feet, that pilgrim priest,
His morning Mass to say,
And put the sacred vestments on
That near the altar lay.
But who shall serve the Holy Mass,
For all is silent there! He kneels him down, and patient waits
The peasant's hour of prayer.
When lo! a child of wondrous grace
Before the altar steals,
And down beside that lowly priest
In Infant beauty kneels.
He serves the Mass; his voice is sweet,
Like distant music low;
With downcast eye, and ready hand,
And footfall hush'd and slow.
​"Et Verbum caro factum est,"
He lingers till he hears;
Then turning to the Virgin's shrine,
In glory disappears.
So round the altar, children dear,
Press gladly in God's name,
For once to serve at Holy Mass
The infant Jesus came.
# A First Series of Hymns and Songs/Sacred Songs/The Christian Mother's Cradle Hymn

8. The Christian Mother's Cradle Hymn.
Hush, my babe, lie still and slumber,
Holy angels guard thy bed,
Heavenly blessings without number
Gently falling on thy head.
How much better thou'rt attended
Than thy Saviour chose to be,
When from heaven he descended
And became a child like thee!
Soft and easy is thy cradle,
Coarse and hard thy Saviour lay;
For his birth-place was a stable,
And his softest bed was hay. ​Was there nothing but a manger
Hapless sinners could afford, To receive the heavenly stranger.
Their Redeemer and their Lord?
See, the humble shepherds round him
Gaze with mingled love and fear;
Where they sought him, there they found him,
With bis virgin Mother near,
Lo, he slumbers in his manger,
Where the horned oxen feed;
Peace, my darling, here's no danger,
Here no ox is near thy bed.
'Twas to save thee, child, from dying,
From the ever-burning flame,
Bitter groans and endless crying,
That this holy Infant came.
May'st thou live to know and fear him,
Trust and love him all thy days,
Then to dwell for ever near him,
See his face, and sing his praise.
# A First Series of Hymns and Songs/Sacred Songs/The Annunciation

24. The Annunciation.
The day is o'er, the moon serenely beaming.
In silver light hath field and forest drest; ​A thousand twinkling stars are gently gleaming,
The world is hush'd, and all is laid to rest.
Save one, who wakeful in her lonely dwelling, Of Juda born, a stem of Jesse's rod,
A virgin pure, all others far excelling,
Uplifts her heart in tranquil prayer to God.
The while she prays, behold the silence broken,
She starts, a look of fear o'erspreads her face;
She hears, till then to mortal ears unspoken,
Those words of love, "Hail, Lady, full of grace!
Fear not, the Lord is with thee; thou art chosen
The Virgin Mother of thy God to be;
And many a heart in sin and guilt now frozen,
Shall melt beneath the sunbeam born of thee."
O Spouse of God, O Queen of earth and heaven,
O holy Mother of the Incarnate Word,
In meekest accents is thine answer given,
"Behold the willing handmaid of the Lord."
