Google
This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing tliis resource, we liave taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.
+ Refrain fivm automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attributionTht GoogXt "watermark" you see on each file is essential for in forming people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liabili^ can be quite severe.

Full little knowest thou that hast not tride,
What hell it la in suing long to bide :
To loose good dayes, that might be better spent ;
To wast long nights in pensive discontent ;
To speed to-daj, to be put back to-morrow ;
To feed on hope, to pine with feare and sorrow.
To fret thy sonle with crosses and with cares ;
To eate thy heart through comfortlesse dispaires ;
To fawne, to crowche, to waite, to ride, to ronne.

Where eyes did once inhabit, there were crept.

I have touched the highest point of all my greatness :
And, from that fall meridian of my glory,
I haste now to my setting : I shall fall
Like a bright exhalation in the evening,
And no man see me more. Ibid.

Farewell ! a long farewell, to all my greatness !
This is the state of man : to-day he puts forth
The tender leaves of hopes ; to-morrow blossoms.
And bears his blushing honours thick upon him ;
The third day comes a frost, a killing frost,
And, when he thinks, good easy man, full surely
His greatness b a-ripening, nips his root,
And then he falls, as I do. I have ventured,
Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders.
This many summers in a sea of glory,
But far beyond my depth : my high-blown pride
At length broke under me and now has left me,
Weary and old with service, to the mercy
Of a rude stream, that must forever hide me.
Vain pomp and glory of this world, I hate ye :
I feel my heart new opened. O, how wretched
Is that poor man that hangs on princes' favours I
There is, betwixt that smile we would aspire to.
That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,
More pangs and fears than wars or women have :

The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contomeljy
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office and the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
W'hen he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin ? who would fardels ^ bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life.
But that the dread of something after death.
The undiscovered country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of ?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all ;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,

labour what to speak, as to find what to leave un-
spoken. Rich soils are often to be weeded.

Of dreams that wave before the half-shut eye ;
And of gay castles in the clouds that pass,
For ever flushing round a summer sky :
There eke the soft delights, that witchingly
Instil a wanton sweetness through the breast.
And the calm pleasures, always hovered nigh ;
But whate'er smacked of noyance, or unrest.
Was far, far off expelled from this delicious nest

Did you ever hear of Captain Wattle ?

into the triangular, and a square person has squeezed
himself into the round hole. The officer and the
office, the doer and the thing done, seldom fit so
exactly that we can say they were almost made for

True love 's the gift which God has given
To man alone beneath the heaven :
It is not fantasy's hot fire,
Whose wishes, soon as granted, fl j ;
It liveth not in fierce desire,
With dead desire it doth not die ;
It is the secret sympathy,
The silver link, the silken tie,
Which heart to heart, and mind to mind,
In body and in soul can bind.
Lay of the Last Minttrel, Canto v. Btanza 13.
Breathes there the man, with soul so dead.
Who never to himself hath said.
This is my own, my native land I
Whose heart hath ne'er within him burned^
As home his footsteps he hath turned
From wandering on a foreign strand ?
If such there breathe, go, mark him well ;
For him no minstrel raptures swell ;
High though his titles, proud his name.
Boundless his wealth as wish can claim, —
Despite those titles, power, and pelf,
The wretch, concentred all in self,
Living, shall forfeit fair renown,
And, doubly dying, shall go down
To the vile dust, from whence he sprung,

So little done, such things to be.

All is lost save honour.
It was from the imperial camp near Paria, that Francis the
First, before leaving for Pizdghettone, wrote to his mother
the memorable letter which, thanks to tradition, has become
altered to the form of this sublime laconism : *' Madame, tout
est perdu fors Thonneur."
The true expression is, " Madame, poor vous fa! re savoir comme
se porte le reste de mon infortune, de toutes choses ne m'est
demeur^ que I'honneur et la vie qui est sauv^." — Martin,
HUtoire de France^ Tom. viii.
The correction of this expression was first made by Sismondi,
Vol, xvi. pp. 241, 242. The letter itself is printed entire in
Dulaure's HUtoire de Paris: "Four vous avertir comment
se porte le ressort de mon infortune, de toutes choses ne m'est
demeur^ que Phonneur et la vie, — qui est sauv^.'*

A man is said to be art and part of a crime when he contrives

those who commit the crime, although he does not put his own
hand to the actual execution of it. — Scott, Tales of a Grand'

Before you could say Jack Robinson.
This current phrase is said to be derived from a hnmoroixs song
bv Hudson, a tobacconist in Shoe Lane. London. He was a
professional song-writer and vocalist, who used to be engaged
to sing at supper-rooms and theatrical houses.
A warke it ys as easie to be done
As tys to save Jacke ! robys on.
An old Play, cited by Halliwell, Arch, Dictionary.
Begging the question.
This is a common logical faWacy, peiitto principii f and the first
explanation of the phrase is to be found in Aristotle's Topica,
viii. 13, where the five ways of begging the question are set
forth. The earliest English work in which the expression is
found is The Arte of Logike plainlie »tt forth in our Engliik
Tongue^ ij-c. 1584.
Beginning of the end.
Foumicr asserts, on the written authority of Talleyrand^s brother,
that the only breviarj* used by the ex-bishop was VImprovi'
tateur Fran^i*^ a compilation of anecdotes and bon~mot»^ in
twenty-one duodecimo volumes. "Whenever a good thing was
wandering about in search of a parent, he adopted it; amongst
others, **C*est le commencement de la fin.*'
To show our simple skill.
That is the true beginning of our end.

Better to wear out than to mst oat
When a friend told Biehop Cnmberland (1683-1718) he would
wear himself out by his inceataat application, '*It it better,"
replied the Bishop, "to wear out than to mst oat." — Bishop

See Boswell's Tour to the Hthridu^ p. 18, note.
Beware of a man of one book.
When St. Thomas Aqninas was asked in what manner a man
might best become learned, he answered, **By reading one
book.*' The homo uniut lihri is indeed proverbially formi-
dable to all conversatioxud iSgurantee. — Southey, The Doctor^
p. 164.
Bitter end.
This phrase is nearly without meaning as it is used. The tme
phrase, "better end,*' is used properly to designate a crisis,
or the moment of an extremity. When, in a gale, a vessel
has paid out all her cable, her cable has run out to the " better
end," — the end which is secured within the vessel and little
used. Robinson Crusoe, in describing the terrible storm in
Yarmouth Roads, says, "We rode vrith two anchors ahead,
and the cables veered out to the better end."
Blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church.
Plures efBcimur, quoties raetimur a vobis; semen est sanguis

quotation from St. Jerome: "Est sanguis martyrum semina-
rium Ecclesiarum.*'

Cohesive power of public plunder.
This phraAC has grown out of words used by John C. Cmlhonn in
a speech, May 27, 1836: '* A power has risen up in the gov-
ernment greater than the people themselves, consisting of
many and various and powerful interests, combined into one
mass, and held together by the cohesive power of the vast sur-
plus in the banks.'*
Consistency, thou art a jewel.
Thi.4 is one of those popular sayings, like ** Be good, and you
will be happy,** or " Virtue is its own reward,'* that, like
Topsy, ** never toas born, only jist growed." From the earli-
est times it has been the popular tendency to call this or that
cardinal virtue, or bright and shining excellence, a jewel, by
way of emphasis. For example, lago says: —
** Good nam€f in man or woman, dear my lord.
Is the immediate yetre/ of their souls.**
Shakespeare elsewhere calls experience a jewel; Miranda says
her moflesty is the Jewel in her dower; and in ^1// '# Well that
Ends Well, Diana terms her chastity the Jewel of her house. —
R. A. Wight.
O discretion, thou art a jewel. — From The Skylark j a Collection

Hobson*s choice.
Tobias Ilobson was the first man in England that let out hack-

stable, where there was a great choice, but he obliged him to

even' customer was alike well served according to his chance,
from whence it became a proverb, when what ought to be your

Ridicule the test of truth.

The island of Sardinia, consisting chiefly of marshes or of moun-

expression inrortrfirirai tA ¥9vpa rS»v irpay^drw^ **the sin-

{Lib, iv. c. 7, § 3), represents that philosopher as saying
rhv irKovrov *Xvai ytvpa irpayfidrw, **that riches were the
sinews of business," or, as the phrase may mean, *'of the
state." Referring, perhaps, to this maxim of Bion, Plutarch
says in his Life of Clcomcnes (c. 27), **Hc who first called
money the sinews of the state seems to have said this with
special reference to irar." Accordingly, we find money called
expressly tA vcOpa tow xoX^/iov, "the sinews of war," in

When at Rome, do as the Romans do.
St. Augustine was in the habit of dining upon Saturday as upon
Sunday ; but, being puzzled with the diilerent practices then
prevailing (for they had begun to fast at Rome on Saturday),

did not fast on Saturday, and the answer of the Milan saint
was this: ** When I am here, I do not fast on Saturday; when
at Rome, I do fast on Saturdiay."

STAMFOKl) STBEET AXO CHABIKO CKUbb.
RS. GEORGE ROUTLEDCE & SONS believe that there
gland a very large public demand for good books. They
to be lar^e enouEh to justiry ihe production of a uniform
very cheap volumes, advancing, in course of time, towards
ation of a Universal Library that shall contain all the
most significant books in the world, of all times outside the
Copyright, and of all countries, so far as such books can be
itten in or rendered into English. The Publishers wish to
Jie best books at the cheapest rate— that Is to say, In bound
printed volumesof 320 pagesforaShilling. The Editor
they have looked for aid in working out their purpose shares
1 in the demand for easiest access to all forms of the world's
and all forms of opinion that have helped to shape the lives
He agrees therefore to be responsible for the selection of
bhshed in this way, and he will issue each of them with a
roduction, giving some account of its writer and some indica-
( place in literature.
i sequence of these volumes, as first published, there will be
order in disorder that aims at variety. As they multiply
! shelves, they will admit of any classili cation that most
\mi possessor. There will be in them the best Plays and
je best works of Fiction, the best books of Travel, Histories,
ies — all that is most characteristic in the speculations of
ly and of political economy, the books of most mark in the
it seek to deiine or purify man's sense of his relation towards
Bey may be arranged in sequence of time, from Confucius to
!, or grouped into nations, with Homer to head the Greeks,
le Italians, Shakespeare the English, and so forth. The
ixwics is one that should outlive its present Editor, if English
re really agreed that, for as br as lies within the compass of
58
their own language, it is good to have in a Home LIbrarfMdbcilH
neat and compact as the modem art of publishing can make it^ idl the
best books of the world.
The first six books of the Univepsal Library will be taken from
writers of five nations — England, France, Germany, Italy and Spain
The series will begin cheerfully with Sheridan's Plays, because they
are sure of an easy welcome from all readers. France will be repre-
sented, not by direct translation, but by a volume of the plays of
English writers, Dryden, Wycherley, Fielding, plays such as ** Colley
Gibber's- Nonjuror,'' that have been founded upon plays of Moli^
Literature of Spain will be represented by Southey's version of the
"Chronicles of the Cid " ; of Germany, by Goethe's "Faust " ; of Italy,
by Machiavelli's ** Pnnce." A volume of Rabelais wiU be also within
the number of the first half-dozen books. As the series advances, it is
meant gradually to include a full representation of the English Drama,
from the "Miracle Plays" downward; the most significant books
upon the theory of Government and on Political Economy, such as
Hobbes's ** Leviathan," Locke's " Essays of Civil Government," the
chief writings of Jeremy Bentham, and other books that are more
quoted than read. There will be Hooker's "Ecclesiastical Polity."
There wiU be books also of the Puritans whom it opposed. In Poetry
and Fiction, many writers who now live chiefly as names will come
back into fellowship, and the old coinages of wit again be current
Sometimes the work of different writers wiU be placed within one
volume in significant juxtaposition. Thus, produced at the same time,
and dealing in very different ways with the same thought of the time,
Johnson's ** Rasselas " will be associated with Voltaire's " Candide.'
The text of the volumes published in the Universal Library wiD
be carefully printed from the copies indicated by the Editor, and it
will be printed without annotation. Whatever explanation may be
given will be found in the Introduction to each book. The length of
each Introduction will depend upon the matter to be introduced ; the
average length will be about four pages. In some volumes, however,
the text will require editmg. Old writers will be printed as we print
Shakespeare for common use, without suffering the swift passage of
thought from mind to mind to be retarded by these obsolete forms of
spelling which are no part of the thought of man, except when he is
studying words as their historian. In literature words are but symbols,
incomplete at best, of the stirrings of a life within life, compared to
which tiie air itself is in its movement gross and palpable. As far,
therefore, as sense and rhythm allow, old spelling will, throughout this
Library, be modernised. Also, it is the Editor's intention to respect
that change in the convention of society which excludes now from our
common acquaintance certain plainnesses of thought and speech once
honestly meant and honestly allowed. By a little cars in this respect,
much of the best literature can, with slight injury to its best features,
be rescued from neglect. The use and beauty of old monuments are,
surely, separable from their dust and dirt.
No writer has ever felt of his own book that it attained his highest
aim, but that has not been reason for regretting that it had an aim.
The Universal Library will fall short of its mark, but it will not be
the worse for having such a purpose as is here described. Considering,
also, what a staff of writers it will have, and that in each book the
Editor restricts his own talk to four pages, its volumes cannot easiN
be dulL

EDITION DE LUXE OF SHAKESPEARE.
Messrs. George Routledgb and Sons, who have produced more
Editions of the Works of Shakespeare than any other publishers, have
issued an entirely Nav Edition, which they believe to be the most beautitut
£dition of Shakespeare ever issued.
It is completed in Fifteen Volumes, imperial 8vo., uniform in size and
style with the Edition de Luxe of Dickens's Works.
This Edition is limited to One Thousand Copies, each of which is
numbered. As each Volume was printed the Type was distributed.
The Text is that of Mr. Howard Staunton, *• Certainly one of the
best texts we have" (Athenaum, March 12, 1881). It is printed in large,
dear type,, on a paper of the finest quality, made especially for this work.
The illustrations, 824 in number, by Sir John Gilbert, R A., were
printed from the Original Wood Blocks, on real China Paper, by Clay,
Sons, and Taylor, and mounted in the Text. Sir John Gilbert* R.A.,
Aas drawn a New Portrait of Shakespeare for this Edition,
Specimens of the Illustrations and Type will be sent on application.
