OLD BOOKS.

We pass through the book realm as
we pass through the social world. The
friends first made are the truest we
ever have; the books first read, remain
the most valued. We choose them for
what they are in themselves, not for
the use they may be to us. We love
them truly and deeply. We sympa-
thize with the characters they portray.
We live in the lives they reveal.
Later we become critical of the style
of writer. We pay such attention
to the manner that we almost lose
sight of the matter of the volume.
Thus, our education fails of its ends.
In literature as in nature, .'the life is
more than meat and the body more
than raiment.n The Individuality of
an author is Of more soeight than the
facts he can give; the thought IS Of more
importance than. the language ia chich
1t Is clothed.
Byron is not so polished scholor as
Pope, but he is greater genius. In his
famous apostrophe to the ocean, he may
smash the rules of rhetoric all to..smith-
Greens. but the apostrophe remains
sublime. The mans boundless for the
boundless sea; his passion for the great
deep; his appreciation of its power, its
majesty, its grandeur, more than
compensate for one or two mixed
metaphors
Roll on thou dark and deep blue ocean
roll
Such as creations dawn beheld thou rollest
now.
The broad thought gives breadth to
your judgement. You see the. gray
waste of waters that rolled over this
globe in the beginning of
the world, and you cannot pay atten-
tion to the grammar.
Mrs. Browning's intense spirituality |
makes her greater poet than Tenny-
son, even though her verse is faulty |
and his is perfect in form.
''She would not lose the poets fire
for anguish of the burning" Her
personality outweighs his gift
of music. Tennyson's mind received
and masticatcd the best thought of his
age. He absorbed and gave it back to
the world mellowed, softened, en-
riched. The seed fell on good ground
aud 'did yield fruit that sprung up
and increased, and brought forth some
thirty, and some sixty. and some an
hundred fold" But Elizabeth Brown
ing originated ideas. One is artistic.
.he other creative.
Abstract truths, such as death, love,
passed through the fire of
inauguration, and came
,ut chastened. to be wrought into deli
,ate, poetic figures like frosted filagree
work. Such thoughts, Mrs. Browning
lug from the depths of her experience
md gave them to the world just as she
ound them-rough ore, bu. filled with
precious gold.
The books you read without an OBJ
ect are the books that refresh and
trengthen your mind. I
We get no good by being upgenerous
even to book. I,
md calculating profits-so much help, by
so much reading.
is rather when. we gloriously forget our ;
selves, and plunge,
oul forward, headlong into a book pro-
found
for its beauty and salt of truth,
ris then We get the right good from
book"
