# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Timrod, Henry

Timrod, Henry (1829-1867). -- Poet, b. at Charleston, S. Carolina, of German descent, was ruined by the Civil War, and d. in poverty. He wrote one vol. of poems, pub. 1860, which attained wide popularity in the South. He had notable descriptive power.
# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Toplady, Augustus Montague

​Toplady, Augustus Montague (1740-1778).—Hymn writer, s. of an officer in the army, was b. at Farnham, ed. at Westminster and Trinity Coll., Dublin, after which he took orders and became incumbent of Broad Hembury. He was a strong Calvinist and entered into a bitter controversy with Wesley. His controversial works are forgotten; but he will always be remembered as the author of "Rock of Ages," perhaps the most widely known of English hymns.
# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Tillotson, John

Tillotson, John (1630-1694). -- Divine, s. of a Presbyterian clothier, was b. near Halifax, and ed. at Camb., where his originally Puritan views became somewhat modified. At the Savoy Conference in 1661 he was still a Presbyterian, but submitted to the Act of Uniformity, and became next year Rector of Keddington, and in 1664 preacher at Lincoln's Inn, where he became very popular. In 1672 he was made Dean of Canterbury. He vainly endeavoured to secure the comprehension of the Nonconformists in the Church. After the Revolution he gained the favour of William III., who made him Clerk of the Closet, and Dean of St. Paul's, and in 1691 he succeeded Sancroft as Archbishop of Canterbury. His sermons, which had extraordinary popularity, give him a place in literature, and he was one of those writers who, by greater simplicity and greater attention to clearness of construction, helped to introduce the modern style of composition.

Supporting the Goals and Ideals of National Chemistry Week
HON. ADRIAN SMITH
OF NEBRASKA IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Monday, October 22, 2007
Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. Madam Speaker, National Chemistry Week recognizes the importance of chemistry to our modern society. Chemistry is vital to the economy and the success of the Third District of Nebraska. Nebraska is known for its food, fiber, and fuel industries-- all of which rely on chemistry. Production of ethanol from corn and biomass, manufacture of biodiesel, and creation of safe and effective agricultural chemicals are all possible because of chemistry and chemists.
More chemists are needed to continue these innovations that are so important to our rural economy. We have bright, young people in the Third District known for their great work ethic and Nebraska values, and who are sought after for jobs all over the world. We need to encourage our young people to succeed in careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, also known as STEM careers. They are needed in Nebraska and all over the United States. More outreach is needed to encourage the next generation to consider chemistry and other STEM careers.
Students in chemistry clubs in Nebraska's Third District will perform outreach activities during National Chemistry Week. Students at Hastings College in Hastings, Nebraska, will give away ice cream and information on chemistry at the Student Union this week. The Chemistry Club at the University of Nebraska-Kearney will have a "Chemistry in Action" demonstration table in the Student Union and will visit area middle and elementary schools where they will perform experiments for students, including "pink slime" and liquid nitrogen demonstrations. I want to commend these budding chemists for reaching out to their fellow students and for introducing children to the joys of chemistry. That is what National Chemistry Week is all about.

Adrift! A little boat adrift! And night is coming down! Will no one guide a little boat Unto the nearest town?
So Sailors say — on yesterday — Just as the dusk was brown One little boat gave up its strife And gurgled down and down.

# Adventures of John o' Badenyon, in pursuit of happiness/John o' Badenyon

JOHN o’ BADENYON.
When first I came to be a man of twenty years or so,
I thought myself a handsome youth, and fain the world would know;
In bell attire I kept abroad, with spirits brisk and gay,
And here and there, and every-where, was like a morn in May.
No cares I had, nor fears of want, but rambled up and down,
And for a beau I might have pass'd in country or in town;
I still was pleas’d where-e'er I went, and when I was alone,
I tun’d my pipe, and pleas’d myself wi’ John o’ Badenyon.
Now, in the days of youthful prime, a mistress I must find,
For love, I heard, gave one an air, and ev'n improv’d the mind, ​On Phillis fair, among the rest,
kind Fortune fix’d my eyes,
Her piercing beauties struck my heart,
and she became my choice.
To Cupid now, with hearty pray’r,
I offer’d many a vow;
And danc’d, & sung, & sigh’d, & swore,
as other lovers do:
But when at last I breath’d my flame,
I found her cold as stone;
I left the girl and tun’d my pipe
to John o’ Badenyon.
When love had thus my heart beguil’d,
with foolish hopes and vain,
To friendship next I steer’d my course,
and laugh’d at lovers’ pain:
A friend I got by lucky chance,
’twas something like divine,
An honest friend’s a precious gift,
and such a gift was mine;
And now, whatever might betide,
a happy man was I;
In any strait I knew to whom
I freely might apply; ​A strait soon came, my friend I try'd
he laugh’d, and spurn’d my moan;
I hy’d me home, and tun’d my pipe
to John o’ Badenyon.
Methought I should be wiser next,
and would a Pa riot turn;
Began to doat on Johnny Wilkes,
and cry’d up Parson Horn;
Their noble spirit I admir’d,
and prais'd their manly zeal,
Who had with flaming tongue and pen
maintain’d the public weal.
But ere a month or two was past,
I found myself betray'd,
’Twas self and party after all,
for all the stir they made:
At last I saw the factious knaves
insult the very throne;
I curs’d them all, and tun’d my pipe
to John o’ Badenyon.
What next to do I mus’d a while,
still hoping to succeed:
I pitch’d on books for company,
and gravely try’d to read: ​I bought and borrow'd every-where
and studied night and day,
Nor miss'd what Dean or Doctor wrote,
that happen’d in my way.
Philosophy I now esteem'd
the ornament of youth,
And carefully thro’ many a page
I hunted after truth:
A thousand various schemes I try’d,
and yet was pleas’d with none:
I threw them by, and tun’d my pipe
to John o’ Badenyon.
And now you youngsters, ev'ry one,
that wish to make a show.
Take heed in time, nor fondly hope
for happiness below:
What you may fancy pleasure here,
is but an empty name:
And girls, and friends, and books also,
you’ll find them all the same.
Then be advis'd, and warning take
from such a man as me,
I’m neither Pope, nor Cardinal,
nor one of high degree: ​You’ll meet displeasure ev’ry-where:
then do as I have done.
E’en tune your pipe, and please yourself
wi’ John o’ Badenyon.

CHAPTER XXV.
Concerning Those who desist from their Purpose.
§. 1.Consider which of the Things. which you at first proposed to yourself, you have retained, which not, and how; which give you Pleasure, which Pain, in the Reflection; and, if possible, recover yourself, where you have failed. For the Champions, in this greatest of Combats, must not grow weary; but are even content​edly to bear Whipping. For this is no Combat of Wrestling or Boxing; where both he who succeeds, and he who doth not succeed, may possibly be of very great Worth, or of little; indeed may be very fortunate, or very miserable: but the Combat is for good Fortune and Happiness itself. What is the Case then? Here, even if we have renounced the Contest, no one restrains us from renewing it; nor need we wait for another Four Years, for the Return of another Olympiad; but recollecting, and recovering yourself, and returning with the same Zeal, you may renew it immediately: and even if you should again yield, you may again begin: and, if you once get the Victory, you become like one who hath never yielded. Only do not begin, from a Habit of this, to do it with Pleasure, and then, like Quails that have fled the Pit, go about as if you were a brave Champion, though you have been conquered, all the Games round.——"The Appearance of a pretty Girl conquers me." What then? "Have not I been conquered before? I have a mind to rail at somebody. Well: have not I railed before?"——You talk to us just as if you had come off unhurt. Like one that should say to his Physician, who had forbidden him to bathe, "Why, did not I bathe before?" Suppose the Physician should answer him, "Well: and what was the Consequence of your Bathing? Were not you feverish? Had not you the Head-ach?" So, when you before railed at somebody, did not you act like an ill-natured Person; ​like an impertinent one? Have not you fed this Habit of yours, by Actions familiar to it? When you were conquered by a pretty Girl, did you come off with Impunity? Why then do you talk of what you have done before? You ought to remember it, I think, as Slaves do Whipping, so as to refrain from the same Faults.——"But the Case is unlike: for there it is Pain that causes the Remembrance: but what is the Pain, what the Punishment, of my committing Faults? For when was I ever habituated [by any Suffering] to avoiding acting ill?"——Therefore the Pairs of Experience, whether we will, or not, have their Use.
* ↑ It was a Sport among the Greeks, to put Quails in a circular Space, like our Cockpits, and use various Ways of trying their Courage. If the Quail ran away out of the Pit, its Master lost.
* ↑ An Allusion to the Pythian, Isthmian, Nemean, and Olympic Games. The Persons who were victorious in all these, were distinguished by a particular Name; signifying, that they had been Conquerors through the whose Circle of the Games. Upton.

CHAPTER VIII.
How we are to exercise ourselves, against the Appearances of Things.
§. 1.In the same manner, as we exercise ourselves, against sophistical Questions, we should exercise ourselves likewise, in relation to such Appearances, as every Day occur: for these too offer Questions to us.——Such a one's Son is ​dead. What do you think of it? Answer: it is independent on Choice: it is not an Evil.——Such a one is disinherited by his Father. What do you think of it? It is independent on Choice: it is not an Evil.——Cæsar hath condemned him.——This is independent on Choice: it is not an Evil——He hath been afflicted by it.——This is dependent on Choice: it is an Evil.——He hath supported it bravely.——This is dependent on Choice: it is a Good.
§. 2. If we accustom ourselves in this manner, we shall make an Improvement; for we shall never affect to any thing, but what the Appearance itself comprehends. A Son is dead.——What hath happened?——A Son is dead.——Nothing more?——Nothing.——A Ship is lost.——What hath happened?——A Ship is lost. He is carried to Prison.——What hath happened?——He is carried to Prison. That he is unhappy, is an Addition, that every one makes of his own.——"But Jupiter doth not order these Things right."——Why so? Because he hath made you patient? Because he hath made you brave? Because he hath made them to be no Evils? Because it is permitted you, while you suffer them, to be happy? Because he hath opened you the Door, whenever they do not suit you? Go out, Man, and do not complain.
§. 3. If you would know how the Romans treat Philosophers, hear. Italicus, esteemed one of the greatest Philosophers among them, being in a Pas​sion with his own People, as if he had suffered some intolerable Evil, said once when I was by, "I cannot bear it; you are the Ruin of me; you will make me just like him;" pointing to me.

CHAPTER VI.
Miscellaneous.
§. 1.When he was asked, How it came to pass, that, though the Art of Reasoning is more studied now, yet the Improvements were greater, formerly? In what Instance, answered he, is it more studied now; and in what were the Improvements greater, then? For in what is studied, at present, in that will be found likewise the Improvements, at present. The present Study is the Solution of Syllogisms; and in this, Improvements are made. But formerly, the Study was to preserve the governing Faculty conformable to Na​ture; and Improvement was made in that. Therefore do not confound Things; nor when you study one, expect Improvement in another; but see whether any of us, who applies himself to think and act conformably to Nature, ever fails of Improvement. Depend upon it, you will not find one.
§. 2. A good Man is invincible; for he doth not contend, where he is not superior. If you would have his Land, take it: takes his Servants; take his public Post; take his Body. But you will never frustrate his Desire, nor make him incur his Aversion. He engages in no Combat, but what concerns the Objects of his own Choice. How can he fail then to be invincible?
§. 3. Being asked, what common Sense was? he answered; As that may be called a common Ear, which distinguishes only Sounds; but that, which distinguishes Notes, an artificial one: so there are some Things, which Men, not totally perverted, discern by their common natural Powers; and such a Disposition is called common Sense.
§. 4. It is not easy to gain the Attention of effeminate young Men; for you cannot take Custard by a Hook: but the Ingenuous, even if you discourage them, are the more eager for Learning. Hence Rufus, for the most part, did discourage them; and made use of that, as a Criterion of the Ingenuous and Disingenuous. For he used to say, As a Stone, even if you throw it up, will, by its own Propensity, be carried downward; so an ingenuous Mind, the more it is forced from its natural Bent, the more strongly will it incline towards it.

CHAPTER IV.
Concerning one who exerted himself, with indecent Eagerness in the Theatre.
§. 1.When the Governor of Epirus had exerted himself indecently, in favour of a Comedian, and was, upon that Account, publicly railed at; and, when he came to hear it, was highly displeased with those who railed at him: Why: what Harm, says Epictetus, have these People done? They have favoured a Player; which is just what you did.
Is this a proper Manner then, of expressing their Favour?
Seeing you, their Governor, and the Friend and Vicegerent of Cæsar, express it thus, was it not to be expected, that they would express it thus too? For, if it is not right to express Favour, in this Manner, to a Player, be not guilty of it yourself; and, if it is, why are you angry at them, for imitating you? For whom have the Many to imitate, but you, their Superiors? From whom are they to take Example, when they come into the Theatre, but from you? "Do but look how Cæsar's Vicegerent sees the Play? Hath he cried out? I will cry out too. Hath he leaped up from his Seat? I too will leap up from mine. Do his Slaves sit in different Parts of the House, making an Uproar? I indeed have no Slaves; but I will make as much Uproar as I can myself, instead of ever so many."
§. 2. You ought to consider then, that when you appear in the Theatre, you appear as a Rule and Example to others, how they ought to see the Play. Why is it, that they have railed at you? Because every Man hates what hinders him. They ​would have one Actor crowned; you, another. They hindered you; and you, them. You proved the stronger. They have done what they could: they have railed at the Person who hindered them. What would you have then? Would you do as you please, and not have them even talk as they please? Where is the Wonder of all this? Doth not the Husbandman rail at Jupiter, when he is hindered by him? Doth not the Sailor? Do Men ever cease railing at Cæsar? What then, is Jupiter ignorant of this? Are not the Things that are said, reported to Cæsar? How then doth he act? He knows, that, if he was to punish all Railers, he would have nobody left to command.
§. 3. When you enter the Theatre then, ought you to say, "Come, let Sophron be crowned?" No. But, "Come, let me preserve my Choice, in a Manner conformable to Nature, upon this Occasion. No one is dearer to me than myself. It is ridiculous then, that, because another Man gains the Victory as a Player, I should be hurt. Whom do I wish to gain the Victory? Him who doth gain it; and thus he will always be victorious, whom I wish to be so."——But I would have Sophron crowned.——Why, celebrate as many Games as you will, at your own House; Nemean, Pythian, Isthmian, Olympic, and proclaim him Victor in all: but, in public, do not arrogate more than your Due, nor seize to yourself what lies in common; otherwise, bear to be railed at: for, if you act like the Mob, you reduce yourself to an Equality with them.
