The government is now her own;

She vows to take him at his word,
And hopes he will not take it strange
If both should now their stations change
The nymph will have her turn, to be
The tutor; and the pupil he:
Though she already can discern
Her scholar is not apt to learn;
Or wants

The science she designs to teach;
Wherein his genius was below

Gamma would not have had to defend its rights over _gyaphalla_,
constantly almost at blows with Kappa in the debatable land, and _per

indeed it is more dignified than petty
larceny)

Walt Whitman - Leaves of Grass |

' Instead of seeking God in the deserts of time
and space, in exterior immensities, in what he called 'the abstract
void,' he believed that the further he dropped behind him memory of
time and space, reason builded upon sensation, morality founded for the
ordering of the world; and the more he was absorbed in emotion; and,
above all, in emotion escaped from the impulse of bodily longing and
the restraints of bodily reason, in artistic emotion; the nearer did
he come to Eden's 'breathing garden,' to use his beautiful phrase, and
to the
unveiled
face of God.

where through flat Batavia's willowy groves, 520
Or by the lazy Seine, the exile roves;
O'er the curled waters Alpine
measures
swell,
And search the affections to their inmost cell;
Sweet poison spreads along the listener's veins,
Turning past pleasures into mortal pains; [140] 525
Poison, which not a frame of steel can brave,
Bows his young head with sorrow to the grave.

Was with kisses sweet concluded:
And Phyllida, with
garlands
gay,
Was made the lady of the May.

For example, "Crambo" is of extraordinary use to good rhyming, and rhyming is what I have ever
accounted
the very essential of a good poet: And in that notion I am not singular; for the aforesaid Sir Philip Sidney has declared, "That the chief life of modern versifying, consisteth in the like sounding of words, which we call rhyme," which is an authority, either without exception, or above any reply.

More material is available now than formerly
for the critical study of their texts; and it is
impossible
to avoid the
conclusion that their language refers to faults which had actually been
discovered in the monasteries to which they were addressed.
