MARK TWAIN on THE SPHyNx.-
the lecture of Mark Twain. that OF the
mysterious Sphynx thrilled his audirnce
with admiration.
The great face WAS so sad. so earI-
est. so longing. SO patient. There WAS
dignity not of earth in its mien. and
in its countenance such as never any =
thing human wore. IL was stone. but it
seemed sentiment II ever image of
stone thought, it was thinking. IL was
looking toward the verge of the land
seape, but looking at nothing-nothing
bat Distance and vacancy. IL was look
ing over and beyond everything of the
present, and far into the Past Ii WAS
gazing over the ocean OF time over
Iiles of century-waves, which. further
nearer together, and blended at last in
one unbroken tide, away toward the
horizon OF a remote antiquity.
Ii wns thinking of the wars of depart
ed ages-of the empires it had seen cre-
2ted and destroyed-of the nations
whose birth il had witnessed, whose
progress i; had watched, whose annihi.
lation il had noted-of the Joy and sor-
S'Ns VIC IlIc utdtii, tht
ard decay, of five thousand slow revolv-
ing years.
Ii was the type of an attribute OF man
of faculty of his heart and brain. II
was Memory-Retrospec wrought
into visible, tangible form. All who
know the pstLos there is in memories
Of days that are accomplished and faces
that have vani>hed-albeit only n tri-
fling score vi years gone by, will have
some Appreciation of the pathos that
dwelis in those grave eyes that lool. So
steadtastiy back upon the things they
suew before History WAS born-before
VRdltion bad being-,hings that were,
and !orns shat moved. in a vague era
shat even Poetry and Romance scarce
knew of-and rassed one by one away
and left the stony dreamer solitary in
the midst of a stTangr new age and uu-
cOmprehended scenes
The Sphynx Is grand in its loneliness:
il is Imposing in its magnitude: il is i'm
pressive in the mystery which hangs
over It's story. There is that in the over
shadowing majesty OF this eternal figure
ot s5ore, with its accusing memory OF
the deeds of all ages, that reveals Ia
one something ni what he shall feel
when he stan1s at last in the presence
of God i'-tIereiusd H. Fai.
