The strictly Neo- Eurasianist aspect of Dugin's ideas--his best- known "trademark" in Russian society today-- is in tune with some of Rodina's geopolitical conceptions, but this
concurrence
is actually founded on the anti-Westernism that is common to both, not on a shared vision of Russia as a Eurasian power.

And he hoped it would not be
imputed as a crime to him, if he had taken more
pains than other men in that important service of
his majesty concerning his foreign plantations, which
he did not think had been enough taken to heart :
and if his desire and
readiness
to take any pains, or
give any assistance to the advancement of that ser-
vice, had induced many persons to apply themselves
to him on those occasions, he hoped it should not be
charged upon him as over-activity, or ambition to
engross more business into his hands than he was
entitled to ; for which he had this excuse to make
for himself, that he found the pains he took to be
acceptable to his majesty.

Moreover: as
too serious individuals and nations stand in need of trivial
relaxations; as others, too volatile and excitable require onerous,
weighty ordeals to render them entirely healthy: should not we, the more
intellectual men of this age, which is swept more and more by
conflagrations, catch up every cooling and extinguishing
appliance

can find that we may always remain as self contained, steady and calm as
we are now, and thereby perhaps serve this age as its mirror and self

Held in a lunar synthesis,

now is the pleasant time,
The cool, the silent, save where silence yields
To the night-warbling Bird, that now awake 40
Tunes sweetest his love-labor'd song; now reignes
Full Orb'd the Moon, and with more pleasing light
Shadowie sets off the face of things; in vain,
If none regard; Heav'n wakes with all his eyes,
Whom to behold but thee, Natures desire,
In whose sight all things joy, with ravishment
Attracted
by thy beauty still to gaze.

Lascia quel morto, e
Balisarda
stringe
verso uno stuol che più si vede appresso;
e contra a questo e contra a quel si spinge,
ed a chi tronco ed a chi il capo ha fesso:
a chi nel petto, a chi nel fianco tinge
il brando, e a chi l'ha ne la gola messo:
taglia busti, anche, braccia, mani e spalle;
e il sangue, come un rio, corre alla valle.

perienced such changes of fortune, carouse and indulge
his transports, embracing and saluting every one he
meets, we must acknowlege that
unexpected
joy raises
greater tumults in an unbalanced mind, and oversets it
sooner, than either fear or sorrow.
