Of crosscuts and entries and the I'M

and echo is a silence that is complete,
but as one becomes accustomed to the
silence through long hours of solitary
work sounds become audible that
would escape an ear less trained. The
trickling murmur of the gas, the spat-

by some mysterious force from a

Ing and breaking Of stratum far up

"The Lusiad" is one of the noblest
records ever written of national glory
and success. Camoens, its gifted au-
thor, determined to do for Portugal
what Homer had done for Greece. The
great poem was written in the six
teenth century, which has been called
the heroic age Of Portugal, and its
main feature is the rounding of the
Cape Of Good Hope by Vasco da Cana,
while a most interesting episode Is
the browning after death Of Inez de
Castro as queen Of Portugal. The
Lusiad" took its name from Lusius,
who was said to have founded Lisbon.
Its author was born about 1920. and
his career, which began brilliantly,
was blighted by the death Of broken
heart Of the lady Of his love, for whose
sake he was banished from the land
He wrote '"The Luslad" in his Danish
ment and was recalled in 1911, losing
on the way all his property except his
poem. Pensioned at first by the king,
this great epic poet of Portugal died
In great poverty in 1870, when his
patron was also dead
