# Samuel Johnson (Meynell & Chesterton)/Chapter 2

LIVES OF EMINENT PERSONS
"To have great excellences and great faults, magnae virtutes, nec minora vitia, is the poesy," says our author, "of the best natures." This poesy may be properly applied to the style of Browne; it is vigorous, but rugged; it is learned, but pedantic; it is deep, but obscure; it strikes, but does not please; it commands, but does not allure: his tropes are harsh, and his combinations uncouth. He fell into an age in which our language began to lose the stability which it had obtained in the time of Elizabeth; and was considered by every writer as a subject on which he might try his plastic skill, by moulding it according to his own fancy. Milton, in consequence of this encroaching licence, began to introduce the Latin idiom: and Browne, though he gave less disturbance to our structures in phraseology, yet poured in a multitude of exotic words; many, indeed, useful and significant, which, if rejected, must be supplied by circumlocution, such as commensality for the state of many living at the same table; but many superfluous, as a paralogical for an unreasonable doubt; and some so obscure, that ​they conceal his meaning rather than explain it, as arthritical analogies, for parts that serve some animals in the place of joints.
His style is, indeed, a tissue of many languages; a mixture of heterogeneous words, brought together from distant regions, with terms originally appropriated to one art, and drawn by violence into the service of another. He must, however, be confessed to have augmented our philosophical diction: and in defence of his uncommon words and expressions, we must consider, that he had uncommon sentiments, and was not content to express in many words that idea for which any language could supply a single term.
But his innovations are sometimes pleasing, and his temerities happy: he has many verba ardentia, forcible expressions, which he would never have found but by venturing to the utmost verge of propriety; and flights which would never have been reached, but by one who had very little fear of the shame of falling.
If to have all that riches can purchase is to be rich; if to do all that can be done in a long time is to live long; he is equally a benefactor to mankind, who teaches them to protract the duration, or shorten the business, of life.

# Snake, the Goose, and Nightingale

From Fables.
* The SNAKE, the GOOSE, and NIGHTINGALE.
* Humbly addressed to the Hissers and Catcallers attending both Houses.
* FABLE XIV.
* When rul'd by truth and nature's ways,
* When just to blame, yet fix'd to praise,
* As votary of the Delphic God,
* I reverence the critic's rod;
* 5 But when inflam'd with spite alone,
* I hold all critics but as one;
* For tho' they class themselves with art,
* And each man takes a different part;
* Yet whatsoe'er they praise and blame;
* 10 They in their motives are the same.
* Forth as she waddled in the brake,
* A grey Goose stumbled on a Snake,
* And took th'occasion to abuse her,
* And of rank plagiarism accuse her.
* 15 “'Twas I, quoth she, in every vale,
* First hiss'd the noisy Nightingale;
* And boldly cavill'd at each note,
* That twitter'd in the Woodlark's throat:
* "I, who sublime and more than mortal,
* 20 Must stoop to enter at the portal,
* Have ever been the first to show
* My hate to every thing that's low;
* While thou, mean mimic of my manner,
* (Without inlisting to my banner)
* 25 Dar'st in thy grov'ling situation,
* To counterfeit my sibilation.”
* The Snake enrag'd, reply'd, “Know, Madam,
* I date my charter down from Adam;
* Nor can I, since I bear the bell,
* 30 E'er imitate where I excell.
* Had any other creature dar'd
* Once to aver, what you've aver'd,
* I might have been more fierce and fervent,
* But you're a Goose,—and so your servant.”
* 35 “Truce with your folly and your pride,”
* The warbling Philomela cry'd;
* “Since no more animals we find
* “In nature, of the hissing kind,
* You should be friends with one another,
* 40 Nay, kind as brother is to brother.
* For know, thou pattern of abuse,
* Thou Snake art but a crawling goose;
* And thou dull dabbler in each lake,
* Art nothing but a feather'd Snake.” 1754

# Songs of the Road/A Hymn of Empire

A HYMN OF EMPIRE (Coronation Year, 1911)
God save England, blessed by Fate, So old, yet ever young: The acorn isle from which the great Imperial oak has sprung! And God guard Scotland's kindly soil, The land of stream and glen, The granite mother that has bred A breed of granite men!
God save Wales, from Snowdon's vales To Severn's silver strand! For all the grace of that old race Still haunts the Celtic land. ​And, dear old Ireland, God save you, And heal the wounds of old, For every grief you ever knew May joy come fifty-fold!
Set Thy guard over us, May Thy shield cover us, Enfold and uphold us On land and on sea! From the palm to the pine, From the snow to the line, Brothers together And children of Thee.
Thy blessing, Lord, on Canada, Young giant of the West, Still upward lay her broadening way, And may her feet be blessed! ​And Africa, whose hero breeds Are blending into one, Grant that she tread the path which leads To holy unison.
May God protect Australia, Set in her Southern Sea! Though far thou art, it cannot part Thy brother folks from thee. And you, the Land of Maori, The island-sisters fair, Ocean hemmed and lake be-gemmed, God hold you in His care!
Set Thy guard over us, May Thy shield cover us, Enfold and uphold us On land and on sea! ​From the palm to the pine, From the snow to the line, Brothers together And children of Thee.
God guard our Indian brothers, The Children of the Sun, Guide us and walk beside us, Until Thy will be done. To all be equal measure, Whate'er his blood or birth, Till we shall build as Thou hast willed O'er all Thy fruitful Earth.
May we maintain the story Of honest, fearless right! Not ours, not ours the Glory! What are we in Thy sight? ​Thy servants, and no other, Thy servants may we be, To help our weaker brother, As we crave for help from Thee!
Set Thy guard over us, May Thy shield cover us, Enfold and uphold us On land and on sea! From the palm to the pine, From the snow to the line, Brothers together And children of Thee.
# Songs of the Road/Advice to a Young Author

ADVICE TO A YOUNG AUTHOR
First begin Taking in. Cargo stored, All aboard, Think about Giving out. Empty ship, Useless trip!
Never strain Weary brain, Hardly fit, Wait a bit! ​After rest Comes the best. Sitting still, Let it fill; Never press; Nerve stress Always shows. Nature knows.
Critics kind, Never mind! Critics flatter, No matter! Critics curse, None the worse. Critics blame, All the same! Do your best. Hang the rest!

FOREWORD
If it were not for the hillocks
You'd think little of the hills;
The rivers would seem tiny
If it were not for the rills.
If you never saw the brushwood
You would under-rate the trees;
And so you see the purpose
Of such little rhymes as these.

# Songs of the Road/A Voyage

A VOYAGE
1909
Breathing the stale and stuffy air Of office or consulting room,
Our thoughts will wander back to where We heard the low Atlantic boom, And, creaming underneath our screw, We watched the swirling waters break, Silver filagrees on blue Spreading fan-wise in our wake.
Cribbed within the city's fold, Fettered to our daily round, We'll conjure up the haze of gold Which ringed the wide horizon round. ​And still we'll break the sordid day By fleeting visions far and fair, The silver shield of Vigo Bay, The long brown cliff of Finisterre.
Where once the Roman galley sped, Or Moorish corsair spread his sail, By wooded shore, or sunlit head, By barren hill or sea-washed vale We took our way. But we can swear, That many countries we have scanned, But never one that could compare With our own island mother-land.
The dream is o'er. No more we view The shores of Christian or of Turk, But turning to our tasks anew, We bend us to our wonted work. ​But there will come to you and me Some glimpse of spacious days gone by, The wide, wide stretches of the sea, The mighty curtain of the sky.
# Songs of the Road/A Woman's Love

A WOMAN'S LOVE
I am not blind—I understand; I see him loyal, good, and wise, I feel decision in his hand, I read his honour in his eyes. Manliest among men is he With every gift and grace to clothe him; He never loved a girl but me— And I—I loathe him!—loathe him!
The other! Ah! I value him Precisely at his proper rate, A creature of caprice and whim, Unstable, weak, importunate. ​His thoughts are set on paltry gain— You only tell me what I see— I know him selfish, cold and vain; But, oh! he's all the world to me!
# Songs of the Road/By The North Sea

BY THE NORTH SEA
Her cheek was wet with North Sea spray, We walked where tide and shingle meet; The long waves rolled from far away To purr in ripples at our feet. And as we walked it seemed to me That three old friends had met that day, The old, old sky, the old, old sea, And love, which is as old as they.
Out seaward hung the brooding mist We saw it rolling, fold on fold, And marked the great Sun alchemist Turn all its leaden edge to gold. ​Look well, look well, oh lady mine, The grey below, the gold above, For so the greyest life may shine All golden in the light of love.
# Searchlights on Health/Producing Boys or Girls at Will

PRODUCING BOYS OR GIRLS AT WILL.
1. CAN THE SEXES BE PRODUCED AT WILL?—This question has been asked in all ages of the world. Many theories have been advanced, but science has at last replied with some authority. The following are the best known authorities which this age of science has produced.
2. THE AGRICULTURAL THEORY.—The agricultural theory as it may be called, because adopted by farmers, is that impregnation occurring within four days of the close of the female monthlies produces a girl, because the ovum is yet immature; but that when it occurs after the fourth day from its close, gives a boy, because this egg is now mature; whereas after about the eighth day this egg dissolves and passes off, so that impregnation is thereby rendered impossible, till just before the mother's next monthly.—Sexual Science.
3. QUEEN BEES LAY FEMALE EGGS FIRST, and male after wards. So with hens; the first eggs laid after the tread give females, the last males. Mares shown the stallion late in their periods drop horse colts rather than fillies.—Napheys.
4. IF YOU WISH FEMALES, give the male at the first sign of heat; if males, at its end.—Prof. Thury.
5. ON TWENTY-TWO SUCCESSIVE OCCASIONS I desired to have heifers, and succeeded in every case. I have made in all twenty-nine experiments, after this method, and succeeded in every one, in producing the sex I desired.—A Swiss Breeder.
6. THIS THURY PLAN has been tried on the farms of the Emperor of the French with unvarying success.
7. CONCEPTION IN THE FIRST HALF of the time between the menstrual periods produces females, and males in the latter.—London Lancet.
8. INTERCOURSE in from two to six days after cessation of the menses produces girls, in from nine to twelve, boys.—Medical Reporter.
THE MOST MALE POWER and passion creates boys; female girls. This law probably causes those agricultural facts just cited thus: Conception right after menstruation give girls, because the female is then the most impassioned; later, boys, because her wanting sexual warmth leaves him the most vigorous. Mere sexual excitement, a wild, fierce, furious rush of passion, is not only not sexual vigor, but in its inverse ratio; and a genuine insane fervor caused by weakness; just as a like nervous excitability indicates weak nerves instead of strong. Sexual power is deliberate, not wild; cool, not impetuous; while all false excitement diminishes effectiveness.—Fowler.
# Searchlights on Health/Practical Rules for Bathing

PRACTICAL RULES FOR BATHING.
1. Bathe at least once a week all over, thoroughly. No one can preserve his health by neglecting personal cleanliness. Remember, "Cleanliness is akin to Godliness."
2. Only mild soap should be used in bathing the body.
3. Wipe quickly and dry the body thoroughly with a moderately coarse towel. Rub the skin vigorously.
4. Many people have contracted severe and fatal diseases by neglecting to take proper care of the body after bathing.
5. If you get up a good reaction by thorough rubbing in a mild temperature, the effect is always good.
6. Never go into a cold room, or allow cold air to enter the room until you are dressed.
7. Bathing in cold rooms and in cold water is positively injurious, unless the person possesses a very strong and vigorous constitution, and then there is great danger of laying the foundation of some serious disease.
8. Never bathe within two hours after eating. It injures digestion.
9. Never bathe when the body or mind is much exhausted. It is liable to check the healthful circulation.
10. A good time for bathing is just before retiring. The morning hour is a good time also, if a warm room and warm water can be secured.
11. Never bathe a fresh wound or broken skin with cold water; the wound absorbs water, and causes swelling and irritation.
12. A person not robust should be very careful in bathing; great care should be exercised to avoid any chilling effects.
