A COUNTRY LIFE:
TO HIS BROTHER, MR THOMAS HERRICK
Thrice, and above, blest, my soul's half, art thou,
In thy both last and better vow;
Could'st leave the city, for exchange, to see
The country's sweet simplicity;
And it to know and practise, with intent
To grow the sooner innocent;
By studying to know virtue, and to aim
More at her nature than her name;
The last is but the least; the first doth tell
Ways less to live, than to live well:--
And both are known to thee, who now canst live
Led by thy conscience, to give
Justice to soon-pleased nature, and to show
Wisdom and she together go,
And keep one centre; This with that conspires
To teach man to confine desires,
And know that riches have their proper stint
In the
contented
mind, not mint;
And canst instruct that those who have the itch
Of craving more, are never rich.

Of wind grant way to great ships of war,
And when the nightingale, in forest far,
Renews her grievance against Tereus:
Now, when the meadows and when the flowers
With thousands upon thousands of colours
Paint the breast of the earth so bright all round,

calmly before him at the waning sky, glad of the cool of the evening
and of the faint yellow glow which hid the tiny flame
kindling
upon his
cheek.

Mais peu à peu à force de vivre avec Albertine, les chaînes
que j'avais forgées moi-même, je ne pouvais plus m'en dégager,
l'habitude d'associer la personne d'Albertine au sentiment qu'elle
n'avait pas inspiré me faisait pourtant croire qu'il était
spécial
à
elle, comme l'habitude donne à la simple association d'idées entre
deux phénomènes, à ce que prétend une certaine école philosophique,
la force, la nécessité illusoires d'une loi de causalité.

a youthful wight 780
Smiling beneath a coral diadem,
Out-sparkling sudden like an upturn'd gem,
Appear'd, and, stepping to a beauteous corse,
Kneel'd down beside it, and with
tenderest
force
Press'd its cold hand, and wept,--and Scylla sigh'd!

However, when the senate had declared
Galba to be an enemy to his country, he affected to
despise the danger, and,
attempting
to be merry on it,
said to his friends, ' I have long wanted a pretence to
raise money, and this will furnish me with an excel-
lent one.

Translated Poetry |

My
mother, who knew life as a whole, used often to quote to me Goethe's
lines--written by Carlyle in a book he had given her years ago, and
translated by him, I fancy, also:--
'Who never ate his bread in sorrow,
Who never spent the
midnight
hours
Weeping and waiting for the morrow,--
He knows you not, ye heavenly powers.
