WEEVER. The weevers (Trachinus) are small marine fishes which are common on the coasts of Europe, and which have attained notoriety from the painful and sometimes dangerous wounds they are able to inflict upon those who incautiously handle them. They belong to a family of spiny-rayed fishes (Trachinidæ), and are distinguished by a long low body with two dorsal fins, the anterior of which is composed of six or seven spines only, the posterior being long and many-rayed; their anal resembles in form and composition the second dorsal fin. The ventral fins are placed in advance of the pectorals, and consist of a spine and five rays. The caudal fin has the hind margin not excised. The body is covered with very small scales, sunk in and firmly adherent to the skin, but the upper surface of the head is bony, without integument. The head, like the body, is compressed, with the eyes of moderate size and placed on the side of the head; the mouth is wide, oblique, and armed with bands of very small teeth.
Several species of weevers are known, but two only occur on the British coasts, viz., the Greater Weever (Trachinus draco) and the Lesser Weever (T. vipera); the former is frequently found of a length of 12 inches, and possesses some thirty rays in the second dorsal fin, whilst the latter grows only to about half that length, and has about ten rays less in the dorsal. The coloration of both is plain, bnt the short first dorsal fin is always of a deep black colour. The weevers are bottom fish, burying and hiding them selves in the sand or between shingle,—the lesser species living close inshore and the greater preferring deeper water, and being found sometimes floating on the surface at a distance of several miles from the shore. Although weevers, especially the lesser, are in the habit of burying themselves in the sand, and are abundant in some localities much resorted to by bathers, accidents from stepping upon them are much more rare than from incautiously handling them after capture. They probably make their escape on perceiving the approach of a person. The wounds are inflicted by the dorsal and opercular spines, are very painful, and sometimes cause violent local inflammation. In the absence of any special poison organ it is most probable that the mucous secretion in the vicinity of the spines has poisonous properties. The spines are deeply grooved, the poisonous fluid which is lodged in the grooves being thus introduced into the punctured wound.

# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Wentworth Dillon, Earl of Roscommon

See also the disclaimer.
​ROSCOMMON, Wentworth Dillon, Earl of (1634-1684), one of the pioneers of the so-called “classical” school in English poetry, owed his burial in Westminster Abbey more to his rank than to his achievements in poetry. But his Essay on Translated Verse (1684), though feeble in thought, has a certain distinction in the history of our literature as being the first definite enunciation of the principles of the “poetic diction” of our Augustan age. He is vary refined and fastidious in his notions of dignified writing, and intimates, though with a genteel affectation of humility, that the “railing heroes” and “wounded gods” of Homer are too vulgar for a correct taste. He himself wrote in the finest of diction, but he wrote little. On Fenton's remark that his imagination might have been more fertile if his judgment had been less severe Johnson makes the comment that his judgment might have been less severe if his imagination had been more fertile. The subjects of his half-dozen of original poems range from the death of a pet dog to the day of judgment, both treated in the same elevated and conventional style. Roscommon, a nephew of the great earl of Strafford, was born in Ireland, and educated partly under a tutor at his uncle's seat in Yorkshire, partly at Caen in Normandy, and partly at Rome. He published a translation of Horace's Art of Poetry in 1680.

# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Raleigh

See also Raleigh, North Carolina on Wikipedia; the 11th edition; and the disclaimer.
RALEIGH, a city of the United States, the capital of North Carolina and the seat of justice of Wake county, is situated in 35° 47′ N. lat. and 78° 48′ W. long., a little to the north-east of the geographical centre of the State, and occupies a kind of high ground in the upper valley of the Neuse, a river flowing south-east towards Pamlico Sound. It is the meeting-place of three railways—the Raleigh and Gaston, the Raleigh and Augusta, and the Richmond and Danville lines—and its railway distance from Portsmouth is 177 miles and from Washington 230. Raleigh is laid out round a park of 10 acres called Union Square and divided into four sections by four broad streets which strike out symmetrically from this centre; the fine old trees which were spared by the original settlers give it the sobriquet of “City of Oaks.” Besides the State house or capitol (a substantial granite structure in Union Square), the public buildings comprise the county courthouse, the governor's mansion, the United States courthouse and post-office (1875), the State geological museum, a State insane asylum, institutions for the blind and the deaf and dumb, the penitentiary, and the Shaw institute for the higher education of coloured pupils. There are a normal school and a graded school system for both white and coloured pupils. Raleigh is a centre of the cotton and tobacco trades, has railway machine and car shops, and manufactures steam-engines, shuttle blocks and bobbins, ice, cotton-seed oil, fertilizers, hosiery, clothing, agricultural implements, carriages, carpentry, cigars, marble wares, &c. The population was 4780 in 1860, 7790 (4094 coloured) in 1870, and 9265 (4354 coloured) in 1880. Raleigh was selected as the seat of government in 1788, was laid out in 1792, and made a city in 1794.
# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Princes Islands

See also Prince Islands on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
​ PRINCES ISLANDS, the Demonesi or Demonnesi of the ancients, a beautiful cluster in the Sea of Marmora opposite that part of the Asiatic coast which trends south-east from Scutari to the entrance of the Gulf of Ismid (Nicomedia). They are nine in number—Prote (Turkish, Tinaki), Antigone, Khalki or Karki (Chalcitis or “coppermine island” of the ancients), Plate, Oxeia, Pitys, Antirobido (Terebinth or Rabbit Island), Neandro, and Prinkipo. Prinkipo or Principo (with an Italian c), Kyzyl-Ada or Red Island of the Turks, the largest of the group, is a broad green hill of red quartz rising with soft and verdant outlines into two peaks, the higher of which (500 feet) is crowned by the ex-monastery of St George, embosomed amid its oaks. On the height above the town of Prinkipo is the monastery of the Transfiguration and on the coast opposite Antirobido that of St Nicholas. A white-flowered heath (Erica arborea), two species of cistus (Cistus villosus and salvifolius), and lavender give character to the luxuriant vegetation. Khalki contains three convents and an Ottoman naval college; and the whole group, especially Khalki and Plate, form a great summer resort for the Greeks of Constantinople, from which city there is a regular steamer service.
The Princes Islands are intimately associated with Byzantine history. A convent in Prinkipo (now a mass of ruins at the spot called Kamares) was a place of exile for the empresses Irene, Euphrosyne, Zoe, and Anna Dalassena. Antigone was the prison of the patriarch Methodius, and its chapel is said to have been built by Theodora. In Khalki the monastery of the Theotokos (originally of St John), which since 1831 has been a Greek commercial school, was probably founded by John VIII. Palæologus, and was rebuilt about 1680 by the famous Panagiotaki, and again by Alexander Ypsilanti of Moldavia. Close beside it is the tomb of Edward Barton, second English ambassador to the Porte. Hagia Trias (a school of theology since 1844) was rebuilt by the patriarch Metrophanes of bibliographical memory. Antirobido is associated with the exile of Ignatius and Theodosius; and Plate contained subterranean state-prisons hewn out of the rock.

# Fifty years shepherd, and fifty a king/The bundle of wants

BUNDLE OF WANTS.
Come, Gentlemen, sit you all merry, I’ll sing you a song of want; I’ll make you as merry as can be, Now my money begins to grow scant.
A woman without ever a tongue, She never can scold very loud; It’s just such another sad want, When a fiddler wants his crowd.
​A ship without ever a sail, May be driven the Lord knows whither, It’s just such another sad want, As a shoemaker wanting his leather.
A man that has got but one leg, Will make but a very bad runner; And he that’s no eyes in his head, Will make but a sorrowful gunner.
A bell without ever a clapper, Will make but a sorrowful sound; And he that’s no land of his own, Must work on another man’s ground.
A woman without e’er a fault, She bright as a star will appear; But a brewer without any malt, Will brew us but pitiful beer.
A soldier without any pay, To fight will be terrible lazy; And a bed well stocked with fleas, Will make a man wonderful busy.
A miller without a pair of stones, He is but a sorrowful soul; And if he has no corn to grind,
​A man that has got a bad stomach, Will make but a pitiful dinner; And he that’s no victuals to eat, His jaws will grow thinner and thinner.
You know that a dish of good meat Is the comfort and joy of man’s life; But he that’s no victuals to eat, Has no need to draw out his knife.
A ploughman without e’er a plough, I think he may live at his ease; And a dairy without e’er a cow, Will make but bad butter and cheese.
A man that is pitiful poor, Has little or nothing to lose; And he that has got ne’er a foot, It saves him the buying of shoes.
A woman that never bore children, Is barren, and so much the worse; And he that is quite out of money, Can have no need of a purse.
I hope there’s no one in this place, Displeas’d any way with my song; Come, buy up my ballads apace,

THE KING AND WEST COUNTRYMAN.
There was an old chap in the west country, A flaw in his lease the lawyers had found; It were all about a-felling some oak trees, And building some houses upon his own ground. Ri tooral, &c.
Now this old chap to Lunnun did go, To tell the King a part of his woe, Likewise to tell him a part of his grief, In hopes King George would give him relief. Ri tooral, &c.
Now this old chap to Lunnun did go, But found the King to Windsor had gone; But if he had known he’d not been at home, He domm’d his buttons if ever he’d come. Ri tooral, &c.
Now this old chap to Windsor did go, But the gates were barred, and all secure; He humped and thumped with his oaken clump, There’s room within for I, to be sure. Ri tooral, &c.
Pray, Mr Noble, shew I the King— What’s that the King that I see there? I seed a chap at Bartlemy Fair, Much liker a King than that chap there.
​Pray, Mr. Kiug, how do you do? I’ze gotten for yon a bit on a jobb’n, And if you’re so kind, to make you amends, I’ze gotten a summat in my fobb’n. Ri tooral, &c.
The King he took the lease in hand, And to sign it he was likewise willing; And the farmer, to make him a little amends He lugged out his bag, and gi’d him a shilling, Ri tooral, &c.
The King, to carry on the joke, He ordered ten pounds to be paid down, For year and year after, and evermore, Likewise ten shillings and half-a-crown Ri tooral, &c.
The farmer he stared, and looked very funny, To take up the cash he was likewise willing; But if he had known he’d so much money, He domm’d his wig if he’d gave him the shilling Ri tooral, &c.

In the sky the moon was standing; Dreams to me new songs were lending.
Birds came and told one another How much we did love each other.
That the fair fresh meadow flowers Would be wedding gowns of ours.
That green ivy with her story Would wreathe Thy head with its glory.
Adorned with thousand charms, That Thou wouldst rest in my arms.

(Posthumous)
The moon sails slowly in the sky So calmly and so freely; The nightingale wails in the twigs So sweetly and so really.
Thy image stands in front of me So calmly and so freely; The heart in longing wakes and calls So sweetly and so really.
A swarm of songs is circling ’round So calmly and so freely; And into mine eye steals a tear So sweetly and so really.
Now gentle sleep knocks at my door So calmly and so freely— And I recall Thee to my mind So sweetly and so really.

If that poor nightingale Lived always with her mate, Her love songs would not sound So sad and desolate.
If that poor heart but would With Thee wake through the night, Instead of pain it would Resound with sweet delight.
# Evening Songs (1920)/9

IX
Should I tell Thee the secret tale As nightingale in the oak forest— Or should I weep in bitter tears What sways my heart and gives it no rest?
Or, kneeling down, with ardent words Should I in prayer spell my passion— Or in a fair and tranquil night Out of my dream breathe my confession?
Or should the hidden paradise Sleep in my heart’s depth, never uttered, Like in a grave, and far from Thee My love in secret be but muttered?
O angel mine, I do confess My love for mankind, never dying; But toward Thee—O, don’t chide me, That my mind’s weak and undefying!
