# Lenhard v. United States

Supreme Court of the United States
405 U.S. 1013
Lenhard v. United States
Certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
No. 71-5840
In his memorandum for the United States in response to petition for writ of certiorari in this case, filed February 1, 1972, the Solicitor General asserted a position different from that previously asserted by the United States in the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. We therefore grant this petition, vacate the judgment, and remand case to that court for consideration in light of the position now asserted by the Solicitor General.
# Lenin's letter to Gorky

Written in 1912, public domain translation by Andrew Rothstein
Dear A. M.,
We shall shortly send you the resolutions of the Conference. We have finally succeeded—in spite of the liquidationist scoundrels—in reviving the Party and its Central Committee. I hope you will be as glad of this as we are.
Won’t you write a May Day leaflet for us? Or a little leaflet in a similar May Day spirit? Quite a short one, a “heart-warmer”, what do you say? Think of old times, remember 1905, and put down a couple of words, if you have the mind to write. There are two or three illegal printing-presses in Russia, and the Central Committee will republish it, probably, in several tens of thousands of copies. It would be a good thing to gel a revolutionary manifesto like the Tales in Zvezda. I am very, very glad that you are helping Zvezda. We are having a devilish hard job with it—internal and external and financial difficulties are immense—but still we are managing so far.
All the best,
       Lenin
P.S. And Sovremennik has had the sense to die, after all! That was a good deed on its part.

## Annotations

* ↑ Reference is to the resolutions passed by the Sixth (Prague) All-Russia Conference of the R.S.D.L.P. of 1912. The resolutions and “Announcement” concerning the Conference were published in booklet form in Paris in February 1912 by the C.C. of the R.S.D.L.P.
* ↑ an opportunist trend in the R.S.D.L.P. that emerged in the period of reaction following the defeat of the 1905– 07 revolution. The liquidators demanded liquidation of the illegal revolutionary party of the working class and tried to subordinate the working-class movement to bourgeois interests. The Sixth (Prague) All-Russia Conference of the R.S.D.L.P. expelled the liquidators from the Party.
* ↑ Zvezda (The Star)—legal Bolshevik newspaper (December 1910– May 5, 1912). In 1911 and 1912 it published seven stories by Gorky from his Tales of Italy series.
* ↑ Sovremennik (The Contemporary)—literary and political monthly published in St. Petersburg from 1911 to 1915. It was a rallying point for Menshevik liquidators, Socialist-Revolutionaries, Popular Socialists and Left-wing liberals.

# Memoirs of Hyppolite Clairon/Volume 1/Reflections upon the Dramatic Art

REFLECTIONS
UPON
THE DRAMATIC ART.
It is the wish of many that I should write my sentiments relative to an art which I have long professed. It is supposed that the reflections I have made, in order to render myself supportable in the eyes of the public, may be of some use to those who are destined to pursue the same career. Perhaps the public, or, at least, the admirers of theatrical representations, will contemplate with some degree of pleasure the road I have followed, in order to acquire their favour. But re​flection and writing are two such different things; it appears so extraordinary to me to comprehend any thing without the aid of physiognomy, gesture, and speech; I am so diffident of myself; that I tremble as much in taking up the pen as I once did in appearing before the public.—Friendship imposes the task upon me, and my compliant disposition cannot resist. Without any regular plan, perhaps without any system, but certainly without vanity, I am about to trace what I deem necessary to the attainment of this art,—an art much more difficult than it is generally supposed to be.

1880
The Bath
With rosy palms against her bosom pressed,  To stay the shudder that she dreads of old,  Lysidice glides down, till silver-cold The water girdles half her glowing breast: A yellow butterfly in flowery quest  Rifles the roses that her tresses hold:  A breeze comes wandering through the fold on fold Of draperies curtaining her shrine of rest. Soft beauty, like her kindred petals strewed  Along the crystal coolness, there she lies.  What vision gratifies these gentle eyes? She dreams she stands where yesterday she stood — Where, while the whole arena shrieks for blood,  Hot in the sand a gladiator dies.

# Littell's Living Age/Volume 144/Issue 1856/A Folded Leaf

Originally published in Chambers' Journal.
A Folded Leaf
A folded page, old, stained, and blurred,  I found within your book last night. I did not read the dim dark word  I saw in the slow-waning light; So put it back, and left it there, As if in truth I did not care.
Ah! we have all a folded leaf  That in Time's book of long ago We leave: a half-relief  Falls on us when we hide it so. We fold it down, then turn away, And who may read that page to-day?
Not you, my child; nor you, my wife,  Who sit beside my study chair; For all have something in their life  That they, and they alone, may bear — A trifling lie, a deadly sin, A something bought they did not win.
My folded leaf! how blue eyes gleam  And blot the dark-brown eyes I see; And golden curls at evening beam  Above the black locks at my knee! Ah me! that leaf is folded down, And aye for me the locks are brown.
And yet I love them who sit by,  My best and dearest — dearest now. They may not know for what I sigh,  What brings the shadow on my brow. Ghosts at the best; so let them be, Nor come between my life and me.
They only rise at twilight hour;  So light the lamp, and close the blind. Small perfume lingers in the flower  That sleeps that folded page behind. So let it ever folded lie; 'Twill be unfolded when I die.
# Littell's Living Age/Volume 144/Issue 1856/In Arcadia

Originally published in Good Words.
In Arcadia
Dreamy-soft thy lay and tender,  Exile in Australian wild; Happy thou, with power to render  Ditties that might soothe a child.
But, oh, touch not strain that's bolder —  Strain that echoed o'er the hills Of your native land, when older  Days were free from modern ills!
Play for rude content and pleasure;  Waken not the thoughts untold: Let the memory hold the measure  Dimly of the songs of old.
Hark, the bell-bird, sudden sounding,  Fills the pauses of the strain; And the wayward heart goes bounding,  Hearing village bells again!
Still the sheep are resting yonder,  All the land is softly fair; It needs but Pan, with sudden wonder,  To appear, with pan-pipes there.
Alas! but Pan is dead, and only  Exiled shepherds chant the strain; Pipe to pass the day so lonely,  Daring not some songs again.
# Littell's Living Age/Volume 144/Issue 1855/The Mænad's Grave

1880
The Mænad's Grave
The girl who once, on Lydian heights,  Around the sacred grove of pines, Would dance through whole tempestuous nights  Where no moon shines, Whose pipe of lotos featly blown Gave airs as shrill as Cotys' own,
Who, crowned with buds of ivy dark,  Three times drained deep with amorous lips, The wine-fed bowl of willow bark,  With silver tips, Nor sank, nor ceased, but shouted still Like some wild wind from hill to hill,
She lies at last where poplars wave  Their sad gray foliage all day long; The river murmurs near her grave  A soothing song: Farewell, it saith! Her days have done With shouting at the set of sun.

A Love-Song
Like sapphires are those eyes of thine,  Thou loveliest, thou sweetest; And oh! thrice happy is the man,  Whom with true love thou greetest.
Thy heart, it is a diamond,  A beauteous light it showeth, And oh! thrice happy is the man,  For whom with love it gloweth.
Like rubies are those lips of thine,  So perfect in their moulding; And oh! thrice happy is the man,  Who's blest with their beholding.
Oh, could I find that happy man,  As he his pathway wended, Some day, alone, through the green wood  His bliss would soon be ended!
# Littell's Living Age/Volume 144/Issue 1856/Mort d'Arthur

Mort d'Arthur
Three queens were with him when he died, Two staunched the death-wound in his side; But one, more lovely than the rest, Pillowed his head upon her breast.
Was this the shade of Guinevere, Did her sweet voice fall on his ear, Did her sweet lips of rarest mould Press the king's hand that grew so cold?
Alas! it was not Guinevere, England's fair mistress was not near; The noblest woman of her race In Almesbury had veiled her face.
Perchance this young queen was Elaine, By Launcelot's desertion slain, Who long had dwelt in Paradise, But came to close King Arthur's eyes.
'Twas thus that England's monarch died, Three queens were with him at his side, But Guinevere, fair Guinevere, Came not to weep above his bier.

# Mary Louise and the Liberty Girls/Foreword

JUST A WORD
The object of this little story is not especially to encourage loyalty and devotion to one's country, for these are sentiments firmly enshrined in the hearts of all true American girls. It is rather intended to show what important tasks girls may accomplish when spurred on by patriotism, and that none is too humble to substantially serve her country.
Organizations of Liberty Girls are possible in every city and hamlet in America, and are effective not only in times of war but in times of peace, for always their Country needs them—always there is work for their busy hands.
One other message the story hopes to carry—the message of charity towards all and malice towards none. When shadows are darkest, those who can lighten the gloom are indeed the blessed ones.

WHEREAS by an Act passed in the thirty-seventh year of the reign of his present Majesty provision is made for empowering his Majesty, his heirs and successors, to shorten the time required for giving notice of the meeting of Parliament for the dispatch of business in the case of a prorogation of Parliament: And whereas it is expedient that a like power should be given to his Majesty, his heirs and successors, in cases of the adjournment of Parliament: Be it therefore enacted by the King's most excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the lords spiritual and temporal, and commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, that in all cases where both Houses of Parliament shall stand adjourned for more than fourteen days from the day of the date of the proclamation herein-after mentioned, it shall and may be lawful for his Majesty, his heirs and successors, to issue his and their royal proclamation, by and with the advice of his and their privy council, thereby declaring that the said Parliament shall meet on a day, being not less than fourteen days from the day of the date of such proclamation, and the Houses of Parliament shall thereupon stand adjourned to the day and place declared in such proclamation, notwithstanding any previous adjournment of the Houses of Parliament to any longer day, and notwithstanding any former law, usage or custom to the contrary.
