# The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë/The Lady to Her Guitar

XII
THE LADY TO HER GUITAR
For him who struck thy foreign string, I ween this heart has ceased to care; Then why dost thou such feelings bring To my sad spirit—old Guitar?
It is as if the warm sunlight In some deep glen should lingering stay, When clouds of storm, or shades of night, Have wrapt the parent orb away.
It is as if the glassy brook Should image still its willows fair, Though years ago the woodman's stroke Laid low in dust their Dryad-hair.
Even so, Guitar, thy magic tone Hath moved the tear and waked the sigh; Hath bid the ancient torrent moan Although its very source is dry.
# The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë/The Elder's Rebuke

VIII
THE ELDER'S REBUKE
'Listen! When your hair, like mine, Takes a tint of silver gray; When your eyes, with dimmer shine, Watch life's bubbles float away:
When you, young man, have borne like me The weary weight of sixty-three, Then shall penance sore be paid For those hours so wildly squandered; And the words that now fall dead On your ear, be deeply pondered— Pondered and approved at last: But their virtue will be past!
'Glorious is the prize of Duty, Though she be "a serious power"; Treacherous all the lures of Beauty, Thorny bud and poisonous flower!
'Mirth is but a mad beguiling Of the golden-gifted time; Love—a demon-meteor, wiling Heedless feet to gulfs of crime. ​'Those who follow earthly pleasure, Heavenly knowledge will not lead; Wisdom hides from them her treasure, Virtue bids them evil-speed!
'Vainly may their hearts repenting, Seek for aid in future years; Wisdom, scorned, knows no relenting; Virtue is not won by fears.'
Thus spake the ice-blooded elder gray; The young man scoffed as he turned away, Turned to the call of a sweet lute's measure, Waked by the lightsome touch of pleasure: Had he ne'er met a gentler teacher, Woe had been wrought by that pitiless preacher.
# The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë/That Word 'Never'

LII
THAT WORD 'NEVER'
Not many years but long enough to see No ten can deal such deadly misery As the dear friend untimely called away; And still the more beloved, the greater still Must be the aching void, the withering chill Of each dark night and dim, beclouded day.
December 23 [1839].
# The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë/The Bluebell

II
THE BLUEBELL
The Bluebell is the sweetest flower That waves in summer air: Its blossoms have the mightiest power To soothe my spirit's care.
There is a spell in purple heath Too wildly, sadly dear; The violet has a fragrant breath, But fragrance will not cheer.
The trees are bare, the sun is cold, And seldom, seldom seen; The heavens have lost their zone of gold, And earth her robe of green.
And ice upon the glancing stream Has cast its sombre shade; And distant hills and valleys seem In frozen mist arrayed.
The Bluebell cannot charm me now, The heath has lost its bloom; The violets in the glen below, They yield no sweet perfume. ​But, though I mourn the sweet Bluebell, 'Tis better far away; I know how fast my tears would swell To see it smile to-day.
For, oh! when chill the sunbeams fall Adown that dreary sky, And gild yon dank and darkened wall With transient brilliancy,
How do I weep, how do I pine For the time of flowers to come, And turn me from that fading shine, To mourn the fields of home!
# The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë/That dreary lake, that moonlit sky

L
That dreary lake, that moonlight sky, That wan moon struggling through the cloud, That sullen murmur whispering by As if it dared not speak aloud, Fall on my heart so sadly now, Whither my joys so lonely flow. Touch them not, they bloom and smile, But their roots are withering all the while.
# The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë/That wind, I used to hear it swelling

XL
That wind, I used to hear it swelling With joy divinely deep; You might have seen my hot tears welling, But rapture made me weep.
I used to love on winter nights To lie and dream alone Of all the hopes and real delights My early years had known.
And oh! above the best of those That coming time should bear, Like heaven's own glorious stars they rose, Still beaming bright and fair.
November 28, 1839.
# The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë/The Night-Wind

HERE again is the same mind in converse with a like abstraction. 'The Night-Wind,' breathing through an open window, has visited an ear which discerned language in its whispers.
V
THE NIGHT-WIND
In summer's mellow midnight, A cloudless moon shone through Our open parlour window, And rose-trees wet with dew.
I sat in silent musing; The soft wind waved my hair; It told me heaven was glorious, And sleeping earth was fair.
I needed not its breathing To bring such thoughts to me; But still it whispered lowly, How dark the woods will be!
'The thick leaves in my murmur Are rustling like a dream, And all their myriad voices Instinct with spirit seem.'
I said, 'Go, gentle singer, Thy wooing voice is kind: But do not think its music Has power to reach my mind. ​'Play with the scented flower, The young tree's supple bough, And leave my human feelings In their own course to flow.'
The wanderer would not heed me; Its kiss grew warmer still. 'O come!' it sighed so sweetly; 'I'll win thee 'gainst thy will.
'Were we not friends from childhood? Have I not loved thee long? As long as thou, the solemn night, Whose silence wakes my song.
'And when thy heart is resting Beneath the church-aisle stone, I shall have time for mourning, And thou for being alone.'
# The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë/Sympathy

XIII
SYMPATHY
There should be no despair for you While nightly stars are burning, While evening pours its silent dew, And sunshine gilds the morning. There should be no despair—though tears May flow down like a river: Are not the best beloved of years Around your heart for ever?
They weep, you weep, it must be so; Winds sigh as you are sighing, And winter sheds its grief in snow Where Autumn's leaves are lying: Yet, these revive, and from their fate Your fate cannot be parted: Then, journey on, if not elate, Still never broken-hearted!
# The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë/Tell me, tell me, smiling child

IV
Tell me, tell me, smiling child, What the past is like to thee? An Autumn evening, soft and mild, With a wind that sighs mournfully.
Tell me what is the present hour? A green and flowery spray, Where a young bird sits gathering its power To mount and fly away.
And what is the future, happy one? A sea beneath a cloudless sun; A mighty, glorious, dazzling sea, Stretching into infinity.
The inspiring music's thrilling sound, The glory of the festal day, The glittering splendour rising round, Have passed like all earth's joys away.
Forsaken by that lady fair, She glides unheeding through them all; Covering her brow to hide the tear That still, though checked, trembles to fall.
She hurries through the outer hall, And up the stairs through galleries dim, That murmur to the breezes' call The night-wind's lonely vesper hymn.
# The Czechoslovak Review/Volume 2/The Japanese recoginition

THE JAPANESE RECOGNITION.
The Japanese Government issued on the 9th of September the following declaration:
The Japanese government have noted with deep sympathy and interest the just aspirations of the Czechoslovak people to exact free and independent national existence. These aspirations have consciously been made manifest in their determined and well organized efforts to arrest the progress of the Germanic aggressive policy.
In these circumstances the Japanese government are happy to regard the Czechoslovak army| as an allied and belligerent army waging regular warfare against Austria-Hungary and Germany, and to recognize the right of the Czechoslovak National Council to exercise the supreme control over that army.
They are further prepared to enter into communication with the duly authorized representatives of the Czechoslovak National Council, whenever necessary, on all matters of mutual interest to the Japanese and Czechoslovak forces in Siberia.

# The Dictionary of Australasian Biography/Lyster, William Saurin

Layout 2
​Lyster, William Saurin, son of Captain Chaworth Lyster, and godson of the Hon. William Saurin, then Attorney-General for Ireland, was born in Dublin in 1827. After an adventurous youth, visiting Australia in his boyhood, and afterwards serving as a volunteer under the famous buccaneer Walker of Nicaragua, William Saurin Lyster finally settled in Melbourne, bringing with him a full high-class operatic company; and could claim the honour of introducing Italian opera into Australia, although there had been excellent operatic singers before his time in Sydney. Lyster's first operatic company included Madame Lucy Escott, who retained for many years undisputed sway as the favourite prima-donna—a gifted singer and a fine tragic actress; Miss Georgia Hodson (afterwards Mrs. Lyster); Madame Rosalie Durand; Henry Squires, the popular tenor; and Mr. Fred Lyster, brother of the impresario. Such an undertaking was no light one in those days; but Lyster not only introduced the above artistes, but continued to bring out, from time to time, other brilliant singers, who have left a name in the musical annals of Australia. Among these may be named Madame Fanny Simonsen, an admirable vocalist and actress, equally at home in classic opera or opera-bouffe, and her husband, the excellent violinist. These are specially named, not only on account of their excellence as artistes, but because they settled down in the colonies, and became in course of time Australians. In partnership first with Mr. John Smith, and then with Signor Cagli, Lyster introduced to the colonial public a succession of brilliant Italian singers; while two of their conductors, Herr Siede and Signor Zelman, remained, like the Simonsens, in Australia, and continued to brighten colonial existence by their musical talent. Mr. Lyster also introduced the celebrated pianiste, Madame Arabella Goddard, as well as Levey, the famous cornet-player. In addition to acclimatising Italian opera, he organised English companies for the production of favourite ballad operas and adaptations of French opera-bouffe. Among these English companies were singers of the highest merit, but none so identified with operatic art in Australia as Mr. Armes Beaumont, the popular tenor, who for almost twenty years has held an unique position in the estimation of Melbourne audiences as the favourite in oratorio, in classical opera, in opera-bouffe, and on the concert platform. For many years Mr. W. S. Lyster was the lessee of the Opera House, Melbourne; and it was at this theatre, and under Mr. Lyster's management, that the great Italian tragédienne, Madame Ristori, and her company appeared. He died on Nov. 26th, 1880.
