DRYDEN , JOHN

Mac Flecknoe (Angol)All human things are subject to decay,And, when Fate summons, monarchs must obey:

This Flecknoe found, who, like Augustus, youngWas call'd to empire, and had govern'd long:

n prose and verse, was own'd, without dispute Through all the realms of !on"sense, absolute# This aged prince now $ourishing in peace,And blest with issue of a large increase,Worn out with business, did at length debate

To settle the succession of the %tate:And pond'ring which of all his sons was &t

To reign, and wage immortal war with wit(ry'd, 'tis resolv'd for nature pleads that he%hould only rule, who most resembles me:%hadwell alone my perfect image bears,)ature in dullness from his tender years#%hadwell alone, of all my sons, is heWho stands con&rm'd in full stupidity#

The rest to some faint meaning make pretence,*ut %hadwell never deviates into sense#%ome beams of wit on other souls may fall,%trike through and make a lucid interval*ut %hadwell's genuine night admits no ray,

+is rising fogs prevail upon the day:*esides his goodly fabric &lls the eye,And seems design'd for thoughtless majesty:

Thoughtless as monarch oaks, that shade the plain,And, spread in solemn state, supinely reign#+eywood and %hirley were but types of thee,

Thou last great prophet of tautology:ven , a dunce of more renown than they,

Was sent before but to prepare thy wayAnd coarsely clad in !orwich drugget came

To teach the nations in thy greater name#

)y warbling lute, the lute whilom strungWhen to -ing .ohn of /ortugal sung,Was but the prelude to that glorious day,When thou on silver Thames did'st cut thy way,With well tim'd oars before the royal barge,%well'd with the pride of thy celestial charge

And big with hymn, commander of an host, The like was ne'er in psom blankets toss'd#)ethinks see the new Arion sail,

The lute still trembling underneath thy nail#At thy well sharpen'd thumb from shore to shore

And %hadwell they resound from Aston +all#About thy boat the little &shes throng,As at the morning toast, that $oats along#%ometimes as prince of thy harmonious band

And /anton waging harmless war with words#+ere Flecknoe, as a place to fame well known,Ambitiously design'd his %hadwell's throne#For ancient Jecker prophesi'd long since,

That in this pile should reign a mighty prince,

*orn for a scourge of wit, and $ail of sense: To whom true dullness should some /syches owe,*ut worlds of )isers from his pen should $ow+umorists and hypocrites it should produce,Whole Iaymond families, and tribes of *ruce# !ow mpress Fame had publisht the renown,Df %hadwell's coronation through the town#Ious'd by report of fame, the nations meet,From near *un"+ill, and distant Watling"street#!o /ersian carpets spread th'imperial way,*ut scatter'd limbs of mangled poets lay:From dusty shops neglected authors come,)artyrs of pies, and reli@ues of the bum#)uch +eywood, %hirley, Dgleby there lay,*ut loads of %hadwell almost chok'd the way#*ilk'd stationers for yeoman stood prepar'd,And +erringman was (aptain of the Euard#

The hoary prince in majesty appear'd,+igh on a throne of his own labours rear'd#At his right hand our young Ascanius sat

Iome's other hope, and pillar of the state#+is brows thick fogs, instead of glories, grace,And lambent dullness play'd around his face#As +annibal did to the altars come,%worn by his sire a mortal foe to Iome%o %hadwell swore, nor should his vow be vain,

That he till death true dullness would maintainAnd in his father's right, and realm's defence,!e'er to have peace with wit, nor truce with sense#

The king himself the sacred unction made,As king by oKce, and as priest by trade:

n his sinister hand, instead of ball,+e plac'd a mighty mug of potent ale>ove's kingdom to his right he did convey,At once his sceptre and his rule of swayWhose righteous lore the prince had practis'd young,And from whose loins recorded /syche sprung,+is temples last with poppies were o'er spread,

That nodding seem'd to consecrate his head: .ust at that point of time, if fame not lie,Dn his left hand twelve reverend owls did $y#%o Iomulus, 'tis sung, by Tiber's brook,/resage of sway from twice si vultures took#

Th'admiring throng loud acclamations make,And omens of his future empire take#

The sire then shook the honours of his head,And from his brows damps of oblivion shedFull on the &lial dullness: long he stood,Iepelling from his breast the raging godAt length burst out in this prophetic mood: +eavens bless my son, from reland let him reign

To far *arbadoes on the Western mainDf his dominion may no end be known,And greater than his father's be his throne#*eyond love's kingdom let him stretch his pen+e paus'd, and all the people cry'd Amen#

That they to future ages may be known,!ot copies drawn, but issue of thy own#!ay let thy men of wit too be the same,All full of thee, and di ering but in name

Thou art my blood, where .onson has no partWhat share have we in !ature or in ArtQWhere did his wit on learning & a brand,And rail at arts he did not understandQWhere made he love in /rince !icander's vein,Dr swept the dust in /syche's humble strainQWhere sold he bargains, whip"stitch, kiss my arse,/romis'd a play and dwindled to a farceQWhen did his muse from Fletcher scenes purloin,As thou whole th'ridge dost transfuse to thineQ*ut so transfus'd as oil on waters $ow,+is always $oats above, thine sinks below#

This is thy province, this thy wondrous way,!ew humours to invent for each new play:

This is that boasted bias of thy mind,*y which one way, to dullness, 'tis inclin'd,Which makes thy writings lean on one side still,And in all changes that way bends thy will#!or let thy mountain belly make pretenceDf likeness thine's a tympany of sense#A tun of man in thy large bulk is writ,

*ut sure thou 'rt but a kilderkin of wit#>ike mine thy gentle numbers feebly creep, Thy Tragic )use gives smiles, thy (omic sleep#With whate'er gall thou sett'st thy self to write,

Thy ino ensive satires never bite#n thy felonious heart, though venom lies,t does but touch thy rish pen, and dies#

Thy genius calls thee not to purchase famen keen iambics, but mild anagram:

>eave writing plays, and choose for thy command%ome peaceful province in acrostic land#

There thou may'st wings display and altars raise,And torture one poor word ten thousand ways#Dr if thou would'st thy di 'rent talents suit,%et thy own songs, and sing them to thy lute#+e said, but his last words were scarcely heard,For *ruce and >ongvil had a trap prepar'd,And down they sent the yet declaiming bard#

RAY ,THOMA*

Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard(Angol)The curfew tolls the knell of parting day,

The lowing herd winds slowly o'er the lea,The ploughman homeward plods his weary way,

And leaves the world to darkness and to me.

Now fades the glimmering landscape on the sight,

And all the air a solemn stillness holds,

Save where the beetle wheels his droning flight,And drowsy tinklings lull the distant folds:

Save that from yonder ivy mantled tower The moping owl does to the moon complain

!f such as, wandering near her secret bower,"olest her ancient solitary reign.

#eneath those rugged elms, that yew tree's shade,

$here heaves the turf in many a mouldering heap,%ach in his narrow cell for ever laid,

The rude &orefathers of the hamlet sleep.

The bree y call of incense breathing morn,

The swallow twittering from the straw built shed,The cock's shrill clarion, or the echoing horn,

Their homely oys, and destiny obscure2

Nor 5randeur hear with a disdainful smileThe short and simple annals of the 6oor.

And all that beauty, all that wealth e'er gave,

Awaits alike th' inevitable hour:The paths of glory lead but to the grave.

And waste its sweetness on the desert air.

Some village (ampden, that with dauntless breast

The little tyrant of his fields withstood,

Some mute inglorious "ilton here may rest,Some 8romwell, guiltless of his country's blood.

Th' applause of list'ning senates to command,The threats of pain and ruin to despise,

To scatter plenty o'er a smiling land,

And read their history in a nation's eyes,

Their lot forbad: nor circumscribed alone

Their growing virtues, but their crimes confined2&orbad to wade through slaughter to a throne,

And shut the gates of mercy on mankind,

The struggling pangs of conscious truth to hide,

To ?uench the blushes of ingenuous shame,!r heap the shrine of 4u@ury and 6ride

Along the cool se?uester'd vale of lifeThey kept the noiseless tenour of their way.

$ith uncouth rhymes and shapeless sculpture deck'd,7mplores the passing tribute of a sigh.

Their name, their years, spelt by th' unletter'd "use,The place of fame and elegy supply:

And many a holy te@t around she strews,

That teach the rustic moralist to die.

&or who, to dumb forgetfulness a prey,

This pleasing an@ious being e'er resign'd,4eft the warm precincts of the cheerful day,

These beauteous forms,

Through a long absence, have not been to me

As is a landscape to a blind man's eye2#ut oft, in lonely rooms, and 'mid the din

!f towns and cities, 7 have owed to them,

7n hours of weariness, sensations sweet,&elt in the blood, and felt along the heart2

And passing even into my purer mind,

$ith tran?uil restoration: feelings too!f unremembered pleasure2 such, perhaps,

As have no slight or trivial influence

!n that best portion of a good man's life,(is little, nameless, unremembered, acts

!f kindness and of love. Nor less, 7 trust,

To them 7 may have owed another gift,!f aspect more sublime2 that blessed mood,

7n which the burthen of the mystery,7n which the heavy and the weary weight

!f all this unintelligible world,

7s lightened: that serene and blessed mood,7n which the affections gently lead us on

Kntil, the breath of this corporeal frame

And even the motion of our human bloodAlmost suspended, we are laid asleep

7n body, and become a living soul2

$hile with an eye made ?uiet by the power !f harmony, and the deep power of oy,

$e see into the life of things.

7f this

#e but a vain belief, yet, oh3 how oft 7n darkness and amid the many shapes

!f oyless daylight2 when the fretful stir

Knprofitable, and the fever of the world,(ave hung upon the beatings of my heart

(ow oft, in spirit, have 7 turned to thee,

! sylvan $ye3 thou wanderer through the woods,(ow often has my spirit turned to thee3

And now, with gleams of half e@tinguished though$ith many recognitions dim and faint,

And somewhat of a sad perple@ity,

The picture of the mind revives again:$hile here 7 stand, not only with the sense

!f present pleasure, but with pleasing thoughts

That in this moment there is life and food

&or future years. And so 7 dare to hope,Though changed, no doubt, from what 7 was when first

7 came among these hills2 when like a roe

7 bounded o'er the mountains, by the sides!f the deep rivers, and the lonely streams,

$herever nature led more like a man

&lying from something that he dreads than one$ho sought the thing he loved. &or nature then

CThe coarser pleasures of my boyish days,

And their glad animal movements all gone byDTo me was all in all. 7 cannot paint

$hat then 7 was. The sounding cataract

(aunted me like a passion2 the tall rock,The mountain, and the deep and gloomy wood,

Their colours and their forms, were then to meAn appetite2 a feeling and a love,

That had no need of a remoter charm,

#y thought supplied, nor any interestKnborrowed from the eye. That time is past,

And all its aching oys are now no more,

And all its di y raptures. Not for this&aint 7, nor mourn nor murmur2 other gifts

(ave followed2 for such loss, 7 would believe,

Abundant recompense. &or 7 have learnedTo look on nature, not as in the hour

!f thoughtless youth2 but hearing oftentimes

The still, sad music of humanity, Nor harsh nor grating, though of ample power

To chasten and subdue. And 7 have feltA presence that disturbs me with the oy

!f elevated thoughts2 a sense sublime

!f something far more deeply interfused,$hose dwelling is the light of setting suns,

And the round ocean and the living air,

And the blue sky, and in the mind of man:A motion and a spirit, that impels

All thinking things, all ob ects of all thought,

And rolls through all things. Therefore am 7 stillA lover of the meadows and the woods,

And mountains2 and of all that we behold

+yron, -on .uan Canto /0

"ummaryThe author begins by saying that since his own age cannot supply a suitable hero for his poem, he will use anold friend, on Fuan. on Fuan was born in Seville, Spain. (is parents are on Fos+ and onna 7ne . onna7ne is learned and has a good memory. (er favorite science is mathematics. She has a smattering of 5reek,4atin, &rench, %nglish, and (ebrew. on Fos+ has no love for learning or the learned and has a roving eye. Ahis wife is rigidly virtuous and as he is incautious by nature, he is forever getting into scrapes. 8onse?uently,there are ?uarrels between the two. onna 7ne , with the help of druggists and doctors, tries to prove that herhusband is mad. She also keeps a diary in which she notes all his faults and even searches through his trunks books and letters looking for evidence to use against him. Their friends and relatives try to no avail to bring

about a reconciliation2 their lawyers recommend a divorce. #ut before the situation can reach a critical point,on Fose dies.

onna 7ne makes herself responsible for the supervision of on Fuan's education. (e is taught riding, fencingunnery, how to scale a fortress, languages, sciences, and arts. (is education is to a certain degree impractical,for he is taught nothing about life and studies the classics from e@purgated editions. 7n short, his mother seesit that he receives an education calculated to repress all his natural instincts and keeps the facts of life from hi

Among onna 7ne 's friends is onna Fulia, a beautiful, intelligent young woman with "oorish blood in herveins. She is married to on Alfonso, a ealous man more than twice her age. Theirs is a loveless marriage. 7

rumored that onna 7ne and on Alfonso had once been lovers and that she cultivated the friendship of onFulia to maintain the association with the husband. onna Fulia has always been fond of Fuan, but when he becomes a young man of si@teen, her feelings toward him change and become a source of embarrassment to both of them. Fuan does not understand the change that is taking place in him, but the more sophisticated Fulreali es that she is falling in love with Fuan. She resolves to fight her growing love and never to see Fuan aga but the ne@t day finds a reason for visiting his mother. She then convinces herself that her love is only 6laton

and persuades herself that it will remain that way. Fuan meantime cannot understand why he is pensive andinclined to seek solitude.

!ne Fune evening Fulia and Fuan happen to be in a bower together. !ne of Fulia's hands happens to fall on oneof Fuan's. $hen the sun sets and the moon rises, Fuan's arm finds its way around Fulia's waist. Fulia strives wherself a little, GAnd whispering '7 will ne'er consent' consentedG CSt. D.

As Fulia lies in her bed one November night, there arises a tremendous clatter. (er maid Antonia warns her thaon Alfonso is coming up the stairs with half the city at his back. The two women have barely enough time to

throw the bedclothes in a heap when on Alfonso enters the room. Fulia indignantly asks Alfonso if he suspecher of wrongdoing and invites him to search the room. Alfonso and his followers do so and find nothing. $hilethe search is going on, onna Fulia protests her innocence with angry elo?uence, giving numerous e@amplesher virtue and pouring abuse upon her luckless husband. $hen no lover is found, on Alfonso tries to e@cusehis behavior but only succeeds in drawing sobs and hysterics from his wife. Alfonso, shamefaced, withdrawswith his followers and Fulia and Antonia bolt the bedroom door.

No sooner has Alfonso gone than Fuan emerges from beneath the pile of bedclothes where he has been hidde;nowing that Alfonso would soon be back, Fulia and Antonia advise Fuan to go into a closet. (ardly has Fuanentered his new hiding place when Alfonso returns. Alfonso makes various e@cuses for his conduct and begsFulia's pardon, which she half gives and half withholds. The matter might have ended there had Alfonso notstumbled over a pair of men's shoes. (e promptly goes to get his sword. Fulia immediately urges Fuan to leavethe room and make his e@it by the garden gate, the key to which she gives him. Knfortunately, on his way ouhe meets Alfonso and knocks him down. 7n the scuffle Fuan loses his only garment and flees naked into thenight.

Alfonso sues for divorce. Fuan's mother decides that her son should leave Seville and travel to various%uropean countries for four years. Fulia is put in a convent from which she sends Fuan a letter confessing helove for him and e@pressing no regrets.

The first episode of 5on (uan ends at this point, but before concluding 8anto 7 #yron adds twenty two stan asin which he entertains himself by giving a mocking statement of his intentions in regard to 5on (uan , taunts hiscontemporaries $ordsworth, 8oleridge, and Southey, defends the morality of his story, confesses that at thirtyhis hair is gray and his heart has lost its freshness, comments on the evanescence of fame, and says goodbye this readers.

Analysis

7n the first few stan as, #yron establishes the half playful and mocking and half serious tone that is going to pervade 5on (uan. $hen that is done, he gives his readers as the chief characters in his first canto a pair ofmarried couples. They are both unhappily married. on Fos+ and onna 7ne are mismatched. onna 7ne icold and severe type of woman, although she has evidently not always been so. 7t was generally known that iher younger days she had had an affair with on Alfonso. on Fos+ is a good natured, easy going kind of m



inclined to take his pleasures where he finds them. #yron's defense of him is that he had been badly brought uand that he was amorous by nature. 7n the character of onna 7ne , #yron was satiri ing, against the advice his friends, his estranged wife, 4ady #yron. onna Fulia and on Alfonso are mismatched by age as onna7ne and on Fos+ are mismatched by incompatibility of character and personality. on Alfonso has nothingoffer onna Fulia e@cept his name and station. Theirs was a marriage of convenience. #yron does not botherdevote much characteri ation to on Alfonso. (e merely says he was neither very lovable nor very hateable.(e had a more or less negative personality, neither warm nor cold. 4ike any other husband, he did not care to be cuckolded.

#yron is far more interested in the wives than in the husbands and characteri es them rather e@tensively. Neither portrait is flattering. onna 7ne 's is clearly malicious2 in her #yron was attacking his estranged wifeShe is not a faithless wife, but she is an intolerant and rather frigid one. onna Fulia's portrait of woman as wis likewise unflattering2 she deceives herself I and her husband. (owever, #yron makes the reader feelsympathetic toward her in spite of his using her to show up woman's wiles. onna Fulia and on Fos+, had th been closer in age, might have made a compatible pair2 onna Fulia finds in on Fos+'s son the warmth thatwas in the father. onna 7ne and on Alfonso, who had been lovers at one time, might have gotten along wein marriage. (uman nature and society, #yron seems to say, work against a happy marriage.

Some of #yron's contemporaries found #yron's bedroom farce immoral. 7t can be said in his defense that hismocking presentation neutrali es any remote occasion of sin that there might be present in his story of illicitlove. Nor does he supply any provocative details. 4astly, both onna Fulia and on Fuan are made to lookridiculous, and both are punished for their guilt

The story in 8anto 7 is told by an G7G persona who is said to be a friend of on Fuan's family. #yron may haveforeseen the difficulties involved in making this persona a witness who would be present with on Fuan in hisvarious adventures and so decided to discard him. At any rate the G7G narrator is discarded before the first caends, and becomes #yron himself giving his opinions on various matters and communicating more or lessconfidentially with the reader.

8anto 7 of 5on (uan is without doubt the most interesting, entertaining, and amusing of all the cantos. &oranything of this kind comparable in ?uality and liveliness in %nglish verse, the reader has to go all the way bato 8haucer.

own she came and found a boat

#eneath a willow left afloat,And around about the prow she wrote


And down the river's dim e@panse

4ike some bold seer in a trance,

Seeing all his own mischance $ith a glassy countenance

id she look to 8amelot.

And at the closing of the dayShe loosed the chain, and down she lay2

The broad stream bore her far away,


4ying, robed in snowy whiteThat loosely flew to left and right

The leaves upon her falling light

Thro' the noises of the night,She floated down to 8amelot:

And as the boat head wound along

The willowy hills and fields among,They heard her singing her last song,


(eard a carol, mournful, holy,

8hanted loudly, chanted lowly,

Till her blood was fro en slowly,And her eyes were darkened wholly,

Turn'd to tower'd 8amelot.&or ere she reach'd upon the tide

The first house by the water side,

Singing in her song she died,The 4ady of Shalott.

Knder tower and balcony,#y garden wall and gallery,

A gleaming shape she floated by,

ead pale between the houses high,Silent into 8amelot.

When I am dead, my dearestBY CHRISTINA ROSSETTI

When I am dead, my dearest,

Sing no sad songs for me;

Plant thou no roses at my head,

Nor shady cypress tree:

Be the green grass above me

With showers and dewdrops wet;

nd if thou wilt, remember,

nd if thou wilt, forget!

To a Mouse - A Poem by Robert BurnsC$ritten by #urns after he had turned over the nest of a tiny field mouse with his plough. #urns was a farmerand farmers are generally far too busy to be concerned with the health of mice. This poem is another illustratiof <obert #urn's tolerance to all creatures and his innate humanity.D

Thou saw the fields laid bare an wast, An weary 6inter comin fast, An co&ie here, beneath the blast,Thou thou ht to dwell,Till crash7 the cruel coulter past1ut thro thy cell.



That wee3bit heap o lea!es an stibble, Has cost thee monie a weary nibble7 0ow thou s turn d out, for a thy trouble, <ut house or hald.To thole the 6inter s sleety dribble,

!he 5anity of 6uman Wishes (detail)(Angol)$hen first the college rolls receive his name,

The young enthusiast ?uits his ease for fame2<esistless burns the fever of renown,

8aught from the strong contagion of the gown:!'er #odley's dome his future labours spread,



And #acon's mansion trembles o'er his head.

Are these thy views9 6roceed, illustrious youth,

And Qirtue guard thee to the throne of Truth3et, should thy soul indulge the generous heat,

Till captive Science yields her last retreat2

Should <eason guide thee with her brightest ray,And pour on misty oubt resistless day2

Should no false kindness lure to loose delight,

Nor praise rela@, nor difficulty fright2Should tempting Novelty thy cell refrain,

And Sloth effuse her opiate fumes in vain2

Should #eauty blunt on fops her fatal dart, Nor claim the triumph of a letter'd heart2

Should no disease thy torpid veins invade,

Nor "elancholy's phantoms haunt thy shade2et hope not life from grief or danger free,

Nor think the doom of man reversed for thee:eign on the passing world to turn thine eyes,

And pause a while from learning, to be wise2

There mark what ills the scholar's life assail,Toil, envy, want, the patron, and the ail.

See nations, slowly wise, and meanly ust,

To buried merit raise the tardy bust.7f dreams yet flatter, once again attend,

(ear 4ydiat's life, and 5alileo's end.

n vain his little children, peeping outnto the mingling rack, demand their sire,

With tears of artless innocence# Alas<

!or wife, nor children more shall he behold,!or friends, nor sacred home# Dn every nerve, The deadly winter sei4es shuts up senseAnd, o'er his stronger vitals creeping cold,>ays him along the snows, a sti en'd corse,Pnstretch'd, and bleaching in the northernblast#
