On[1] another floor of the same building may[2] be found bundles of Pimento[3] sticks and Malacca[4] canes, a great store of mother-of-pearl, a heap of delicate[5], richly-tinted ear-shells[6], and a quantity _of_ ivory. Here are elephants’ teeth, some[7] of which are larger than bricks and weigh fourteen pounds. Passing[8] out of this building, we find[9] ourselves in an enormous shed with little black boards, hung[10] at intervals, and bearing the names of vessels. Beneath these boards are[11] goods lying ready for shipment, and these are at least as varied[12] as the imports[13]. Here are pickles[14], blacking, a[15] cartload or so _of_ bricks, and scores[16] of anvils. There[17] are church-bells, a chest of drawers, a rocking-horse, a mangle, and boxes, bales, and barrels innumerable[18].—‘THE GLOBE’ NEWSPAPER.

DR. JOHNSON ON[1] DEBT.

Dr. Johnson held[2] that[3] debt is ruin. His[4] words on the subject are weighty, and worthy of being held in remembrance. “Do not,” said[5] he, “accustom[6] yourself to consider debt only as[7] an inconvenience. You[8] will find it a calamity. Poverty takes[9] away so many means of doing good, and[10] produces so much inability to resist evil, that it[11] is by[12] all virtuous means to be avoided. Let[13] it be your first care, then, not to be in any man’s debt. Resolve[14] not[15] to be poor. Whatever[16] you have, spend less. Poverty[17] is a great enemy to _human_ happiness. It destroys liberty. It makes some[18] virtues impracticable[19] and others[20] extremely difficult. Frugality[21] is not only the basis of[22] quiet, but[23] of beneficence[24]. No[25] man can help others that wants himself. We must have[26] enough, before[27] we have to spare.”—S. SMILES, SELF-HELP.

[4] Say ‘What he says on (+über+) this subject (+Gegenstand+, m.) is important and worthy of our notice (+Beachtung+, f.)’.

[5] Place the words ‘said he’ at the end of the whole clause.

[6] =When verbs and adjectives, governing a preposition, are used in a principal clause and are followed by a subordinate clause, either in the form of a supine= (i.e. an infinitive with +zu+, see S. 1, N. 2) =or beginning with a subordinative conjunction, the adverb +da+, in connection with the preposition required, is generally placed in the principal clause=; as—

We will accustom ourselves to be thrifty.

+Wir wollen uns daran gewöhnen, sparsam zu sein.+

Do not excuse yourself with having had no time.

+Entschuldigen Sie sich nicht damit, daß Sie keine Zeit gehabt haben.+

The verb sich +gewöhnen+ requires the prep. +an+. Construe accordingly, and use the 2nd pers. sing.

A CURIOUS[1] INSTRUMENT.

I.

A gentleman[2], just returned[3] from a journey to (S. 72, N. 4) London, was surrounded by[4] his children, eager[5], after the first salutation was over, to hear the news, and still more eager to see the contents[6] of a small portmanteau, which[7] were, one by one, carefully unfolded and displayed to view. After[8] having distributed amongst the children a few small presents, the[9] father took his seat again, saying, that[10] he must confess he[11] had brought from town[12], for his own use, something far more curious and valuable than any[13] of the little gifts (S. 16, N. 10) they had received. It was, he said[14], too good to[15] present to any of them; but he would, if[16] they pleased, first give them a brief description of it (S. 4, N. 5, _B_), and[17] then perhaps they might be allowed to inspect it.

[1] +merkwürdig.+

[2] The noun ‘=gentleman=’ may be used in its unaltered form in German.

[3] +heim´kehren+; for the constr. see S. 7, N. 3, _B_.

[4] +von+; to surround, +umrin´gen+.

[5] Say ‘who after the first salutations were eager (+begierig+)’.

[6] +der Inhalt+, which has no plural.

[7] Since the antecedent of the pron. _which_ (i.e. +Inhalt+) has no plural in German, the constr. of the passage ‘which — to view’ must be altered. Let us say ‘from which (+aus welcher+, to agree with +Reisetasche+ in the fem. sing.) then (supply the adverb +auch+ in this place) every piece was carefully unpacked (+aus´packen+) and shown round (+umher´zeigen+)’.

[8] Construe accord. to S. 55, N. 1; to distribute, +vertei´len+; amongst, +unter+, with the acc. The direct object must be placed before the words ‘amongst the children’.

[9] Say ‘he sat down again and said’.

[10] that he must confess, +er wolle es nur gestehen+.

[11] This passage is best introduced by the conj. +daß+. Read carefully App. §§ 28 and 30.

[12] +aus der Stadt+, which place before the p. p. (+mitgebracht+).

[13] +irgend eins.+

[14] Say ‘he continued’.

[15] See S. 19, N. 7, and supply here the pron. +es+; to any = to one.

A CURIOUS INSTRUMENT.

II.

The children were accordingly[1] all attention, while the father thus[2] proceeded[3]: “This small instrument displays[4] the most[5] perfect ingenuity of[6] construction, and[7] exquisite nicety and beauty of workmanship. From[8] its extreme[9] delicacy[10], however, it[11] is so liable to injury, that it is always protected by a[12] sort of light curtain, adorned[13] with a beautiful fringe, and[14] so placed as to fall in a moment on the approach of the slightest danger. The[15] external appearance of the instrument is always more or less beautiful, though in this respect there[16] is a great diversity in the different sorts. The[17] internal contrivance, however, is the same in all _of them_, and is so curious, and in its power[18] so astonishing, that no one who knows it[19] can suppress his surprise and admiration.”

[1] +natürlich die Aufmerksamkeit selbst.+

[2] +folgendermaßen.+

[3] proceeded = continued.

[4] displays = shows.

[5] most perfect = highest.

[6] Use the gen. of the def. art.

[7] Say ‘and is most exactly (+unübertrefflich genau+) and beautifully worked’.

[8] From = On account of, +Wegen+.

[9] extreme = extraordinary.

[10] +Empfindlichkeit+, f.

[14] Say ‘which is placed (+angebracht+) so that it falls down at (+bei+) the approach of the slightest danger in a moment’.

[15] The — appearance, +Das Äußere+.

[16] Render ‘there is’ in this instance by ‘+besteht+ (there exists)’, which must be placed at the end of the passage, on account of the preceding subordinative conj. +obgleich+.

“By a slight _and_ momentary movement, which the owner can easily effect, he can[1] ascertain[2] with considerable accuracy the size, colour, shape, weight (S. 10, N. 9), and value of[3] any article whatever. A[4] person possessed of one is[5] thus saved from the necessity of asking _a_ thousand questions and[6] trying a variety of troublesome experiments, which would otherwise be necessary; and such a slow and laborious process[7] would, after[8] all, not succeed[9] half so well as a single application of this admirable instrument.”

GEORGE. “If it is such a very useful thing[10] (S. 27, N. 8), =I wonder=[11] that[12] everybody, that can at all afford it, does not have one.”

[1] To avoid repetition render the verb ‘can’ here by +imstande sein+.

[2] +bestimmen+, which use in the form of a Supine and place at the end of the whole clause.

[3] of — whatever, +irgend eines Gegenstandes+.

[4] A — one = The possessor.

[5] is — questions = needs therefore (+also+) not (to) ask _a_ thousand questions. To ask a question, +eine Frage stellen+.

[6] and — experiments = and to make various troublesome experiments.

[7] +Verfahren+, n.

[8] after all not, +doch nicht+, which must not be placed between commas. Comp. S. 15, N. 3.

[9] +gelingen.+

[10] thing = object.

[11] =I wonder=, +es wundert mich+; we wonder, +es wundert uns+; you wonder, +es wundert Sie+.

[12] that — one = that not everybody, who can at all (+irgend+) make it possible, possesses the same (to agree with ‘object’).

FATHER. “These instruments are not so uncommon as you suppose; I myself _happen to_ know several individuals[1] who[2] are possessed of one or two of[3] them.”

CHARLES. “How large are they, father? Could I hold one in my hand?”

FATHER. “You[4] might; but[5] I should be very sorry to trust[6] mine to you.”

GEORGE. “You must take[7] very great care of it, then[8]?”

FATHER. “Indeed[9] I must. I intend every night to envelop[10] it in[11] the light curtain I mentioned; it must, besides, occasionally be washed in[12] a certain colourless liquid kept[13] for the purpose; but this is such a delicate[14] operation, that[15] persons, I find, are generally reluctant to perform it. But notwithstanding the tenderness[16] of this instrument, you[17] will be surprised to hear that[18] it may be darted to a great distance, without[19] suffering the least injury, and without any danger of losing it.”

[1] individuals = persons.

[2] who — one = who possess one.

[3] of them = of the same.

[4] +Das könntest du wohl.+

[5] but — sorry = but I should be very unwilling.

[6] to trust anything to a person, +einem etwas an´vertrauen+.

[7] to take great care of a thing, +etwas sehr inacht nehmen+.

[12] in = with.

[13] +die man sich zu diesem Zwecke hält.+

[14] delicate = critical, +bedenklich+ or +gefährlich+.

[15] that — it = that one, as I have found, performs (+vollzie´hen+) the same generally but (+nur+) very unwillingly (+ungerne+).

[16] +Empfindlichkeit.+

[17] you — hear = you will hear with astonishment.

[18] that — distance, +daß man es in weite Fernen werfen kann+.

FATHER. “I[2] should be afraid of telling you to what a distance it will reach, lest you should think I am jesting with you.”

GEORGE. “Higher than this house, I[3] suppose?”

FATHER. “Much higher.”

CHARLES. “Then[4], how do you[5] get it again?”

FATHER. “It[6] is easily cast down by a gentle movement that does it no injury.”

GEORGE. “But who can do that?”

FATHER. “The[7] person whose business it is to take care of it.”

CHARLES. “Well[8], I cannot understand you at all; but do[9] tell us, father, what it is chiefly used for!”

[1] +Das wäre!+

[2] Say ‘I almost fear to tell you what distances it can reach, that (+damit+) you may not believe that I am jesting with you’.

[3] ‘=I suppose=’, in interrogative sentences, may be elegantly rendered by the adverb +=wohl=+:

You have prepared your lesson well to-day, _I suppose_?

+Sie haben Ihre Lektion heute ~wohl~ gut studiert?+

In elliptic sentences, where the verb is omitted, +wohl+ generally occupies the first place.

[4] The adv. +denn+ must stand after the object +es+.

[5] The pron. ‘=you=’, used in a general sense, is mostly rendered by the indef. pron. +=man=+.

[6] It — down, +Es senkt sich ... leicht wieder nach unten.+ The place of the words ‘by — injury’ is indicated by the three dots.

[7] +Derjenige.+

[8] Well = Alas, +Ach+.

[9] The English ‘=do=’, in sentences of entreaty, may colloquially be rendered by the adverb +=doch=+; as—

_Do_ give me the book, my child!

+Gieb mir ~doch~ das Buch, mein Kind!+

FATHER. “Its[1] uses are so various that I know not which[2] to specify. It[3] has been found very useful in deciphering (S. 1, N. 3) old manuscripts, and[4], indeed, has its use in modern prints. It[5] will assist us greatly in acquiring[6] all kinds of knowledge, and without it[7] some of the most sublime parts[8] of[9] creation would be matters[10] of mere conjecture. It[11] must be confessed, however, that very much depends on a[12] proper application of it, being (S. 30, N. 4) possessed by many _persons_ who appear to have no[13] adequate sense of its value, but[14] who employ it only for the most low and common purposes, without _even_ thinking, apparently, of the noble uses[15] for which it is designed, or of the exquisite[16] gratification[17] (S. 16, N. 10) it is capable of affording. It[18] is indeed in order to excite in your minds some higher sense of its value than you might otherwise have entertained, that I am giving you this previous description.”

GEORGE. “Well _then_, tell us something more about it (S. 4, N. 5, _B_).”

FATHER. “It is also of[19] a very penetrating quality, and _it_ can often discover secrets which can be detected by no other means. It[20] must be owned, however, that[21] it is equally prone to reveal them[22].”

[1] Its — various = It serves for (+zu+) such (+so+) various purposes (+Zweck+, m.).

[2] which — specify = which I shall specify (+anführen+).

[3] It — useful = One has found it of great use.

[18] Say ‘Only to awaken in you a higher idea of its value than you probably (+vermutlich+) otherwise (+sonst+) would have had (Pluperfect Subj.), I give you this previous (+vorläufig+) description’.

[19] of — quality = very penetrative (+scharfsichtig+).

[20] Say ‘But (+Doch+) I must confess.

GEORGE. “What colour are[4] these instruments?”

FATHER. “They vary[5] considerably in this respect.”

GEORGE. “Well, what colour is yours?”

FATHER. “I believe it is of _a_ darkish colour; but if I shall confess the truth (S. 27, N. 8), I must say that I never saw (S. 48, N. 2) it[6] in my life.”

BOTH. “Never[7] saw it in your life?”

FATHER. “No, nor[8] do I wish; but I have seen a representation of it, which (S. 48, N. 6) is so exact that my curiosity is quite satisfied.”

GEORGE. “But why don’t you look[9] at the thing itself?”

FATHER. “I should be in great danger[10] of losing it, if I[11] did.”

CHARLES. “Then you could buy (S. 58, N. 8) another.”

FATHER. “Nay[12], I believe I could not prevail[13] upon any one to part with such (S. 28, N. 9) a thing[14].”

GEORGE. “Then, how did you get yours?”

FATHER. “I am so fortunate as[15] to be possessed of more than one; but[16] how I got them I really cannot recollect[17].”

CHARLES. “Not recollect! Why[18], you said you brought[19] them from London to-night!”

FATHER. “So[20] I did; I should be sorry if I had left them behind me (see App. § 36).”

CHARLES. “Now[21], father, _do_ tell us the name of this curious instrument!”

ANGLO[1]-SAXON DRESS.

The dress of civilians in general consisted[2] of a shirt and tunic descending[3] to the knee, of linen or wool, according[4] to the season. A belt was often worn round the waist[5], and a short cloak over the whole. Drawers, leather shoes or short boots and hose, or sandals, completed the ordinary costume. Labourers (S. 3, N. 2) are generally represented with shoes, but without hose. Females[6] of all ranks[7] wore long, loose garments reaching[3] to the ground, completely hiding (S. 16, N. 4) all[8] symmetry of[9] shape. Long hair, parted[10] on the forehead, and falling[11] naturally down the shoulders, with _an_ ample[12] beard and moustache, distinguish the Anglo-Saxons from the closely cropped[13] Normans. Planche remarks that[14] the character of face, as delineated in illuminations, immediately designates[15] the age[16] wherein[17] the early[18] portraits of our Lord[19], which have[20] been reverently[21] copied to[22] the present day, were[23] originally fabricated.—MILNER, HISTORY OF ENGLAND.

THE GLACIERS AT[1] SUNSET[2].

I.

At a distance these glaciers, as[3] I have said before, look[4] like frozen rivers (S. 26, N. 3); when[5] one approaches nearer, or when they press[6] downward[7] into the valley, they look[8] like immense crystals and pillars[9] of ice piled[10] together in every conceivable form. The effect[11] of this pile[12] of ice, lying (S. 48, N. 6) directly[13] in the lap of[14] green grass and flowers, is quite singular. Before we had entered[15] the valley, the sun had gone down; the sky behind the mountains was clear, and it[16] seemed _for_ a few moments as if darkness[17] was rapidly coming on. But[18] in a few moments commenced a scene[19] of transfiguration, more[20] glorious than anything I had witnessed yet. The cold, white, dismal fields[21] of ice gradually changed[22] into hues[23] of the most beautiful rose colour[24]. A[25] bank of white clouds, which rested[26] above the mountains, kindled[27] and glared[28], as[29] if some spirit of light had entered into them.

[1] +bei+, contracted with the dat. of the def. art.

[5] The clause ‘when — nearer’ may be briefly rendered by ‘+in der Nähe+’, i.e. ‘close by’.

[6] +hinein´dringen.+

[7] +abwärts.+

[8] ‘to look’ may here be rendered by +aus´sehen+, to avoid repetition; ‘like’ must then be turned by ‘+wie+’.
