# Tales from the Arabic/Story of the Prisoner and How God Gave Him Relief

Second-level story, contained in The Ten Viziers; or the History of King Azadbekht and His Son
STORY OF THE PRISONER AND HOW GOD GAVE HIM RELIEF.
There was once a king of the kings, who had a high palace, overlooking a prison of his, and he used to hear in the night one saying, ‘O Ever-present Deliverer, O Thou whose relief is nigh, relieve Thou me!’ One day ​the king waxed wroth and said, “Yonder fool looketh for relief from [the consequences of] his crime.’ Then said he to his officers, ‘Who is in yonder prison?’ And they answered, ‘Folk upon whom blood hath been found.’ So the king bade bring the man in question before him and said to him, ‘O fool, little of wit, how shall thou be delivered from this prison, seeing that thine offence is great?’ Then he committed him to a company of his guards and said to them, ‘Take this fellow and crucify him without the city.’
Now it was the night-season. So the soldiers carried him without the city, thinking to crucify him, when, behold, there came out upon them thieves and fell in on them with swords and [other] weapons. Thereupon the guards left him whom they purposed to put to death [and took to flight], whilst the man who was going to slaughter fled forth at a venture and plunging into the desert, knew not whither he went before he found himself in a thicket and there came out upon him a lion of frightful aspect, which snatched him up and set him under him. Then he went up to a tree and tearing it up by the roots, covered the man therewith and made off into the thicket, in quest of the lioness.
As for the man, he committed his affair to God the Most High, relying upon Him for deliverance, and said in himself, ‘What is this affair?’ Then he did away the leaves from himself and rising, saw great plenty of men’s bones there, of those whom the lion had devoured. He ​looked again and saw a heap of gold lying alongside a girdle; whereat he marvelled and gathering up the gold in his skirts, went forth of the thicket and fled in affright at hazard, turning neither to the right nor to the left, in his fear of the lion; till he came to a village and cast himself down, as he were dead. He lay there till the day appeared and he was rested from his fatigue, when he arose and burying the gold, entered the village. Thus God gave him relief and he came by the gold.”

# Tales from the Arabic/Story of the Three Men and Our Lord Jesus

Second-level story, contained in King Shah Bekht and His Vizier Er Rehwan. Contains The Disciple’s Story
STORY OF THE THREE MEN AND OUR LORD JESUS.
Three men once went out in quest of riches and came upon a block of gold, weighing a hundred pounds. When they saw it, they took it up on their shoulders and fared on with it, till they drew near a certain city, when one of them said, ‘Let us sit in the mosque, whilst one of us goes and buys us what we may eat.’ So they sat down in the mosque and one of them arose and entered the city. When he came therein, his soul prompted him to play his fellows false and get the gold for himself alone. So he bought food and poisoned it; but, when he returned to his comrades, they fell upon him and slew him, so they might enjoy the gold without him. Then they ate of the [poisoned] food and died, and the gold abode cast down over against them.
Presently, Jesus, son of Mary (on whom be peace!) passed by and seeing this, besought God the Most High for tidings of their case; so He told him what had betided them, whereat great was his wonderment and he related to ​his disciples what he had seen. Quoth one of them, ‘O Spirit of God, nought resembleth this but my own story.’ ‘How so?’ asked Jesus, and the other said,
The Disciple’s Story.
[story resumed]
​Quoth Jesus (on whom be peace!), ‘Had these dealt prudently, they had taken thought for themselves; but they neglected the issues of events; for that whoso acteth ​prudently is safe and conquereth, and whoso neglecteth precaution perisheth and repenteth.’

# Supplement to the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Editions of the Encyclopædia Britannica/Dissertation First/Part 1

DISSERTATION FIRST.
PART I.
In the following Historical and Critical Sketches, it has been judged proper by the different writers, to confine their views entirely to the period which has elapsed since the revival of letters. To have extended their retrospects to the ancient world would have crowded too great a multiplicity of objects into the limited canvas on which they had to work. For my own part, I might perhaps, with still greater propriety, have confined myself exclusively to the two last centuries; as the Sciences of which I am to treat present but little matter for useful remark, prior to the time of Lord Bacon. I shall make no apology, however, for devoting, in the first place, a few pages to some observations of a more general nature; and to some scanty gleanings of literary detail, bearing more or less directly on my principal design.
On this occasion, as well as in the sequel of my Discourse, I shall avoid, as far as is consistent with distinctness and perspicuity, the minuteness of the mere bibliographer; and, instead of attempting to amuse my readers with a series of critical epigrams, or to dazzle them with a rapid succession of evanescent portraits, shall study to fix their attention on those great lights of the world by whom the torch of science has been successively seized and transmitted. It is, in fact, such leading characters alone which furnish matter ​for philosophical history. To enumerate the names and the labours of obscure or even secondary authors (whatever amusement it might afford to men of curious erudition), would contribute but little to illustrate the origin and filiation of consecutive systems, or the gradual developement and progress of the human mind.

This seminal work of literary criticism by the English writer D. H. Lawrence is startling, even revolutionary, for several reasons. The prose style is extremely informal, yet filled with penetrating psychological and moral insights. The themes running through Lawrence's criticism are his concern with the primacy of the individual spirit and his belief in the importance of love, for better or for worse, as a force in human affairs.Warning: template has been deprecated.

An Act To amend the Public Health Service Act to authorize increased Federal funding for the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network.
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it is a work of the United States federal government (see 17 U.S.C. 105).
Public domainPublic domainfalsefalse
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

### SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the `Stephanie Tubbs Jones Organ Transplant Authorization Act of 2008'.

### SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) The National Organ Transplant Act of 1984 amended the Public Health Service Act to require the Secretary of Health and Human Services to provide for, by contract with a private nonprofit entity, the establishment and operation of an Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network.
       (2) The Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network represents a unique public-private organization that requires each party to contribute a certain amount of funding to the network's operation.
       (3) The National Organ Transplant Act of 1984 provided a statutory annual authorization of $2,000,000 for such purpose with remaining costs to be paid by the private sector contractor.
       (4) In 1984, the annual total operating cost of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network was $5,000,000, but in 2007 such annual cost exceeded $27,000,000.
       (5) The original authorization amount for the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network has never been increased since the enactment of the National Organ Transplant Act of 1984, resulting in a greatly increased cost burden on the private sector contractor.
       (6) Much of the increased costs of operation of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network have resulted from additional duties and responsibilities assigned to the private sector contractor by Federal regulations and Secretarial directives.

### SEC. 3. INCREASED FUNDING FOR THE ORGAN PROCUREMENT AND TRANSPLANTATION NETWORK.

    Section 372(a) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 274(a)) is amended by striking '$2,000,000' and inserting '$7,000,000'.

# The American Cyclopædia (1879)/Andros, Edmund

Edition of 1879. See also Edmund Andros on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
ANDROS, Sir Edmund, an English colonial governor, born in London, Dec. 6, 1637, died there, Feb. 24, 1714. He was brought up at court, his father being an officer of the royal household. He was a major in Prince Rupert's dragoons, and in 1674 succeeded his father as bailiff of Guernsey. In the same year he was commissioned governor of New York, and received its surrender by the Dutch after their brief repossession of it. He administered its affairs in the interest of the duke of York, was involved in controversies with the surrounding colonies and with the French in Canada by his extensive claims to jurisdic- tion, and in 1680 seized the government of East Jersey, deposing Philip Carteret. He was recalled to England in 1681, cleared himself of several charges preferred against him, and retired to Guernsey. New England having been consolidated, Andros was appointed its governor general in 1686, under instructions which, while establishing religious toleration, forbade all printing, and authorized him to appoint and remove his own council, and with their consent to enact laws, levy taxes, and control the militia. Carrying out these instructions in a despotic manner, his government soon became very odious to the colonists. Connecticut having held out against him, he appeared in the council chamber at Hartford with an armed guard in October, 1687, and demanded the surrender of its charter, which is said to have been prevented by its sudden removal and concealment in a hollow tree afterward celebrated as the charter oak. Contemporary documents, however, seem to prove that no such event occurred, that Andros really possessed himself of the original charter, and that a duplicate had been concealed some time previously. (See Brodhead's “History of New
York,” vol. ii., pp. 472-'3.) In 1688 New York and New Jersey were added to his jurisdiction, and Francis Nicholson was appointed lieutenant governor there. On the news of the revolution in England, the people of Boston imprisoned Andros and several of his officers, April 18, 1689, and the New England colonies restored their former governments, while Jacob Leisler usurped authority in New York. (See Leisler.) In July he was sent to England by order of King William, with a committee of accusers, but was acquitted without a formal trial. In 1692 he was made governor of Virginia, where he made himself comparatively popular, but was removed in 1698 through the influence of Commissary Blair. In 1704-'6 he was governor of Guernsey. In 1691 Andros published a narrative of his proceedings in New England, which was republished in 1773.

ANKWITZ, Mikolaj, count, a Polish politician, executed in 1794. He was ambassador at Copenhagen, and deputy to the diet from Cracow. In the diet of Grodno, which was forced to sanction the second dismemberment of Poland, he played a prominent part; and when the treaty consummating it was concluded with Russia, he was deputed to sign it on behalf of Poland, July 23, 1793. Immediately afterward a salary of $13,000 was conferred upon Ankwitz by the Russian government, with the appointment of president of the council. When these facts became known, the rage of the people knew no bounds. On April 18, 1794, soon after the breaking out of the revolution of which Kosciuszko became the leader, he was accused of treason, and his correspondence was seized, which established his guilt. He was hanged, and buried in the felons' graveyard.

After her husband's death in 1758 she took the reins of government, and held them so well that Saxe-Weimar was able speedily to recover from the effects of the seven years' war, and escaped the famine of 1773. In 1775 she resigned the administration to her son, and devoted herself to the cultivation of literature. For 30 years she lived in the society of Wieland, Goethe, Herder, Schiller, and other men of eminence.

ANIMÉ (Fr., animated), a resin supposed to be derived from the hymenæa courbaril of South
America. It exudes from wounds in the bark, and collects between the principal roots. This resin is soft and sticky, and melts easily, diffusing white fumes and a very pleasant odor. Insects are generally entrapped in such numbers in it, that it is said to well merit its name of animated. The Brazilians use it internally in diseases of the lungs. It was formerly employed in the composition of ointments and plasters, but at present its only use is for varnishes and incense.

She wrote two dramas under the name of Amalie Herter (Dresden, 1829-'30). Among her subsequent productions, which are noted for a love of humanity and virtue, her comedies Der Onkel and Die Fürstenbraut became very popular. The latter was performed in Paris under the title Une femme charmante (1840). Others of her plays were also adapted to the French stage. A complete edition of her dramatic works was published in Dresden, for the benefit of the women's association, under the title of Originalbeiträge zur deutschen Schaubühne (6 vols., 1837-'42). A 3d edition of the 1st volume appeared in 1858, and a French version of it (Comédies) at Paris in 1841.

ANISE SEED, the fruit of the pimpinella anisum, a native of Europe and Africa. It is extensively employed as a carminative medicine, and for the purpose of flavoring liqueurs or medicines. It yields an aromatic oil both by distillation and expression, which is used for the same purposes as the seed, and is also a favorite article with vermin-killers, who employ it to disguise the scent of poisonous baits. The anise-seed cordial of the shops is a compound of alcohol, anise seed, and angelica. The plant is cultivated in Malta and Spain, and grows spontaneously in Egypt and the islands of the Grecian Archipelago, especially Scio. The genus pimpinella belongs to the umbelliferous tribes of plants inhabiting meadows and mountains in Europe and Africa.
