# The Works of the Rev. Jonathan Swift/Volume 8/On a Printer's Being Sent to Newgate

ON A PRINTER'S BEING SENT TO NEWGATE.
BETTER we all were in our graves, Than live in slavery to slaves; Worse than the anarchy at sea, Where fishes on each other prey; Where every trout can make as high rants O'er his inferiours, as our tyrants; And swagger while the coast is clear: But, should a lordly pike appear, Away you see the varlet scud, Or hide his coward snout in mud. Thus, if a gudgeon meet a roach, He dare not venture to approach; Yet still has impudence to rise, And, like Domitian, leap at flies.

ON THE IRISH CLUB.
YEe paltry underlings of state, Ye senators, who love to prate; Ye rascals of inferiour note, Who for a dinner sell a vote; Ye pack of pensionary peers, Whose fingers itch for poets' ears; Ye bishops, far remov'd from saints, Why all this rage? Why these complaints? ​Why against printers all this noise? This summoning of blackguard boys? Why so sagacious in your guesses? Your effs, and tees, and arrs, and esses? Take my advice; to make you safe, I know a shorter way be half. The point is plain; remove the cause; Defend your liberties and laws. Be sometimes to your country true, Have once the public good in view: Bravely despise champaign at court, And choose to dine at home with port: Let prelates, by their good behaviour, Convince us they believe a Saviour; Nor sell what they so dearly bought, This country, now their own, for nought. Ne'er did a true satirick muse Virtue or Innocence abuse; And 'tis against poetick rules To rail at men, by nature fools: But * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

ON THE
ARCHBISHOP OF CASHEL, AND BETTESWORTH.
DEAR Dick, pr'ythee tell by what passion you move? The world is in doubt, whether hatred or love; And, while at good Cashel you rail with such spite, They shrewdly suspect it is all but a bite. You certainly know, though so loudly you vapour, His spite cannot wound, who attempted the Drapier. Then, prithee, reflect, take a word of advice; And, as your old wont is, change sides in a trice: On his virtues hold forth; 'tis the very best way; And say of the man what all honest men say. But if, still obdurate, your anger remains, If still your foul bosom more rancour contains; ​Say then more than they; nay, lavishly flatter, 'Tis your gross panegyrlcks alone can bespatter: For thine, my dear Dick, give me leave to speak plain, Like very foul mops, dirty more than they clean.
# The Works of the Rev. Jonathan Swift/Volume 8/On the Words Brother Protestants and Fellow Christians Used

ON THE WORDS
BROTHER PROTESTANTS,
AND
FELLOW CHRISTIANS,
So familiarly used by the advocates for the repeal of the Test Act in Ireland, 1733.
AN inundation, says the fable, O'erflow'd a farmer's barn and stable; Whole ricks of hay and stacks of corn Were down the sudden current born; While things of heterogeneous kind Together float with tide and wind. The generous wheat forgot its pride, And sail'd with litter side by side; Uniting all, to show their amity, As in a general calamity. A ball of new-dropp'd horse's dung, Mingling with apples in the throng, Said to the pippin plump and prim, "See, brother, how we apples swim." Thus Lamb, renown'd for cutting corns, An offer'd fee from Radcliff scorns, "Not for the world — we doctors, brother, Must take no fees of one another." Thus to a dean some curate sloven Subscribes, "Dear sir, your brother loving." Thus all the footmen, shoeboys, porters, About St. James's, cry, "We courtiers." Thus Horace in the house will prate, "Sir, we the ministers of state." ​Thus at the bar the booby Bettesworth, Though half a crown o'erpays his sweat's worth, Who knows in law nor text nor margent, Calls Singleton his brother sergeant. And thus fanatick saints, though neither in Doctrine nor discipline our brethren, Are brother protestants and Christians, As much as Hebrews and Philistines: But in no other sense, than nature Has made a rat our fellow-creature. Lice from your body suck their food; But is a louse your flesh and blood? Though born of human filth and sweat, it As well may say man did beget it. And maggots in your nose and chin As well may claim you for their kin. Yet criticks may object, why not? Since lice are brethren to a Scot: Which made our swarm of sects determine Employments for their brother vermin. But be they English, Irish, Scottish, What protestant can be so sottish, While o'er the church these clouds are gathering, To call a swarm of lice his brethren? As Moses, by divine advice, In Egypt turn'd the dust to lice; And as our sects, by all descriptions, Have hearts more harden'd than Egyptians; As from the trodden dust they spring, And, turn'd to lice, infest the king: For pity's sake, it would be just, A rod should turn them back to dust. Let folks in high or holy stations Be proud of owning such relations; ​Let courtiers hug them in their bosom, As if they were afraid to lose 'em: While I, with humble Job, had rather Say to corruption — "Thou'rt my father." For he that has so little wit To nourish vermin, may be bit.
# The Younger Edda (tr. Anderson)/The Fooling of Gylfe

Gylfaginning, or the Tricking of Gylfi, is the first part of Snorri Sturluson's Prose Edda. The Gylfaginning deals with the creation and destruction of the world of the Norse gods, and many other aspects of Norse mythology. The second part of the Prose Edda is called the Skáldskaparmál and the third Háttatal.
The Gylfaginning deals with king Gylfi's encounters with the Æsir, and his disguised journey as Gangleri to Asgard. There Gylfi is ostensibly exposed to the glories of Asgard and its inhabitants. The whole of this narrative is metaphysical since the Æsir, who according to Snorri, have foreknowledge, trick him into a belief in the arcane complexities of the Norse pantheon, ultimately leaving him standing on empty ground. It can be argued that Snorri used this narrative device as a means of being able to safely document a vanishing and largely oral tradition within a Christian context.

CHAPTER XI.
THE GIANTESS GERD AND SKIRNER'S JOURNEY.
38. Gymer hight a man whose wife was Orboda, of the race of mountain giants. Their daughter was Gerd, the fairest of all women. One day when Frey had gone into Hlidskjalf, and was looking out upon all the worlds, he saw toward the north a hamlet wherein was a large and beautiful house. To this house went a woman, and when she raised her hands to open the door, both the sky and the sea glistened therefrom, and she made all the world bright. As a punishment for his audacity in seating himself in that holy seat, Frey went away full of grief. When he came home, he neither spake, slept, nor drank, and no one dared speak to him. Then Njord sent for Skirner, Frey's servant, bade him go to Frey and ask him with whom he was so angry, since he would speak to nobody. Skirner said that he would go, though he was loth to do so, as it was probable that he would get evil words in reply. When he came to Frey and asked him why he was so sad that he would not ​talk, Frey answered that he had seen a beautiful woman, and for her sake he had become so filled with grief, that he could not live any longer if he could not get her. And now you must go he added, and ask her hand for me and bring her home to me, whether it be with or without the consent of her father. I will reward you well for your trouble. Skirner answered saying that he would go on this errand, but Frey must give him his sword, that was so excellent that it wielded itself in fight. Frey made no objection to this and gave him the sword. Skirner went on his journey, courted Gerd for him, and got the promise of her that she nine nights thereafter should come to Bar-Isle and there have her wedding with Frey. When Skirner came back and gave an account of his journey, Frey said:
Long is one night, Long are two nights, How can I hold out three? Oft to me one month Seemed less Than this half night of love.
This is the reason why Frey was unarmed when he fought with Bele, and slew him with a hart's horn. Then said Ganglere: It is a great wonder that such a lord as Frey would give away his sword, when he did not have another as good. ​A great loss it was to him when he fought with Bele; and this I know, forsooth, that he must have repented of that gift. Har answered: Of no great account was his meeting with Bele. Frey could have slain him with his hand. But the time will come when he will find himself in a worse plight for not having his sword, and that will be when the sons of Muspel sally forth to the fight.

# The Younger Edda (tr. Anderson)/The Fooling of Gylfe/Afterword

AFTERWORD
TO THE FOOLING OF GYLFE.
The asas now sat down to talk, and held their counsel, and remembered all the tales that were told to Gylfe. They gave the very same names that had been named before to the men and places that were there. This they did for the reason that, when a long time has elapsed, men should not doubt that those asas of whom these tales were now told and those to whom the same names were given were all identical. There was one who is called Thor, and he is Asa-Thor, the old. He is Oku-Thor, and to him are ascribed the great deeds done by Hektor in Troy. But men think that the Turks have told of Ulysses, and have called him Loke, for the Turks were his greatest enemies.

CHAPTER I
GEFJUN'S PLOWING.
1. King Gylfe ruled the lands that are now called Svithjod (Sweden). Of him it is said that he gave to a wayfaring woman, as a reward for the entertainment she had afforded him by her story-telling, a plow-land in his realm, as large as four oxen could plow it in a day and a night. But this woman was of the asa-race; her name was Gefjun. She took from the north, from Jotunheim, four oxen, which were the sons of a giant and her, and set them before the plow. Then went the plow so hard and deep that it tore up the land, and the oxen drew it westward into the sea, until it stood still in a sound. There Gefjun set the land, gave it a name and called it Seeland. And where the land had been taken away became afterward a sea, which in Sweden is now called Logrinn (the Lake, the Malar Lake in Sweden). And in the Malar Lake the bays cor- ​respond to the capes in Seeland. Thus says Brage, the old skald:
Gefjun glad
Drew from Gylfe
The excellent land,
Denmark's increase,
So that it reeked
From the running beasts.
Four heads and eight eyes
Bore the oxen
As they went before the wide
Robbed land of the grassy isle.

The Times, Wednesday, Oct 30, 1872; Issue 27521; pg. 7; col B — The Late Sir Alexander Duff-Gordon.
Layout 2 The late Sir Alexander Duff-Gordon.—Our obituary yesterday contained the name of a gentleman well-known in London society — Sir Alexander Cornewall Duff-Gordon, one of the Commissioners of Inland Revenue. He was the eldest son of the late Sir William Duff-Gordon, a cadet of the House of Aberdeen. His mother was a daughter of the late Sir George Cornewall, M.P. He was born in the year 1811, and succeeded to his father's title in 1823. He was for many years a clerk in the Treasury, and acted as private secretary to at least one Chancellor of the Exchequer. He became a senior clerk in the Treasury in 1854, and a Commissioner of Inland Revenue in 1856; he was also Assistant Gentleman Usher of the Privy Chamber to Her Majesty. Lady Duff-Gordon herself will be better remembered by our readers under her maiden name Miss Lucy Austin, as the author of several clever and entertaining works, including The French in Algiers, and as the translator of Moltke's Russian Campaign on the Danube, and of Rankes' Ferdinand and Maximilian. The title passes to the late baronet's only son Maurice, who was born in the year 1849.

OBITUARY
Mr. Kirkman D. Hodgson, late member for Bristol in the Liberal interest, died at his seat, Ash-grove, Sevenoaks, on Thursday night. He retired from the representation about 18 months ago owing to illness. Mr. Hodgson was first elected for Bristol in 1870, and was returned again at the head of the poll at the general election of 1874. His health first began to fail in the autumn of 1877, and when it became only too evident that he would not be able to take his seat in the House of Commons he placed his resignation in the hands of the Liberal committee. This was in the summer of 1878, but the committee kept the resignation back until the differences in the Liberal party were healed. At last, in the short winter Session of 1878, Mr. Hodgson accepted the Chiltern Hundreds, and in the middle of December last Mr. Fry was elected to his place, as the result of a contest with Sir I. B. Guest. Mr. Hodgson sat for Bridport from March, 1857, to November 1868. The deceased gentleman was 65 years of age.

The late Lord Zouche.—Our obituary column yesterday contained the name of a nobleman, Lord Zouche, who was better known by his former designation as the Hon. Robert Curzon and as the author of The Monasteries of the Levant. Lord Zouche, who died on Saturday at Parham-park, his seat near Petsworth, Sussex, at the age of 63, was the elder son of the late Harriet Anne (in her own right) Baroness Zouche, or De la Zouche, by the Hon. Robert Curzon, youngest cousin of the first Viscount Curzon. He was born in London in March, 1810, and was educated at the Charter-house under Dr. Russell, and subsequently at Christ Church, Oxford. Entering the diplomatic service, he became an Attaché at Constantinople, and was employed as joint Commissioner on behalf of this country at the Conference of Erzereum. He acted also for some time as Private Secretary to our Ambassador at the Porte, Lord Stratford de Redcliffe, through whose influence in Turkey and Greece he obtained access to the various religious houses, convents, and monasteries in the districts bordering on the Levant—houses which he so charmingly described in the volume above-mentioned, and from which he was enabled to bring to Europe many curious and valuable treasures. He was also the author of another work entitled Armenia, or a Residence at Erzeroum. He sat in the unreformed House of Commons for a short time in 1831, as M.P for the borough of Clitheroe, and succeeded to the family title and estates on his "mother's death," in The Times (1870)

# The Wounded Knee editorial

Published January 3, 1891 in the Aberdeen Saturday Pioneer in the aftermath of the Wounded Knee Massacre. The horizontal line above the last line normally indicates a change in topic. As the two sections are related, both are included here. May be found at: Northern State University
The peculiar policy of the government in employing so weak and vacillating a person as General Miles to look after the uneasy Indians, has resulted in a terrible loss of blood to our soldiers, and a battle which, at its best, is a disgrace to the war department. There has been plenty of time for prompt and decisive measures, the employment of which would have prevented this disaster.
The Pioneer has before declared that our only safety depends upon the total extirmination [sic] of the Indians. Having wronged them for centuries we had better, in order to protect our civilization, follow it up by one more wrong and wipe these untamed and untamable creatures from the face of the earth. In this lies future safety for our settlers and the soldiers who are under incompetent commands. Otherwise, we may expect future years to be as full of trouble with the redskins as those have been in the past.
An eastern contemporary, with a grain of wisdom in its wit, says that "when the whites win a fight, it is a victory, and when the Indians win it, it is a massacre."
