Of which spire the largeness and age are also opposed exactly
to the chief appearances of modern England, as one feels them
on first returning to it: that marvelous smallness both of houses
and scenery, so that a plowman in the valley has his head on
a level with the tops of all the hills in the neighborhood; and a
house is
organized
into complete establishment — parlor, kitchen,
and all, with a knocker to its door, and a garret window to its
roof, and a bow to its second story-on a scale of twelve feet
wide by fifteen high, so that three such at least would go into
the granary of any ordinary Swiss cottage; and also our serenity
of perfection, our peace of conceit, everything being done that
vulgar minds can conceive as wanting to be done; the spirit of
well-principled housemaids everywhere exerting itself for perpet-
ual propriety and renovation, so that nothing is old, but only
" old-fashioned," and contemporary, as it were, in date and im-
pressiveness, only with last year's bonnets.

Their post; but theirs is merely a chimera,
For they have pass'd life's equinoctial line:

To irrigate the dryness of decline;

And debt, and what not, for their solace sent.

NEARER HOME
O
NE sweetly solemn thought
Comes to me o'er and o'er —
I'm nearer home to-day
Than I ever have been before:
Nearer my Father's house,
Where the many
mansions
be;
Nearer the great white Throne,
Nearer the jasper sea;
Nearer the bound of life,
Where we lay our burdens down;
Nearer leaving the cross,
Nearer wearing the crown!

Luteae violae mihi, luteumque papaver,
Pallentesque cucurbitac, et suave olentia mala;
Uva pampinea rubens educata sub umbra:
Sanguine hanc etiam mihi (sed tacebitis) aram 15
Barbatus linit hirculus, cornipesque capella;
Pro quis omnia
honoribus
haec necesse Priapo
Praestare, et domini hortulum, vineamque tueri.
