    (Inn Album 1.208-217) On all too few occasions it can sweep into the full organ with tones not unworthy of Milton at some moments, as in the passage in Aristophanes' Apology which ends: What if thy watery plural vastitude, Rolling unanimous advance, had rushed, Might upon might, a moment,-stood, one stare, Sea-face to city-face, thy glaucous wave Glassing that marbled last magnificence,- Till fate's pale tremulous foam-flower tipped the gray, And when wave broke and overswarmed and, sucked To bounds back, multitudinously ceased, Let land again breathe unconfused with sea, Attiké was, Athenai was not now! (20-29) And perhaps on too many occasions it can fall into feeble, high-pitched pipings like those of the Pope: Civilization and the Emperor Succeed to Christianity and the Pope.

    We tell thee “Take Guido's life, sapped society shall crash, Whereof the main prop was, is, and shall be -Supremacy of husband over wife!” (R&B 10.2023-29) It slides from such elephantine lines as: He hath watched hunt with that slant white-wedge eye.

    It is contended [Bryant, p. 140], that amenufcd, in Le. z8, has been put by mistake for an:eufJeth; and adented [Ibid. p. iSz], by a like mistake, for adentetb in G. 29; and that the mif- take in both inflances has arisen from the Ms. having had a mixture of Saxon characters, and- the transcriber having taken the Saxon th (6) for a common d (b). But, in the first place, here is no proof at all of any mistake in either of these words; for the passage in Le. 28 remains as hard to be understood after the proposed alteration, as it was before; and the passage in G. 29 was as easy to be underiRood without the proposed alteration as with it.

    I have never met with any one, who had examined that Facsim;ile with the least atten- tion, who was not satisfied that the archetype was a forgery (29).

    An engraving of that too, that a manner of writing so contrary to modern prac- tice would have the appearance of being antient; as in ge- neral he seems to have thought, with respect to words and things, that whatever was not modern, was ancint. (29) Though the Dean has been pleased to declare roundly [p. 429], " that this Facjimile does not do justice to the original," he has not attempted to point out any inflance of deficiency, redundance, or variation in it.
