# John Trumbull

To the memory of the Hon. John Trumbull, Author of M'Fingal, and other poems; a native of Connecticut: who died at Detroit, Michigan: a tribute to the memory of one who was no less the pride of his native State than of his Country; the patriotic bard, who having left among his native hills the thrilling Harp which had animated every camp, and enlivened every cottage, till its notes resounded across the Atlantic.
This was he Whose shaft of wit had touch'd the epic strain With poignant power. The Father of the Harp In his own native vales. He seems to muse As if those loved retreats did spread themselves Again before his eye. The sighing wind Through the long branches of those ancient trees When first his boyhood lisp'd the love of Song Doth lull his soul. There brighter visions gleam, A sound of music rises. 'Tis thy voice Connecticut As when by vernal rains Surcharged, it swells in tuneful murmurs round The vine-clad mansion where his children grew. But the hoarse clangor of yon mighty Lakes Holding high conflict with the winged Storm  Doth quell its melody.  And is it so That in the feebleness of four-score years Thou with unshrinking hand didst pitch thy tent Near the broad billows of the Michigan And mark in that far land young life start forth In beauty and in vigor and in power Where erst the Indian, and the Panther dwelt Sole lords. It was a bold emprize To change the robe of science and of mistrelsy Worn from thy cradle onward For the staff of the strong emigrant. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Master and friend; until this feeble lyre In silence moulders, till my heart forgets The thrill of gratitude, the love of song, The praise of knowledge, shall thine image dwell Bright with the beauty of benignant age  In my soul's temple-shrine!

# In the Forbidden Land/Preface

IN this book I have set down the record of a journey in Tibet undertaken by me during the spring, summer and autumn of 1897. It is illustrated partly from my photographs and partly from sketches made by me on the spot. Only as regards the torture scenes have I had to draw from memory, but it will be easily conceded that their impression must be vivid enough with me.
The map is made entirely from my surveys of an area of twelve thousand five hundred square miles in Tibet proper. In Chapter VI. the altitudes of such high peaks in India as Nanda Devi and others are taken from the Trigonometrical Survey, and so are the positions fixed by astronomical observations of the starting and terminating points of my surveys at the places where I entered and left Tibet.
In the orthography of geographical names I have adopted the course advised by the Royal Geographical Society—viz., to give the names their true sound as they are locally pronounced, and I have made no exception even for the grand and poetic "Himahlya" which is in English usually distorted into the unmusical and unromantic word "Himalayas."
I submit with all deference the following geographical results of my expedition:
The solution of the uncertainty regarding the division of the Mansarowar and Rakstal Lakes.
The ascent to so great an altitude as 22,000 feet, and the pictures of some of the great Himahlyan glaciers.
The visit to and the fixing of the position of the two principal sources of the Brahmaputra, never before reached by a European.
The fact that with only two men I was able to travel for so long in the most populated part of Tibet.
In addition to the above, I am glad to state that owing to the publicity which I gave on my return to the outrageous Tibetan abuses taking place on British soil, the Government of India at last, in the summer of 1898, notified the Tibetan authorities that they will no longer be permitted to collect Land Revenue from British subjects there. This fact gives me special satisfaction, because of the exceptional courtesy and kindness bestowed on me by our mountain tribesmen, the Shokas.
The Government Report of the official Investigation of my case, as well as other documents substantiating the details of my narrative, are printed in an appendix.

# In the Garden (Miles)

    I come to the garden alone,
    While the dew is still on the roses;
    And the voice I hear, falling on my ear,
    The Son of God discloses.
    Refrain:
    And he walks with me, and he talks with me,
    And he tells me I am his own,
    And the joy we share as we tarry there,
    None other has ever known.
    He speaks, and the sound of his voice
    Is so sweet the birds hush their singing;
    And the melody that he gave to me
    Within my heart is ringing.
    Refrain
    I'd stay in the garden with him
    Tho the night around me be falling;
    But he bids me go; thro' the voice of woe,
    His voice to me is calling.

Nightingales warbled without,   Within was weeping for thee: Shadows of three dead men   Walk'd in the walks with me,   Shadows of three dead men and   thou wast one of the three.
Nightingales sang in his woods:   The Master was far away: Nightingales warbled and sang   Of a passion that lasts but a day;   Still in the house in his coffin the   Prince of courtesy lay.
Two dead men have I known   In courtesy like to thee: Two dead men have I loved   With a love that ever will be:   Three dead men have I loved, and   thou art last of the three.

In the gloaming oh, my darling when the lights are dim and low And the quiet shadows falling softly come and softly go
When the trees are sobbing faintly with a gentle unknown woe Will you think of me and love me, as you did once long ago?
In the gloaming oh! my darling think not bitterly of me? Tho' I passed away in silence left you lonely, set you free
For my heart was crush'd with longing, what had been could never be It was best to leave you thus dear best for you and best for me
It was best to leave you thus .......... Best for you and best for me ......

I.—THE STORY OF ARION.
Arion, after travelling abroad, hires a vessel to take him home.
1.—Arion was a celebrated harper. He had lived for a long time at the court of Penander, king of the Corinthians. Then he wished to sail to Italy and Sicily. Having obtained great wealth there, he desired to return to Corinth, Therefore he set out from Tarentum, a city of Italy; there he had had hired a vessel belonging to (lit. of) some Corinthians.
The sailors farm a plan to rob and murder him.
2.—But the latter resolved to throw him into the sea; for they were desirous to get possession of his money. Then, indeed, Arion understood their plan. He sadly (lit sad) had recourse (lit. fled) to prayers. Having offered all his money to the sailors, he begged his life. But the sailors not being moved by the man's prayer threatened him at once with death (lit death to him).
Arion sings a beautiful song, and leaps overboard.
3.—Arion reduced to these extremities, stood on the stem, dressed in all his ornaments. Then he began to sing one of his songs. The sailors charmed by the sweet song retired to the middle of the ship from the stem. He, clad in all his ​ornaments, took his lyre and finished the song. When the song was finished, he threw himself into the sea. Then the sailors sailed to Corinth.
He is miraculously saved by a dolphin.
4.—But Arion, having been taken up by a dolphin on its back, was brought (to land) at Taenarum. Having landed, he proceeded to Corinth in the same dress. There he related the deeds of the sailors. But Periander was unwilling to believe him. Arion was therefore kept by him under a guard.
The wicked sailors are detected and punished, and Arion is rewarded.
5.—Meanwhile the sailors came to Corinth. They were questioned by Periander about Arion. All lied most disgracefully. Suddenly Arion appeared with the same dress (on). The astonished sailors confessed their crime. They were all slain by King Periander, and much money was given to Arion.

II.—THE HABITS OF THE MASSAGETAE.
6.—The Massagetae use both a dress and a way of living like those of the Scythians. They fight on horseback; they use the bow and spears. They use gold or copper for everything. For spears and for the points of their arrows they use copper; for head ornaments and belts round the loins, gold. Silver and iron are not found in their country ; but there is an immense quantity of copper and gold. Their relations kill the old men and beasts with them ; then having cooked their flesh, they feast. But they bury in the earth those that have died of disease. They sow no crops (lit. make no sowing): their food consists of cattle, fish, and milk. Alone of the gods they worship the Sun: to him they sacrifice horses.

# Journal of the Straits Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society/Volume 3/A Tiger's Wake

A TIGER'S WAKE.
[The following extract from the Diary of the Resident Officer at Langat describes the superstitious feelings of Malays, common among other orientals also, towards the Tiger.]
   "At 10 A. M. a great noise of rejoicing with drums and gongs approaching Jugra by the river was heard, and on my questioning the people, I was told Raja Yakob had managed to shoot a Jugra with a spring gun, behind Tiger hill, and was bringing it in state to the Sultan. I went over to the Sultan's at Raja Yakob's request, to see the attendants on the slaughter of a Tiger. The animal was supported by posts and fastened in an attidude as nearly as possible approching the living. Its mouth was forced open, its tongue allowed to droop on one side, and a small rattan attached to its upper jaw was passed over a pole held by a man behind. This finished, two swords were produced and placed crosswise, and a couple of Panglimas selected for the dance; the gongs and drums were beaten at quick time, the man holding the rattan attached to the tiger's head pulled it, moving the head up and down, and the two Panglimas, after making their obeisance to the Sultan rushed at the swords and holding them in their hands commenced a most wild and exciting dance. They spun around on one leg, waving their swords, then bounded forward and made a thrust at the tiger; moving back quickly with the point of the weapon facing the animal; they crawled along the ground and sprung over it uttering ​defiant yells, they cut and parried at supposed attacks, finally throwing down their weapon and taunting the dead beast by dancing before it unarmed. This done Tuas told me the carcase was at my disposal.
   "The death of this tiger now establishes the fact of the existence of tigers here, for asserting which I have been pretty frequently laughed at. However, this is not the Jugra pest, a brute whose death would be matter for general rejoicing, the one now destroyed being a tigress 8 feet long and 2 feet 8 inches high."
