The Peateb-Book At Its Origin.—To Leave ...
The Peateb-Book at its Origin . —To leave conjecture for fact , we have Lord Paget ' s evidence that the new Prayer-Book was distasteful to eleven-twelfths of the population . The number is perhaps exaggerated , and in these eleven-twelfths there was a considerable fraction for whom it was not too little popish , but too much so . It was determined , at all hazards , to conciliate the latter , and perhaps it was necessary to do so ; but it was at the cost of alienating- the middle party more hopelessly than ever . The victories of Charles the Fifth naturally were regarded as a signal declaration from heaven against the doctrinal reformers ; and a worse effect of them was to increase the multitudes of Dutch and German fanatics , with whom England was already overrun . The presence of such men at all was sufficiently offensive ; and when their leaders were placed in authority at the universities , when Martin Bucer and Peter Martyr were consulted on the services and the Articles , the majority of the English felt much as they would now feel if Louis Blanc were invited to a council of State , or a modern project of church reform submitted to Feuerbach . or Ronge . — Westminster Revieiv for January . The Tyrants of the Household . —And so it is , and for his rule over his family , and for bis conduct to wife and children—subjects over whom his power is monarchical , any one who watches the world must think "with trembling sometimes of the account which many a man will have to render . For in our society there's no law to control the King of the Fireside . He is master of property , happiness , —life almost . He is free to punish , to make happy or unhappy , to ruin or to torture . He may kill a wife ^ , gradually , and be no more questioned than the grand seignior who drowns a slave at midnight . He may make slaves and hypocrites of his children ; or friends and freemen ; or drive them into revolt and enmity against the natural law of love . I have heard politicians and coffee-house wiseacres talking over the newspaper , and railing at th e tyranny of the French King , and the Emperor , and wondered how these ( who are monarchs , too , in their way , ) govern their own dominions at home , where each man rules absolute ? When the annals of each little reign are shown to the Supreme Master , under whom we hold sovereignty , histories will be laid bare of household tyrants as cruel as Amurath , and as savage as Nero , and as reckless and dissolute as Charles . —Thac-KEBAY ' s Esmond . Scotch and English . —The Scottish poets have not been afraid to commit themselves by a show of feeling ; the English poets have . Even of such a public virtue as patriotism the Englishman is often very slow to make -confession ; and yet no one is prouder of his fatherland . After the manner of Balaam the son of Beor , he gives a blessing to nations that he cordially hates ; aud his love for England gushes forth in words of reviling , if not in some dreadful malison . " England ! with all thy faults , I love thee still , " says Cowper ; and then he goes on to enumerate her faults , without mentioning a single excellence , onl y hinting at English mind and manners ; still , he says , as though it were a hard job , he will manage to love his country . How truly English ! and how different from the " Rule Britannia" of Thomson ; from the " Ye Mariners" of Campbell ; from Scott' . s burst of enthusiasm when addressing the " Lund of brown heath and shaggy wood ;" from Beattie , even from Byron , at least when ho sings of Scotland , and , above all , from Burns . The . songs of Burns owe their . success to this egotism , this personality , this outpouring of the inmost soul which the English avoid as they do tho confessional . —From DaXjLAS ' b Poetics . Tine Immortality ov Akficotionv—Who , in the course of his life , hath not been no biswitched , und worshipped Honift idol or another ? Yours after this passion hath boon dead and buried , along with a thousand other worldly cures und ambitions , ho who felt it can reeul it out of its grave , and admin * , almost tm fondly us ho did in his youth , that lovely queenly creature . I invoke that bountiful spirit from tho uh : tdes , und love her still ; or rather I should say , such u past is always present to a man ; such it passion once felt forms u part of his whole being , and cannot he separated from it ; it becomes a portion of tins limn of to-day , just us any fiiith or conviction , tho discovery of poetry , tho awakening of religion , over afterward iniluonco him ; just us the wound 1 had at Blenheim , and of which I woar the ? scar , hath become part of myfrume und influenced my whole body—nay , spirit Bulmuqnontly , though 'twas got and healed forty years ago . Flirting and forgetting . ' Wlmt faithful hearfc can do these V Our great thoughts , our ^ rcut aflectioiiH , the Truths of our life , never leuvo u . s . Surely , wo cniuiot m >)) urut «) from our consciousness ; nhall follow it whithersoever that shull go ; and arc of thoir nature di-vino und i ; lortal . —• Tuaok . jsuax'b Esmond .
