# Siamese Musical Instruments/Preface

P r e f a c e .
The Royal Institute has been commanded by the King to select a book to be printed for distribution at the cremation of Lady Manopakorn, Lady-in-waiting to the Queen, who died while in attendance upon Their Majesties during the royal visit to French Indo-China last year; whose cremation is an official function by the gracious command of the King. It is evident to me, on whom has fallen the task of finding a suitable book, that attendance at the cremation will be large, for the deceased lady and her husband have been fortunate in the possession of a wide circle of friends, both Siamese and foreigners. The King's command that the cremation be an official function is widely appreciated as a token of His Majesty's recognition of the sterling character of the lady, and it will have the effect of increasing further the number of those attending the ceremony. The book selected for the occasion should, consequently, be one which is acceptable not only to Siamese readers, but also to those whose knowledge of the language of the country does not extend to the reading of books. It occurred to me in my search that perhaps my brochure on Siamese musical instruments, which was published about two years ago, would be suitable, for it imparts information on an interesting subject. After its publication in Siamese, the book was translated into French (Extrême-Asie, September 1928) and Dutch (Nederlandsch-Indië Oud & Nieuw, July 1929), but the text as printed in the first edition is somewhat incomplete, nor are the illustrations as good as they might be. If the book were revised and enlarged, its illustrations improved, and an English translation provided, a new edition might prove acceptable. This choice having been submitted to His Majesty, the present (second) edition of "Siamese Musical Instruments" is issued with the approval of the King.
The text of the book has been revised throughout and an English translation, the work of the staff of the Royal Institute, has been added. The illustrations are entirely new, and have been pre​pared with the co-operation of Chao Phaya Varabongs, Minister of the Royal Household, by whose order the artistes of the Royal Orchestra assembled before the camera, with Mr. E. Groote behind it. In the case of musical instruments which are not available elsewhere, exhibits of the National Museum have been used. The Royal Institute tenders its thanks to all who kindly gave their help.

# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/Bobs

BOBS
(Field Marshal Lord Roberts of Kandahar)
THERE'S a little red-faced man, Which is Bobs, Rides the tallest 'orse 'e can— Our Bobs. If it bucks or kicks or rears, 'E can sit for twenty years With a smile round both 'is ears— Can't yer, Bobs?
Then 'ere's to Bobs Bahadur—little Bobs, Bobs, Bobs! 'E's our pukka Kandahader— Fightin' Bobs, Bobs, Bobs! 'E's the Dook of Aggy Chel; 'E's the man that done us well, An' we'll follow 'im to 'ell— Won't we, Bobs?
If a limber's slipped a trace, 'Ook on Bobs. If a marker's lost 'is place, Dress by Bobs. ​For 'e's eyes all up 'is coat, An' a bugle in 'is throat, An' you will not play the goat Under Bobs.
'E's a little down on drink Chaplain Bobs; But it keeps us outer Clink— Don't it, Bobs? So we will not complain Tho' 'e's water on the brain, If 'e leads us straight again— Blue-light Bobs.
If you stood 'im on 'is head, Father Bobs, You could spill a quart of lead Outer Bobs. 'E's been at it thirty years, An-amassin' souveneers In the way o' slugs an' spears— Ain't yer Bobs?
What 'e does not know o' war, Gen'ral Bobs, You can arst the shop next door— Can't they, Bobs? Oh, 'e's little but he's wise; 'E's terror for 'is size, An'—'e—does—not—advertize— Do yer, Bobs?
Now they've made a bloomin' Lord Outer Bobs, Which was but 'is fair reward— Weren't it, Bobs? ​ So 'e'll wear a coronet Where 'is 'elmet used to set; But we know you won't forget— Will yer, Bobs?
Then 'ere's to Bobs Bahadur—little Bobs, Bobs, Bobs, Pocket-Wellin'ton 'an arder— Fightin' Bobs, Bobs, Bobs! This ain't no bloomin' ode, But you've 'elped the soldier's load, An' for benefits bestowed, Bless yer, Bobs!

# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/Delilah

From "Departmental Ditties" (1886) Delilah is name of the woman who betrays Samson in the biblical tale. The Delilah in this poem shares many of her qualities but is given a different treatment by the narrator. Her counterpart, Ulysses, is a journalist in British India, similar to the way Rudyard Kipling began his career.
DELILAH
We have another Viceroy now, those days are dead and done Of Delilah Aberyswith and depraved Ulysses Gunne.

# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/Jobson's Amen

Jobson's Amen
"Blessed be the English and all their ways and works. Cursed be the Infidels, Hereticks, and Turks!" "Amen," quo' Jobson, "but where I used to lie Was neither Candle, Bell nor Book to curse my brethren by:
"But a palm-tree in full bearing, bowing down, bowing down, To a surf that drove unsparing at the brown, walled town— Conches in a temple, oil-lamps in a dome— And a low moon out of Africa said: 'This way home!'"
​"Blessed be the English and all that they profess. Cursed be the Savages that prance in nakedness!" "Amen," quo' Jobson, "but where I used to lie Was neither shirt nor pantaloons to catch my brethren by:
"But a well-wheel slowly creaking, going round, going round, By a water-channel leaking over drowned, warm ground— Parrots very busy in the trellised pepper-vine— And a high sun over Asia shouting: 'Rise and shine!'"
"Blessèd be the English and everything they own. Cursèd be the Infidels that bow to wood and stone!" "Amen," quo' Jobson, "but where I used to lie Was neither pew nor Gospelleer to save my brethren by:
"But a desert stretched and stricken, left and right, left and right, Where the piled mirages thicken under white-hot light— A skull beneath a sand-hill and a viper coiled inside— And a red wind out of Libya roaring: 'Run and hide!'"
"Blessèd be the English and all they make or do. Cursèd be the Hereticks who doubt that this is true!" "Amen," quo' Jobson, "but where I mean to die Is neither rule nor calliper to judge the matter by:
"But Himalaya heavenward-heading, sheer and vast, sheer and vast, In a million summits bedding on the last world's past— A certain sacred mountain where the scented cedars climb, And—the feet of my Beloved hurrying back through Time!"
# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/La Nuit Blanche

LA NUIT BLANCHE
A much-discerning Public hold The Singer generally sings Of personal and private things, And prints and sells his past for gold.
Whatever I may here disclaim, The very clever folk I sing to Will most indubitably cling to Their pet delusion, just the same.
I HAD seen, as the dawn was breaking And I staggered to my rest, Tara Devi softly shaking From the Cart Road to the crest. I had seen the spurs of Jakko Heave and quiver, swell and sink. Was it Earthquake or tobacco, Day of Doom, or Night of Drink?
In the full, fresh, fragrant morning I observed a camel crawl, Laws of gravitation scorning, On the ceiling and the wall. Then I watched a fender walking, And I heard grey leeches sing, And a red-hot monkey talking Did not seem the proper thing.
​Then a Creature, skinned and crimson, Ran about the floor and cried, And they said that I had the "jims" on, And they dosed me with bromide, And they locked me in my bedroom— Me and one wee Blood Red Mouse— Though I said:—"To give my head room "You had best unroof the house."
But my words were all unheeded, Though I told the grave M.D. That the treatment really needed Was a dip in open sea That was lapping just below me, Smooth as silver, white as snow— And it took three men to throw me When I found I could not go.
Half the night I watched the Heavens Fizz like '81 champagne— Fly to sixes and to sevens, Wheel and thunder back again; And when all was peace and order Save one planet nailed askew, Much I wept because my warder Would not let me sit it true.
After frenzied hours of waiting, When the Earth and Skies were dumb, Pealed an awful voice dictating An interminable sum, Changing to a tangle story— "What she said you said I said"— Till the Moon arose in glory, And I found her ... in my head;
​Then a Face came, blind and weeping, And It couldn't wipe Its eyes, And It muttered I was keeping Back the moonlight from the skies; So I patted It for pity, But It whistled shrill with wrath, And a huge, black Devil City Poured its peoples on my path.
So I fled with steps uncertain On a thousand-year long race, But the bellying of the curtain Kept me always in one place, While the tumult rose and maddened To the roar of Earth on fire, Ere it ebbed and sank and saddened To a whisper tense as wire.
In tolerable stillness Rose one little, little star, And it chuckled at my illness, And it mocked me from afar; And its brethren came and eyed me, Called the Universe to aid, Till I lay, with naught to hide me, 'Neath the Scorn of All Things Made.
Dun and saffron, robed and splendid, Broke the solemn, pitying Day, And I knew my pains were ended, And I turned and tried to pray; But my speech was shattered wholly, And I wept as children weep, Till the dawn-wind, softly, slowly, Brought to burning eyelids sleep.
# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/Anchor Song

ANCHOR SONG
1893
HEH! Walk her round. Heave, ah, heave her short again! Over, snatch her over, there, and hold her on the pawl. Loose all sail, and brace your yards back and full— Ready jib to pay her off and heave short all!
Well, ah, fare you well; we can stay no more with you, my love— Down, set down your liquor and your girl from off your knee; For the wind has come to say: "You must take me while you may, If you'd go to Mother Carey (Walk her down to Mother Carey!), Oh, we're bound to Mother Carey where she feeds her chicks at sea!"
Heh! Walk her round. Break, ah, break it out o' that! Break our starboard-bower out, apeak, awash, and clear! Port—port she casts, with the harbour-mud beneath her foot, And that's the last o' bottom we shall see this year!
​Well, ah, fare you well, for we've got to take her out again— Take her out in ballast, riding light and cargo-free. And it's time to clear and quit When the hawser grips the bitt, So we'll pay you with the foresheet and a promise from the sea!
Heh! Tally on. Aft and walk away with her! Handsome to the cathead, now; O tally on the fall! Stop, seize and fish, and easy on the davit-guy. Up, well up the fluke of her, and inboard haul!
Well, ah, fare you well, for the Channel wind's took hold of us, Choking down our voices as we snatch the gaskets free. And it's blowing up for night, And she's dropping light on light, And she's snorting as she's snatching for a breath of open sea!
Wheel, full and by; but she'll smell her road alone to-night. Sick she is and harbour-sick—oh, sick to clear the land! Roll down to Brest with the old Red Ensign over us— Carry on and thrash her out with all she'll stand!
Well, ah, fare you well, and it's Ushant slams the door on us, Whirling like a windmill through the dirty scud to lee: Till the last, last flicker goes From the tumbling water-rows, And we're off to Mother Carey (Walk her down to Mother Carey!), Oh, we're bound for Mother Carey where she feeds her chicks at sea!
# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/In the Matter of One Compass

IN THE MATTER OF ONE COMPASS
1892
WHEN, foot to wheel and back to wind, The helmsman dare not look behind, But hears beyond his compass-light, The blind bow thunder through the night, And, like a harpstring ere it snaps, The rigging sing beneath the caps; Above the shriek of storm in sail Or rattle of the blocks blown free, Set for the peace beyond the gale, This song the Needle sings the Sea:
Oh, drunken Wave! Oh, driving Cloud! Rage of the Deep and sterile Rain, By Love upheld, by God allowed, We go, but we return again!
When leagued about the 'wildered boat The rainbow Jellies fill and float, And, lilting where the laver lingers, The Starfish trips on all her fingers; Where, 'neath his myriad spines ashock, The Sea-egg ripples down the rock, An orange wonder dimly guessed From darkness where the Cuttles rest, Moored o'er the darker deeps that hide The blind white Sea-snake and his bride, Who, drowsing, nose the long-lost Ships Let down through darkness to their lips— Safe-swung above the glassy death, Hear what the constant Needle saith:
​Oh, lisping Reef! Oh, listless Cloud, In slumber on a pulseless main! By Love upheld, by God allowed, We go, but we return again!
E'en so through Tropic and through Trade, Awed by the shadow of new skies, As we shall watch old planets fade And mark the stranger stars arise, So, surely, back through Sun and Cloud, So, surely, from the outward main By Love recalled, by God allowed, Shall we return—return again! Yea, we return—return again!
# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/Cuckoo Song

Cuckoo Song
(Spring begins in Southern England on the 14th April, on which date the Old Woman lets the Cuckoo out of her basket at Heathfield Fair—locally known as Heffle Cuckoo Fair.)
Tell it to the locked-up trees, Cuckoo, bring your song here! Warrant, Act and Summons, please, For Spring to pass along here! Tell old Winter, if he doubt, Tell him squat and square—a! Old Woman! Old Woman! Old Woman's let the Cuckoo out At Heffle Cuckoo Fair—a!
March has searched and April tried— 'Tisn't long to May now. Not so far to Whitsuntide And Cuckoo's come to stay now! ​Hear the valiant fellow shout Down the orchard bare—a! Old Woman! Old Woman! Old Woman's let the Cuckoo out At Heffle Cuckoo Fair—a!
When your heart is young and gay And the season rules it— Work your works and play your play 'Fore the Autumn cools it! Kiss you turn and turn-about, But my lad, beware—a! Old Woman! Old Woman! Old Woman's let the Cuckoo out At Heffle Cuckoo Fair—a!

'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free 'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be,
And when we find ourselves in the place just right, 'Twill be in the valley of love and delight.
When true simplicity is gained, To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed,
To turn, turn will be our delight, Till by turning, turning we come 'round right.

# Simplified Grammar of the Hungarian Language/Accidence

ACCIDENCE.
The parts of speech are the same as in other languages—viz., Nouns, Verbs, and Particles.
Of these the nouns (substantive, adjective, numeral pronoun) and verbs undergo certain modifications in order to express the various accidental circumstances of number, case, person, time, and place. These modifications are called inflections; and the defining particles joined to the words are called suffixes.
Particles are not inflected, but are used to define the noun or verb.
# Simplified Grammar of the Hungarian Language/Conjunctions

CONJUNCTIONS.
A conjunction is a part of speech that joins together words or sentences; as, anyám és atyám, my father and my mother.
They are:—
1. Copulative: és (abbrev. 's), and; is, also; meg, and; pedig, but, yet; mégis, still, and yet; ismét, again; hogy, that; sem, neither.
2. Disjunctive: vagy, or. Here are to be mentioned which are repeated or united in the same clause; as, vagy—vagy, either—or; akár—akár, whether—or; sem—sem, neither—nor.
3. Opposing: de, hanem, but; ámde, though; egyébiránt, besides; különben, else.
4. Explanative: azaz, that is; vagyis, or.
5. Causal: mivel, mert, because; minthogy, since, as, because.
6. Conclusive: hát, tehát, azért, therefore.
7. Concessive: bár, ámbár, habár, noha, jóllehet, although (granted that it is so).
8. Exceptive: csak, csakis, csupán, mindazáltal, nevertheless, in spite of that.
9. Conditional: ha, hogyha, hacsak, if.
10. Emphatic: sőt, inkább, sőtmég. These have no corresponding form in English, but are construed thus: sőt szeretni fogom, on the contrary, I will like it.
11. Locative: ott-hol, there-where; ahonnan, whence.
12. Final: hát, tehát, therefore; egyébiránt, otherwise, although; elvégre, utoljára, concluding, at last, finally.
# Simplified Grammar of the Hungarian Language/Gender

GENDER.
The Hungarian has no grammatical gender. Names applying to male persons are masculine, and those of females feminine.
To names or titles of male persons the ending -né is affixed to denote the wife of that person: as, Deákné, the wife of Deák; szinészné, the wife of an actor. But if she herself were an actress it would be szinész ( = actor or actress). In such cases often the word nő ( = woman) is joined to it, to denote that the person spoken of is a woman; e.g., szinésznő, an actress.
The gender of animals is expressed by putting him ( = male), or nőstény = (female), before the respective name; as—
| him farkas, | a he-wolf. |
| nőstény farkas, | a she-wolf. |
But these apply of course, only to animals.

The Saskatchewan Herald was established by Patrick Gammie Laurie in 1878 at Battleford, Canada. It was the first newspaper in todays Canadian Province of Saskatchewan. Laurie remained main editor until his death in 1903, which also meant the end of the newspaper. The point of view is that of the Anglo-Canadian settlers of the time and Laurie himself was even compared to these a radical beeing strongly related to the so called Canadian Party and befriended to its founder John Christian Schultz.
