Autrefois, je ne m’attardais pas dans le bois
consacré
qui
l’entourait, car, avant de monter lire, j’entrais dans le petit
cabinet de repos que mon oncle Adolphe, un frère de mon grand-père,
ancien militaire qui avait pris sa retraite comme commandant, occupait
au rez-de-chaussée, et qui, même quand les fenêtres ouvertes
laissaient entrer la chaleur, sinon les rayons du soleil qui
atteignaient rarement jusque-là, dégageait inépuisablement cette odeur
obscure et fraîche, à la fois forestière et ancien régime, qui fait
rêver longuement les narines, quand on pénètre dans certains pavillons
de chasse abandonnés.

Emerson - Poems |

As when from
separate
stars two beams
Unite to form one tender ray:
As when two sweet but shadowy dreams
Explain each other in the day:
So may these two dear hearts one light
Emit, and each interpret each.

Hence it is probable that the selection
of Aristotle, who had not yet appeared before the world as an
independent thinker, to take part in the education of the Crown Prince
was due less to personal
reputation
than to the connection of his family
with the court, taken together with his own position as a pupil of
Plato, whose intervention in the public affairs of Sicily had caused the
Academy to be regarded as the special home of scientific interest in
politics and jurisprudence.

Aristotle by A. E. Taylor |

And the book lay open, and my thought flew from it, taking from it
A vibration and
impulsion
to an end beyond its own,
As the branch of a green osier, when a child would overcome it,
Springs up freely from his claspings and goes swinging in the sun.
