Master, ever faster fly
Now the vivid seasons by;
Now the glittering Western land
Twins the day-lit Eastern Strand;
Now white Freedom's sea-bird wing
Roams the Sea of Everything;
Now the freemen to and fro
Bind the tyrant sand and snow,
Snatching Death's hot bolt ere hurled,
Flash new Life about the world,
Sun the secrets of the hills,
Shame the gods' slow-grinding mills,
Prison Yesterday in Print,
Read To-morrow's weather-hint,
Haste before the halting Time,
Try new virtue and new crime,
Mould new faiths, devise new creeds,
Run each road that frontward leads,
Driven by an Onward-ache,
Scorning
souls that circles make.

Of creatures that can fly and are bloodless some are coleopterous
or sheath-winged, for they have their wings in a sheath or shard, like
the cockchafer and the dung-beetle; others are sheathless, and of
these latter some are dipterous and some tetrapterous: tetrapterous,
such as are
comparatively
large or have their stings in the tail,
dipterous, such as are comparatively small or have their stings in
front.

It
surprised
all
the world to see him constantly sup with Socrates,
take with him his exercises, and lodge in the same
tent with him; and though Socrates had many rivals,
yet he kept possession of the heart of Alcibiades,
by the excellence of his genius, and the pathetic turn
of his conversation, which often drew tears from his
young companion.
