### Introduction to Lessons 181 - 200

Our next few lessons make a special point of firming up your willingness to make your weak commitment strong; your scattered goals blend into one intent. You are not asked for total dedication all the time as yet. But you are asked to practice now in order to attain the sense of peace such unified commitment will bestow, if only intermittently. It is experiencing this that makes it sure that you will give your total willingness to following the way the course sets forth.
Our lessons now are geared specifically to widening horizons, and direct approaches to the special blocks that keep your vision narrow, and too limited to let you see the value of our goal. We are attempting now to lift these blocks, however briefly. Words alone can not convey the sense of liberation which their lifting brings. But the experience of freedom and of peace that comes as you give up your tight control of what you see speaks for itself. Your motivation will be so intensified that words become of little consequence. You will be sure of what you want, and what is valueless.
And so we start our journey beyond words by concentrating first on what impedes your progress still. Experience of what exists beyond defensiveness remains beyond achievement while it is denied. It may be there, but you cannot accept its presence. So we now attempt to go past all defenses for a little while each day. No more than this is asked, because no more than this is needed. It will be enough to guarantee the rest will come.
# A Course in Miracles/Workbook for Students/If I am bound, my Father is not free

If I am bound, my Father is not free.
If I accept that I am prisoner within a body, in a world in which all things that seem to live appear to die, then is my Father prisoner with me. And this do I believe, when I maintain the laws the world obeys must I obey; the frailties and the sins which I perceive are real, and cannot be escaped. If I am bound in any way, I do not know my Father nor my Self. And I am lost to all reality. For truth is free, and what is bound is not a part of truth.
Father, I ask for nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish thoughts about myself and my creation, and have brought a dream of fear into my mind. Today, I would not dream. I choose the way to You instead of madness and instead of fear. For truth is safe, and only love is sure.
# A Course in Miracles/Workbook for Students/In fearlessness and love I spend today

In fearlessness and love I spend today.
This day, my Father, would I spend with You, as You have chosen all my days should be. And what I will experience is not of time at all. The joy that comes to me is not of days nor hours, for it comes from Heaven to Your Son. This day will be Your sweet reminder to remember You, Your gracious calling to Your holy Son, the sign Your grace has come to me, and that it is Your Will I be set free today.
We spend this day together, you and I. And all the world joins with us in our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave salvation to us, and Who set us free. We are restored to peace and holiness. There is no room in us for fear today, for we have welcomed love into our hearts.
# A Course in Miracles/Workbook for Students/In me salvation's means and end are one

In me salvation's means and end are one.
In me, God's holy Son, are reconciled all parts of Heaven's plan to save the world. What could conflict, when all the parts have but one purpose and one aim? How could there be a single part that stands alone, or one of more or less importance than the rest? I am the means by which God's Son is saved, because salvation's purpose is to find the sinlessness that God has placed in me. I was created as the thing I seek. I am the goal the world is searching for. I am God's Son, His one eternal Love. I am salvation's means and end as well.
Let me today, my Father, take the role You offer me in Your request that I accept Atonement for myself. For thus does what is thereby reconciled in me become as surely reconciled to You.

# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Mocum

​MOCUM. A sin stained city mentioned but once in the Book of Mormon (III Nephi 9:7), and then in connection with its destruction at the time of the crucifixion of the Savior. It sank into the earth, and waters came up in its place, that the wickedness and abominations of its inhabitants might be hidden from the sight of Heaven, and that the blood of the prophets and saints might not come up any more before the Lord against them. No clue is given to the region where Mocum was situated.
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Morianton

​MORIANTON. The founder of the city called by his name, and the leader of its citizens. Morianton appears to have been a wicked passionate, self-willed, avaricious man, and the first notice we have of him (B. C. 68), grows out of a contention that arose between his people and those of the neighboring city of Lehi. Morianton claimed for his people some of the land lying between the two cities, then in possession of the Lehites, and so determined was he to carry his point, that he neglected all peaceable methods of settling the difficulty, and appealed to ​the dread arbitrament of the sword. The people of Lehi, whose cause was just, fled to Moroni, the Nephite commander-in-chief, and asked his help. When Morianton learned of this move, knowing that he was in the wrong, and fearing the strength of Moroni, he persuaded his people to flee to the land northward. He would probably have carried his plan into effect, had it not been for his ungovernable temper. In a fit of passion he cruelly beat one of his maid servants, who ran away to the camp of Moroni and told the latter of the secret intentions of Morianton and his people. Such an exodus was very repugnant to Moroni's feelings and judgment. He feared to have a hostile people in the north, who, in times of war with the Lamanites, could harass the Nephite rear. He therefore detailed Teancum, with an army corps, to head the people of Morianton, and stop their flight northward. This the latter was not able to accomplish until they had reached the borders of Desolation, at the Isthmus of Panama. Here a battle took place, for so great was the power of Morianton over his people, that, by his flattery and wickedness, he filled them with the spirit of stubbornness to such an extent that they forcibly resisted the armies of the Commonwealth. In the battle that ensued, their leader was slain by Teancum, his hosts defeated, and those not slain were taken prisoners and carried back to the camp of Moroni. Here the difficulties were investigated and settled amicably. Upon their covenanting to keep the peace, they were restored to their lands, and a union was effected between them and the citizens of Lehi, who also returned to their possessions.
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Morianton (II)

​MORIANTON. A king of the Jaredites. It appears that Riplakish, a monarch of that race, became so obnoxious to his people on account of his tyranny and abominations, that they rose in rebellion, slew him and drove his descendants out ​of the land. After many years, one of these descendants, named Morianton, gathered an army of outcasts and invaded the Jaredite country. The war that followed was an exceedingly severe one and lasted a number of years. One by one the cities of the Jaredites fell into the hands of Morianton, until he had made himself master of the entire country. When established in power, he conciliated the people by lightening their burdens, so that they anointed him king. During his mild though energetic reign the people were greatly prospered, many new cities were built, and the nation grew exceedingly rich. He lived to a very great age, and when too old to hold the reins of government, he abdicated in favor of his son Kim, Morianton surviving this action eight years. His character is thus summarized in the Book of Ether: "he did do justice unto the people, but not unto himself, because of his many whoredoms; wherefore he was cut off from the presence of the Lord."
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Mormon

​MORMON. The father of Mormon, and grandfather of Moroni. He appears to have resided in the northern continent until A. C. 322, when he took his son, Mormon, into the land southward. Nothing is known of his private life, and all that we are told of him is that he was a descendant of Nephi, (Mormon, 1:5); but judging from the great virtue exhibited by the younger Mormon in his boyhood, we are led to believe that he was a man who trained his children in the fear of the Lord, and taught them the truths of the gospel
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Moab

​MOAB. The Moabites, descendants of Lot. Their home was the country east of the valley of the Dead Sea. This name only occurs in the Book ​of Mormon in a quotation from the words of Isaiah. (II Nephi 21:14.)
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Moriancumer, Land of

​MORIANCUMER, LAND OF. The place on the shore of the great ocean where Jared and his people tarried four years before crossing to America. It was evidently named after the brother of Jared (Mahonri Moriancumer). Here the Lord Jesus appeared to him and gave him many glorious revelations; and here by Divine command, the company built the eight barges which carried them across the ocean. We have no direct information in regard to the locality of Moriancumer, but those who believe that the Jaredites traveled eastward through Central Asia, are of the opinion that it was near the mouth of one of the great rivers that flow through the Chinese empire into the Pacific Ocean.
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Morianton, City of

​MORIANTON, CITY OF, The city built by Morianton in the land of the same name. After the settlement of the quarrel (B. C. 68), between its people and those of the land of Lehi, we next read that it was captured by the Lamanite armies under Amalickiah. (B. C. 67.) By B. C. 63 the Lamanites had made it a very strong place, and stationed a heavy garrison therein, with large quantities of provisions. In this year Moroni made preparations to recapture, it but whether he succeeded at that time, or not until later, is not clear from the record. We think it is probable that owing to the rebellion at Zarahemla, headed by Pachus, which demanded Moroni's presence there, that he did not retake Morianton until B. B. 61, when the neighboring city of Lehi was captured, and also all the other cities in the hands of the Lamanites, except Moroni. (Alma, chapter 62.)
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Mormon, Forest of

​MORMON, FOREST OF. The thicket of trees, near the waters of Mormon, in which the persecuted believers in Abinadi's mission and Alma's teachings sought refuge from the ​persecutions of king Noah and their fellow citizens of Lehi-Nephi (about, B. C. 150).
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Morianton, Land of

​MORIANTON, LAND OF. A small section of the Nephite possessions, in the neighborhood of the Caribbean Sea. It was first settled by a man named Morianton in the days of the judges (about B. C. 72). The only thing known of its history is the unrighteous quarrel of its inhabitants with their neighbors, the people of the land of Lehi (B. C. 68), their attempt to escape to the north, and their detention and forced return home by the armies of the Commonwealth. (Alma, chapter 50.)
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Moriantum, Land of

​MORIANTUM, LAND OF. A land of the Nephites, only mentioned once, and then in Mormon's second epistle to his son (Moroni, 9:9). It appears that towards the close of the last great war between the Nephites and Lamanites, both races had descended to the most horrid, cruel and disgusting practices; and in this the Nephites, if possible, exceeded their foes. Among those who had become utterly degraded, were the people of Moriantum. Mormon records that they had grown like unto wild beasts in their habits; that they first defiled the Lamanitish maidens whom they took prisoners, then slowly tortured them to death, and after they were dead devoured their flesh, and this as a token of bravery. Surely human nature could scarcely descend to greater depths of infamy and cruelty than this.

GRIGNAN, FRANCES, COUNTESS DE,
Daughter of the celebrated Madame Sevigné, was born in 1646. In 1669, she married Count Grignan, an officer of high rank at the court of Louis the Fourteenth. Her residence in Provence with her husband, and at a distance from her mother, was the cause of the writing of those excellent letters which passed between the mother and daughter. She had two daughters and one son. Her life owes all its celebrity to the interest excited by the letters of her mother. The death of the Countess de Grignan occurred in 1705.

GROUCHY, SOPHIA,
Sister of Marshal Grouchy, and widow of the celebrated French Philosopher Condorcet, was a successful writer and translator. She translated two works of Adam Smith into French; and she added "Letters on Sympathy," in which Madame Condorcet supplies some omissions of the author, whom she examines, modifies, and often combats. Her translation is remarkable for the elegance and purity of its style, the ideas and severity of philosophical language. This lady composed a treatise for the education of her daughter, which remains unpublished. She died in 1822, universally regretted.
# A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Grey, Mrs.

Layout 2
GREY, MRS.,
Is a popular English authoress, in whose writings we find nothing very new or exciting, neither do we discover anything injurious or distasteful to the most fastidious. Her books, with respect to the moral tone, may be safely allowed to "the fair and innocent." The characters are such as, in our experience, we have had the opportunity to see portrayed many hundreds of times. Mrs. Grey dresses them up, however, very cleverly, and presents them to the public suitably. "The Gambler's Wife," one of her early works, has enjoyed a wonderful popularity. In her later works there is much improvement in the style, which is now generally correct. "Aleine" is decidedly the best of her productions, where there is a very successful imitation of Mrs. Marsh; in spirit and feeling some portions of it might fairly challenge competition with "The Two Old Men's Tales." The other works of Mrs. Grey are "The Duke and the Cousin," "The Belle of the Family," "The Little Wife, a Record of Matrimonial Life," "The Manoeuvering Mother," "Sybil Lennard," "The Young Prima Donna," "The Baronet's Daughters," "Hyacinthe, or the Contrast," "Lena Cameron," "The Old Dower House,"Alice Seymour," and "Harry Monk."

GRIFFITH, ELIZABETH,
A novelist and dramatic writer of some eminence, first distinguished herself by the "Letters of Henry and Frances," which ​contained the genuine correspondence between her and her husband before their marriage. She also wrote "Memoirs of Ninon de l'Enclos," the "Morality of Shakespere's Dramas Illustrated," three novels, four comedies, and "Essays addressed to Young Married Women." She died in Ireland, in 1793.

GREVILLE, MRS.,
Wife of Fulke Greville, was a celebrated wit and beauty in English society during the last century. She wrote, about 1763, a "Prayer for Indifference," which was long very popular. The beautiful Mrs. Crewe was the daughter of Mrs. Greville. Her maiden name was Fanny M'Cartney. Mrs. Greville was the author of "Maxims and Characters," published in 1756, and some other works; but none are now of much account.
# A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Grierson, Constantia

Layout 2
GRIERSON, CONSTANTIA,
Was born in the county of Kilkenny, in Ireland She was considered an excellent scholar, not only in Greek and Roman literature, but in history, divinity, philosophy, and mathematics. She gave a proof of her knowledge of Latin by her dedication of the Dublin edition of Tacitus to Lord Carteret, and that of Terence to his son, to whom she also wrote a Greek epigram. She also composed several fine poems, in English; and was a woman of exemplary piety and virtue. What made these extraordinary talents yet more surprising, was, that her parents were poor, illiterate, country people, and she had no instruction but the little the minister of the parish gave her, when she found time from her needle-work, to which she was closely kept by her mother.
When Lord Carteret was Lord-lieutenant of Ireland, he obtained a patent for Mr. Grierson, her husband, to be the king's printer; and, to distinguish and reward her uncommon merit, had her life inserted in it. Whether owing to her own desire, or the envy of those around her, very few of her various and beautiful writings were ever published. She died in 1733, at the early age of twenty-seven.

GROSS, AMALIE VON,
Better known under her nomme de plume, Amalie Winter, was born in 1803, at Weimar. Her maiden name was Leebach. In early life she became acquainted with Goethe, and her taste and mind were formed under the influence of that remarkable man. She appeared as an authoress at the age of thirty, by contributing to a popular annual. In 1838, she published "Pictures of German Life," and afterwards novelettes; "Pictures of Women," "Recollections of a Berlin Doll," "Recollections of a Leaden Soldier," "Fairy Tales of Nature," and "The Diadem and Sceptre." She has written a great many minor tales and poems.
# A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Grotius, Mary

GROTIUS, MARY,
Daughter of Baron Reigesberg, of Zealand, was married to the renowned Hugh Grotius, July, 1608. She proved herself worthy of her illustrious husband; was his confidant and counsellor in all his pursuits, and by her fortitude and persevering affection sustained him in every reverse of fortune. When, in 1619, he was sentenced, for his political writings, to imprisonment for life in the fortress' of Louvestein, she petitioned to accompany him. This was granted on condition that if she went into the prison she should never come out She agreed to this, but finally was allowed to go oat twice a week. In prison, Grotius devoted himself entirely to his literary pursuits, while his true wife was studying how to effect his liberation. She accomplished this in the following manner.
She had been permitted to borrow books of his friends for him, and when he had used the books, they were carried hack in a chest in which his linen was carried to and from his laundress. The first year his guards were very exact in examining the chest; but being used to find nothing in it besides books and linen, they grew remiss, and did not take the trouble to open it. Madame Grotius observed this, and proposed her plan. She represented to ​her husband that it was in his power to get out of prison, if he would pat himself into this chest. But to prevent any danger to his health, she caused holes to be bored opposite to where his face was to be, so that he might breathe freely; and persuaded him to try if he could remain shut up in that confined posture (the chest was only three and a half feet in length, as long as it would require to go from Louvestein to Gorcum. Finding it might be done, she then watched for a fayourable opportunity to make the attempt. The commandant being called away, this faithful wife contrived to get her husband carried out in the chest, as though it were filled with books, while she remained in prison, pretending that he was very ill. Thus Grotius escaped, and went to Paris, where he had many friends. She was for a time confined and treated with great rigour; but finally released, and allowed to join her husband. Subsequently, when he wished to return to Holland, she went first to prepare the way. And then, when she made a journey into Zealand, to pick up the remains of their fortune, his biographer observes, "Time passed horribly with Grotius till the return of his life. She had always been his consolation in adversity. In truth, the most important works of this wonderful man owe their perfection, if not their origin, to her. She encouraged his plans, assisted him in preparing his writings for the press, and was his guardian and guiding angel through all the perils and perplexities of his life."

From volume 2 of the work.
​LEGRENZI, Giovanni, composer and conductor, born about 1625 at Clusone near Bergamo; in which town he learned music, and received his first appointment, that of organist to the church of St. Maria Maggiore. He next became maestro di capella of the church of the Spirito Santo at Ferrara, where he still was in 1664. When Krieger, Capellmeister to the Duke of Weissenfels, visited Venice in 1672, he found Legrenzi settled there as director of the Conservatorio dei Mendicanti. In 1685 he also became maestro di capella of St. Mark's, and exercised both functions till his death in July [App. p.698 "May 26"] 1690. He entirely reorganised the orchestra of ​St. Mark's, augmenting it to 34 performers, thus disposed—8 violins, 11 violette, 2 viole da braccio, 2 viole da gamba, 1 violone, 4 theorbos, 2 cornets, 1 bassoon, and 3 trombones. He composed industriously, and left specimens of his skill in most departments of music—motets, masses, psalms, instrumental music of various kinds, and 17 operas, of which the most remarkable are 'Achille in Scyro,' his first (1664); 'La Divisione del Mondo' (1675); 'I due Cesari' (1683) mentioned in the Paris 'Mercure Galant' (March 1683); and 'Pertinace' (1684), his last. They were nearly all produced in Venice. Like Scarlatti, and other composers of his time, he did not attempt to banish the comic element from his serious operas. One of his orchestral compositions is in 7 real parts, and all are important. His best pupils were Lotti and Gasparini.
