'Here comes Parker, the Orson of parsons, a man 730
Whom the Church undertook to put under her ban
(The Church of Socinus, I mean),--his opinions
Being So-(ultra)-cinian, they shocked the Socinians:
They believed--faith, I'm puzzled--I think I may call
Their belief a believing in nothing at all,
Or something of that sort; I know they all went
For a general union of total dissent:
He went a step farther; without cough or hem,
He frankly avowed he
believed
not in them;
And, before he could be jumbled up or prevented, 740
From their orthodox kind of dissent he dissented.

| Question: |
can you summarise this book in 500 words? |
| Answer: |
This text seems to be a guide to strategically determining probable outcomes in situations of power or battle, particularly between two sovereigns or armies. It proposes seven key considerations which include measuring the extent of adherence to the Moral Law of the two sovereigns; the general's abilities; access to celestial and terrestrial advantages; enforcement of discipline; strength of the army; level of officers and soldiers' training; and constancy in rewards and punishments within each army. It implies that conclusions drawn from these considerations can be used to predict victory or defeat. The text also suggests a strong belief in the efficacy of its advice, asserting that any general who follows its guidance will achieve victory. It implies the general should, therefore, be kept in a position of command. |

What qualities or experiences might have led to someone being recognized as capable of handling an army and subsequently being appointed as a general? |
| Answer: |
The passage suggests that someone would be recognized as capable of handling an army and subsequently appointed as a general if they demonstrated knowledge of how to manage troops and translate words into action. Additionally, proving their prowess through successful military campaigns, spreading their fame amongst other influential entities, and sharing in the might of a king also seem to be influential factors in such an appointment. |

| Guess: |

| Question: |
Why humanity is the first instance? |
| Answer: |
Soldiers must be treated with humanity in the first instance because it lays the foundation for a disciplined and effective military force. It enables the establishment of a mutually beneficial relationship between the general and his soldiers, where the soldiers grow attached to the general thereby becoming submissive. However, this approach must be balanced with strict enforcement of discipline to ensure the soldiers' functionality and the overall victory. |

What is the context in which the phrase "Poor comfort!" is being used? |
| Answer: |
The phrase "Poor comfort!" is used in the context of a conversation about a man, presumably Dixon, who appears to favor music more than love and has a greater sensitivity to sound than to personal feelings. This man seems to prefer Miss Campbell's particular friend over Miss Campbell herself. The phrase suggests that the idea of your very particular friend being chosen over you by someone is hardly a comforting thought, hence "Poor comfort!" |

Let us imagine
a rising generation with this undauntedness of
vision, with this heroic desire for the prodigious,
let us imagine the bold step of these dragon-
slayers, the proud and daring spirit with which
they turn their backs on all the effeminate doctrines
of optimism in order “to live resolutely” in the
Whole and in the Full: would it not be necessary
for the tragic man of this culture, with his self-
discipline to earnestness and terror, to desire a
new art, the art of metaphysical comfort,—namely,
tragedy, as the Hellena
belonging
to him, and that
he should exclaim with Faust:
Und sollt' ich nicht, sehnsüchtigster Gewalt,
In's Leben ziehn die einzigste Gestalt?

" These qualities we may
indeed find in many of Coleridge's songs, part Elizabethan, part eighteenth
century, in some of his infantile jingles, his exuberant comic verse (in
which, however, there are many words "which a gentleman would not use"),
and in a poem like "Love," which has suffered as much
indiscriminate
praise
as Raphael's Madonnas, which it resembles in technique and sentiment, and
in its exquisite perfection of commonplace, its _tour de force _of an
almost flawless girlishness.
