# The Nestorians and their Rituals/Volume 1/Notes by the Editor

NOTES BY THE EDITOR.
It would be charitable to add that, in a sect anathematized by his Church, the temporal head of that Church cannot be expected to feel much interest. The Armenian communion, separated rather by a misunderstanding than by heresy, and no doubt shortly to be rejoined to the Orthodox Eastern Church, is on a different footing.
Nevertheless, the Catholicos of Armenia is to all intents and purposes Patriarch, and is usually so called in official documents.
This See is Metropolitical, and ranks eighth among those that are dependent on Constantinople. The official title of the Prelate is, Metropolitan of Dercus and Neochorum; Most Excellent, and Exarch of all the Thracian Bosporus.
This unjust and cruel persecution deserves a longer narration.
The Archbishop of Trebizond ranks twenty-second among those subject to Constantinople. He calls himself, Most Excellent, and Exarch of all Lazica.
In the Report of the Russian Minister of the Interior for 1843, Amâsia is a Metropolitical See of the Armenian Church, with a Suffragan at Sepucha.
No such See now appears in the official notitia of the Church of Constantinople.
A Suffragan of the Metropolitan of Agen.
If this account be correct, the doctrine of the Syro-Jacobites respecting Adam and Eve is singularly different from that of the Eastern Church, by which they are celebrated in the Menæa.
I had already assigned some reasons for not agreeing with this hypothesis of the author's, when, in a later communication, he informed me that he no longer held it.
It need hardly be observed that this letter, though curious enough, is a palpable forgery.
​ A far truer account of these negotiations is given by Le Quien, Oriens Christianus, ii. 159,
On the contrary, the firmness of Alexander VII., in insisting on a full recognition of the Faith of Ephesus, is deserving of something very different from the cold sneer of Mosheim.
This is not exactly correct. Babuæus, a man of bad character, and one of the principal introducers of the Nestorian heresy, who sat from 466 to 486, innovated on the more ancient customs, and permitted marriage to Bishops, and even to the Patriarch: and the innovation remained in force some little time.
Nevertheless, I fear that there is too much truth in Boré's account: though of course it would be denied by Nestorians.
New Sunday, in the Nestorian, as in the orthodox Eastern Church, is the First after Easter.
If this stratagem had been employed by a Jesuit, would it not have met with a severer censure?
Here, clearly, Rome was removing what the author himself allows to be a gross corruption, the hereditary Patriarchate: and it is scarcely fair to impute so low a motive to her missionaries.
# The Nestorians and their Rituals/Volume 1/Notice by the Editor

NOTICE BY THE EDITOR.
The absence of the Author from England rendered it, of course, impossible for him to revise the proofs of the present Work. But it also did more than this. It deprived him of the opportunity of consulting the great writers, who, like Le Quien and Asseman, have treated on the doctrines and history of the Nestorians, and of verifying or modifying his statements by their's.
Under these circumstances, he requested me to take charge of the book through the press. I felt it a privilege to be in any way useful in the publication of so very valuable a contribution to the Ecclesiastical History of the East; but the difficulties of the task have not been inconsiderable.
It is no part of my duty, as Editor, to recommend the work. Still, I cannot but observe, that the second volume treats far more satisfactorily of the rituals and theology of the Nestorians than any book yet published in Europe: while the first supplies a desideratum in Ecclesiastical History, the atrocious massacres of Bedr Khan Beg.
Two remarks, however, I must be allowed to make.
The first is, that Mr. Badger is throughout an advocate for the Nestorians, and (naturally, perhaps laudably) takes an advocate's view of his client's side. Few, I suppose, would be satisfied with the concordat he proposes, in which the character ​and sentiments of Nestorius are left an open question. And in the same way, points of resemblance between the Nestorian and English Communions are discovered with amazing ingenuity.
The second is, that while the schismatical interference of Rome with the Orthodox Eastern Church cannot be too strongly reprobated, the case is widely different in her dealings with the Nestorians. If the Eastern Church makes no efforts among them, why is Rome, any more than ourselves, to be debarred from that duty?
It is to be hoped, however, that English Churchmen will at length awake to the necessity of having an ecclesiastical agent accredited to the East by the synodal voice of the English Church herself. If the following volumes shall in any respect tend to such a result, they will have done yeoman's service both to the Nestorians and to ourselves.

# The New International Encyclopædia/Cavy

Edition of 1905. See also Caviinae on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
CAVY, kā'vĭ (Neo-Lat., Port. cavia, from native Indian word). A small South American rodent of the family Caviidæ, allied to the capybara and the agoutis, exclusively neotropical, and represented familiarly by the guinea-pig. The cavies are restless, semi-noctumal, herbage-eating creatures, dwelling in burrows or crevices, increasing rapidly, and furnishing food for both man and beast throughout the plains and unforested highlands of that continent. The largest species (Cavia patchonica), sometimes called ‘agouti,’ formerly spread throughout the plains of all Argentina, but now nearly extinct, resembles a hare standing upon terrier-like legs; it is a foot in height, and rusty-red in general color. It digs deep burrows of its own, and also occupies those of the vizcacha. The restless cavy (Cavia forcellus), or ‘aperea,’ and Cutler's cavy (Cavia Cutleri) are common in burrowing colonies in the La Plata Valley, and seem to be the ancestors of the guinea-pig, though uniformly colored, the former grayish-brown, the latter nearly black. Other species inhabit rocky places to a considerable altitude in Brazil and Bolivia. Consult Hudson, Naturalist in La Plata (London, 1892). See Guinea-Pig; and Plate of Cavies, etc.

# The New International Encyclopædia/Champmeslé, Marie Desmares

Edition of 1905. See also Marie Champmeslé on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
CHAMPMESLÉ, shäN'mắ'lắ', Marie Desmares (1641-98). A celebrated French actress, born in Rouen, and married in 1667 to Charles Chevillet de Champmeslé, who was an important comedian and playwright of his day. She had already begun her career in the provinces when she came with her husband in 1669 to the Théâtre du Marais in Paris. Her great reputation seems to have started with her acting of Hermione in Andromaque at the Hôtel de Bourgogne the following year. Racine was notoriously captivated by her charms, and the public appreciation of her acting was almost as enthusiastic. She and her husband went over in a few years to the Théâtre Grénégaud, and in 1680 at the union of the companies they became members of the new Comédie Française. During her brilliant career ‘La Champmeslé’ created a large number of the famous rôles, among them Bérénice, Ariane, Phèdre, Vénus in Les amours de Vénus et d'Adonis, Atalide in Bajazet, Monime in Mithridate, Iphigénie in Iphigénie en Aulide, and the same character in Oreste et Pylade. She left the stage, in the vain attempt to restore her health at Anteuil, where she died.

# The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman/Volume 5/Chapter 30

CHAP. XXX.
———No,—I think I have advanced nothing, replied my father, making answer to a question which Yorick had taken the liberty to put to him,—I have ​advanced nothing in the Tristrapædia, but what is as clear as any one proposition in Euclid.—Reach me, Trim, that book from off the scrutoir:—it has oft times been in my mind, continued my father, to have read it over both to you, Yorick, and to my brother Toby, and I think it a little unfriendly in myself, in not having done it long ago:—shall we have a short chapter or two now,—and a chapter or two hereafter, as occasions serve; and so on, till we get through the whole? My uncle Toby and Yorick made the obeisance which was proper; and the corporal, though he was not included in the compliment, laid his hand upon his breast, and made his bow at the same time.—The company smiled. Trim, quoth my father, has paid the full price for staying out the entertainment.—He did not seem to relish the play, replied Yorick.—'Twas a Tomfool-battle, an' please your reverence, of ​captain Tripet's and that other officer, making so many summersets, as they advanced;—the French come on capering now and then in that way,—but not quite so much.
My uncle Toby never felt the consciousness of his existence with more complacency than what the corporal's, and his own reflections, made him do at that moment;—he lighted his pipe,—Yorick drew his chair closer to the table,—Trim snuff'd the candle,—my father stir'd up the fire,—took up the book,—cough'd twice, and begun.
