Runo XXV]

None can paint, except Sinetar,

None can weave save Kankahatar.

“Lapland’s children, they are singing,

And the hay-shod ones are chanting,

As the elk’s rare flesh they feast on,

Or the meat of smaller reindeer,

Wherefore then should I not carol,

Wherefore should our children sing not,

While upon the ryebread feasting,

Or when eating is concluded?

“Lapland’s children, they are singing,

And the hay-shod ones are chanting,

As they drink from water-pitchers,

While they chew the bark of fir-tree.

Wherefore then should I not carol,

Wherefore should our children sing not,

While the juice of corn we’re drinking,

And the best-brewed ale of barley?

“Lapland’s children they are singing,

And the hay-shod ones are chanting,

Even by the sooty fire,

As they lay the coals upon it.

Wherefore then should I not carol,

Wherefore should our children sing not,

Underneath these famous rafters,

Underneath a roof so splendid?

“Good it is for men to dwell here,

Good for women to reside here,

All among the barrels ale-filled,

Standing close beside the mead-tubs,

Near the sound where swarm the powans,

Near the place for netting salmon,

Where the food is never failing,

And the drink is never stinted.

“Good it is for men to dwell here,

Good for women to reside here,

Here to eat by care untroubled,

Here to live without affliction,

Here to eat unvexed by trouble,

And to live without a sorrow,

Long as lives our host among us,

All the lifetime of our hostess.

“Which shall I first praise in singing,

Shall it be the host or hostess?

Always first they praise the heroes,

Therefore first I praise the Master,

He who first prepared the marshland,

And along the shore who wandered,

And he brought great stumps of fir-trees,

And he trimmed the crowns of fir-trees,

Took them to a good position,

Firmly built them all together,

For his race a great house builded,

And he built a splendid homestead,

Walls constructed from the forest,

Rafters from the fearful mountains,

Laths from out the woods provided,

Boards from berry-bearing heathlands,

Bark from cherry-bearing uplands,

Moss from off the quaking marshes.

“And the house is well-constructed,

And the roof securely fastened.

Here a hundred men were gathered,

On the house-roof stood a thousand,

When this house was first constructed,

And the flooring duly fitted.

“Be assured our host so worthy,

In the building of this homestead,

Oft his hair exposed to tempest,

And his hair was much disordered.

Often has our host so noble,

On the rocks his gloves left lying,

Lost his hat among the fir-trees,

In the marsh has sunk his stockings.

“Often has our host so noble

In the early morning hours,

When no others had arisen,

And unheard by all the village,

Left the cheerful fire behind him,

Watched for birds in wattled wigwam,

And the thorns his head were combing,

Dew his handsome eyes was washing.

“Thus receives our host so noble,

In his home his friends around him;

Filled the benches are with singers,

And with joyous guests the windows,

And the floor with talking people,

Porches, too, with people shouting,

Near the walls with people standing,

Near the fence with people walking,

Through the yard are folks parading.

Children on the ground are creeping.

“Now I first have praised the master,

I will praise our gracious hostess,

She who has prepared the banquet,

And has filled the table for us.

“Large the loaves that she has baked us,

And she stirred us up thick porridge,

With her hands that move so quickly,

With her soft and tenfold fingers,

And she let the bread rise slowly,

And the guests with speed she feasted;

Pork she gave them in abundance,

Gave them cakes piled up in dishes,

And the knives were duly sharpened,

And the pointed blades pressed downward,

As the salmon were divided,

And the pike were split asunder.

“Often has our noble mistress,

She the most accomplished housewife,

Risen up before the cockcrow,

And before the hen’s son hastened,

That she might prepare the needful,

That the work might all be finished,

That the beer might be concocted,

And the ale be ready for us.

“Well indeed our noble hostess,

And this most accomplished housewife,

Best of ale for us concocted,

And the finest drink set flowing.

’Tis composed of malted barley,

And of malt the very sweetest,

And with wood she has not turned it,

With a stake she has not moved it,

Only with her hands has raised it,

Only with her arms has turned it,

In the bathroom filled with vapour,

On the boarding, scoured so cleanly.

“Nor did she, our noble hostess,

And this most accomplished mistress,

Let the germs mature them fully,

While on ground the malt was lying.

Oft she went into the bathroom,

Went alone, at dead of midnight,

Fearing not the wolf should harm her,

Nor the wild beasts of the forest.

“Now that we have praised the hostess,

Let us also praise the inviter;

Who was chosen as inviter,

And upon the road to guide us?

Best inviter of the village,

Best of guides in all the village.

“There we look on our inviter,

Clad in coat from foreign countries;

Round his arms ’tis tightly fitted,

Neatly round his waist ’tis fitted.

“There we look on our inviter,

In a narrow cloak attired;

On the sand the skirts are sweeping,

On the ground the train is sweeping.

Of his shirt we see a little,

Only see a very little,

As if Kuutar’s self had wove it,

And the tin-adorned one wrought it.

“Here we look on our inviter,

Belted with a belt of woollen,

Woven by the Sun’s fair daughter,

By her beauteous fingers broidered,

In the times ere fire existed,

And when all unknown was fire.

“Here we look on our inviter,

With his feet in silken stockings,

And with silk are bound his stockings,

And his garters are of satin,

And with gold are all embroidered,

And are all adorned with silver.

“Here we look on our inviter,

Best of Saxon shoes he’s wearing,

Like the swans upon the river,

Or the ducks that swim beside them,

Or the geese among the thickets,

Birds of passage in the forests.

“Here we look on our inviter,

With his golden locks all curling,

And his golden beard is plaited,

On his head a lofty helmet:

Up among the clouds it rises,

Through the forest’s glancing summit;

Such a one you could not purchase

For a hundred marks or thousand.

“Now that I have praised the inviter,

I will also praise the bridesmaid.

Whence has come to us the bridesmaid,

Whence was she, the happiest, chosen?

“Thence has come to us the bridesmaid,

Thence was she, the happiest, chosen,

Where is Tanikka’s strong fortress,

From without the new-built castle.

“No, she came from other regions,

Not at all from such a region;

Thence has come to us the bridesmaid,

Thence was she, the happiest, chosen,

Brought to us across the water,

And across the open ocean.

“No, she came from other regions,

Not at all from such a region,

Grew like strawberry in the country,

On the heaths where cranberries flourish,

On the field of beauteous herbage,

On the heath of golden flowerets,

Thence has come to us the bridesmaid,

Thence was she, the happiest, chosen.

“And the bridesmaid’s mouth is pretty,

As the spindle used in Suomi,

And the bridesmaid’s eyes are sparkling,

As the stars that shine in heaven,

Gleaming are the damsel’s temples,

As upon the lake the moonlight.

“Here we look upon our bridesmaid;

Round her neck a chain all golden,

On her head a golden head-dress,

On her hands are golden bracelets,

Golden rings upon her fingers,

In her ears are golden earrings,

Loops of gold upon her temples,

And her brows are bead-adorned.

“And I thought the moon was shining,

When her golden clasp was gleaming,

And I thought the sun was shining,

When I saw her collar gleaming,

And I thought a ship was sailing,

When I saw her head-dress moving.

“Now that I have praised the bridesmaid,

I will glance at all the people;

Very handsome are the people,

Stately are the aged people,

And the younger people pretty,

And the householders are handsome.

“I have gazed at all the people,

And I knew them all already;

But before it never happened,

Nor in future times will happen,

That we meet so fine a household,

Or we meet such handsome people.

Where the old folks are so stately,

And the younger people pretty.

Clothed in white are all the people,

Like the forest in the hoarfrost,

Under like the golden dawning:

Over like the morning twilight.

“Easy to obtain was silver,

Gold among the guests was scattered,

In the grass were littered purses,

In the lanes were bags of money,

For the guests who were invited,

For the guests most greatly honoured.”

Väinämöinen, old and steadfast,

Of the song the mighty pillar,

After this his sledge ascended,

Homeward drove upon his journey,

And he sang his songs for ever,

Sang, and chanted spells of magic,

Sang a song, and sang a second,

But, as he the third was singing,

Clashed against a rock the runners,

Crashed the shafts against a tree-stump,

And the sledge broke off his chanting,

And the runners stopped his singing,

And the shafts in fragments shattered,

And the boards broke all asunder.

Spoke the aged Väinämöinen,

In the very words which follow,

“Are there none among the youthful,

Of the rising generation,

Or perchance among the aged,

Of the sinking generation,

Who to Tuonela can wander,

And can go to Mana’s country,

Thence to fetch me Tuoni’s auger,

Bring me Mana’s mighty auger,

That a new sledge I may fashion,

Or repair my sledge that’s broken?”

But said all the younger people,

And the aged people answered:

“There are none among the youthful,

None at all among the aged,

None of race so highly noble,

None is such a mighty hero,

As to Tuonela to travel,

Journey to the land of Mana,

Thence to bring you Tuoni’s auger,

And from Mana’s home to bring it,

That a new sledge you may fashion,

Or repair the sledge that’s broken.”

Then the aged Väinämöinen,

He the great primeval minstrel,

Went again to Tuoni’s country,

Journeyed to the home of Mana,

Fetched from Tuonela the auger,

Brought from Mana’s home the auger.

Then the aged Väinämöinen

Sang a blue wood up before him,

In the forest rose an oak-tree,

And a splendid mountain-ashtree,

And from these a sledge he fashioned,

And he shaped his runners from them,

And for shafts prepared them likewise,

And the frame he thus constructed,

Made a sledge to suit his purpose,

And a new sledge he constructed.

In the shafts the horse he harnessed,

Yoked before the sledge the chestnut,

In the sledge himself he seated,

And upon the seat he sat him,

And without the whip the courser,

Sped, by beaded whip unharassed,

To his long-accustomed fodder,

To the food that waited for him,

And he brought old Väinämöinen,

He the great primeval minstrel,

To his own door, widely open,

To the threshold brought him safely.

 The proposition does not strike one; on the contrary it seems to run opposite to the natural workings of causes and effects

But it shews the weakness and imbecility of human reason.

—Impetuous fluid! the moment thou presses against the flood-gates of the brain—see how they give way!

 than fifty, dressed in a very bright blue coat with resplendent buttons, black trousers, and the thinnest possible pair of highly-polished boots. A gold eye-glass was suspended from his neck by a short broad black ribbon; a gold snuff-box was lightly clasped in his left hand; gold rings innumerable, glittered on his fingers; and a large diamond pin set in gold glistened in his shirt frill. He had a gold watch, and a gold curb chain with large gold seals; and he carried a pliant ebony cane with a heavy gold top. His linen was of the very whitest, finest, and stiffest; his wig of the glossiest, blackest, and curliest. His snuff was princes' mixture; his scent bouquet du roi. His features were contracted into a perpetual smile; and his teeth were in such perfect order that it was difficult at a small distance to tell the real from the false.

"Mr. Pickwick," said Mr. Dowler; "my friend, Angelo Cyrus Bantam, Esquire, M.C. Bantam; Mr. Pickwick. Know each other."

"Welcome to Ba—ath, sir. This is indeed an acquisition. Most welcome to Ba—ath, sir. It is long—very long, Mr. Pickwick, since you drank the waters. It appears an age, Mr. Pickwick. Re—markable!"

Such were the expressions with which Angelo Cyrus Bantam, Esquire, M.C., took Mr. Pickwick's hand; retaining it in his, meantime, and shrugging up his shoulders with a constant succession of bows, as if he really could not make up his mind to the trial of letting it go again.

"It is a very long time since I drank the waters, certainly," replied Mr. Pickwick; "for to the best of my knowledge, I was never here before."

"Never in Ba—ath, Mr. Pickwick!" exclaimed the Grand Master, letting the hand fall in astonishment. "Never in Ba—ath! He! he! Mr. Pickwick, you are a wag. Not bad, not bad. Good, good. He! he! he! R—markable!"

"To my shame, I must say that I am perfectly serious," rejoined Mr. Pickwick. "I really never was here before."

"Oh, I see," exclaimed the Grand Master, looking extremely

 Cos if it is, jist you step into him with that 'ere card, and say Mr. Veller's a waitin', will you?" said Sam. And saying it, he very coolly walked into the hall, and sat down.

The powdered-headed footman slammed the door very hard, and scowled very grandly; but both the slam and the scowl were lost upon Sam, who was regarding a mahogany umbrella stand with every outward token of critical approval.

Apparently, his master's reception of the card had impressed the powdered-headed footman in Sam's favour, for when he came back from delivering it, he smiled in a friendly manner, and said that the answer would be ready directly.

"Werry good," said Sam. "Tell the old gen'lm'n not to put himself in a perspiration. No hurry, six-foot. I've had my dinner."

"You dine early, sir," said the powdered-headed footman.

"I find I gets on better at supper when I does," replied Sam.

"Have you been long in Bath, sir?" inquired the powdered-headed footman. "I have not had the pleasure of hearing of you before."

"I haven't created any wery surprisin' sensation here, as yet," rejoined Sam, "for me and the other fash'nables only come last night."

"Nice place, sir," said the powdered-headed footman.

"Seems so," observed Sam.

"Pleasant society, sir," remarked the powdered-headed footman. "Very agreeable servants, sir."

"I should think they wos," replied Sam. "Affable, unaffected, say-nothin'-to-nobody sort o' fellers."

"Oh, very much so, indeed, sir," said the powdered-headed footman, taking Sam's remark as a high compliment. "Very much so indeed. Do you do anything in this way, sir?" inquired the tall footman, producing a small snuff-box with a fox's head on the top of it.

"Not without sneezing," replied Sam.

"Why, it is difficult, sir, I confess," said the tall footman.

 Mr. Winkle professed his heartfelt regret to hear it, and begged to know whether he could do anything to alleviate the sorrows of the suffering student.

"Nothing, my dear boy, nothing," said Ben. "You recollect Arabella, Winkle? My sister Arabella—a little girl, Winkle, with black eyes—when we were down at Wardle's? I don't know whether you happened to notice her, a nice little girl, Winkle. Perhaps my features may recal her countenance to your recollection?"

Mr. Winkle required nothing to recal the charming Arabella to his mind; and it was rather fortunate he did not, for the features of her brother Benjamin would unquestionably have proved but an indifferent refresher to his memory. He answered, with as much calmness as he could assume, that he perfectly remembered the young lady referred to, and sincerely trusted she was in good health.

"Our friend Bob is a delightful fellow, Winkle," was the only reply of Mr. Ben Allen.

"Very," said Mr. Winkle; not much relishing this close connexion of the two names.

"I designed 'em for each other; they were made for each other, sent into the world for each other, born for each other, Winkle," said Mr. Ben Allen, setting down his glass with emphasis. "There's a special destiny in the matter, my dear sir; there's only five years' difference between 'em, and both their birthdays are in August."

Mr. Winkle was too anxious to hear what was to follow, to express much wonderment at this extraordinary coincidence, marvellous as it was; so Mr. Ben Allen, after a tear or two, went on to say, that, notwithstanding all his esteem and respect and veneration for his friend, Arabella had unaccountably and undutifully evinced the most determined antipathy to his person.

"And I think," said Mr. Ben Allen, in conclusion, "I think there's a prior attachment."

 back, and uttered a half-suppressed scream. Sam was scarcely less stupefied, for in the countenance of the well-shaped female servant, he beheld the very eyes of his Valentine, the pretty housemaid from Mr. Nupkins's.

"Wy, Mary my dear!" said Sam.

"Lauk, Mr. Weller," said Mary, "how you do frighten one!"

Sam made no verbal answer to this complaint, nor can we precisely say what reply he did make. We merely know that after a short pause Mary said, "Lor do adun, Mr. Weller!" and that his hat had fallen off a few moments before—from both of which tokens we should be disposed to infer that one kiss or more, had passed between the parties.

"Why, how did you come here?" said Mary, when the conversation to which this interruption had been offered, was resumed.

"O' course I came to look arter you, my darlin," replied Mr. Weller; for once permitting his passion to get the better of his veracity.

"And how did you know I was here?" inquired Mary. "Who could have told you that I took another service at Ipswich, and that they afterwards moved all the way here? Who could have told you that, Mr. Weller?"

"Ah to be sure," said Sam with a cunning look, "that's the pint. Who could ha' told me?"

"It wasn't Mr. Muzzle, was it?" inquired Mary.

"Oh, no," replied Sam, with a solemn shake of the head, "it warn't him."

"It must have been the cook," said Mary.

"O' course it must," said Sam. but "Well, I never heard the like of that!" exclaimed Mary.

"No more did I," said Sam. "But Mary, my dear:" here Sam's manner grew extremely affectionate: "Mary, my dear, I've got another affair in hand as is wery pressin'. There's one o' my governor's friends—Mr. Winkle, you remember him."

"Him in the green coat?" said Mary. "Oh, yes, I remember him."

 He waited so long without this anxiously expected event occurring, that he began to think it was not going to take place at all, when he heard light footsteps upon the gravel, and immediately afterwards beheld Arabella walking pensively down the garden. As soon as she came nearly below the tree, Sam began, by way of gently indicating his presence, to make sundry diabolical noises similar to those which would probably be natural to a person of middle age who had been afflicted with a combination of inflammatory sore throat, croup, and hooping-cough, from his earliest infancy.

Upon this, the young lady cast a hurried glance towards the spot from whence the dreadful sounds proceeded; and her previous alarm being not at all diminished when she saw a man among the branches, she would most certainly have decamped, and alarmed the house, had not fear fortunately deprived her of the power of moving, and caused her to sink down on a garden seat; which happened by good luck to be near at hand.

"She's a goin' off," soliloquised Sam in great perplexity. "Wot a thing it is, as these here young creeturs will go a faintin' avay just wen they oughtn't to. Here, young 'ooman, Miss Sawbones, Mrs. Vinkle, don't!"

Whether it was the magic of Mr. Winkle's name, or the coolness of the open air, or some recollection of Mr. Weller's voice, that revived Arabella, matters not. She raised her head and languidly inquired, "Who's that, and what do you want?"

"Hush," said Sam, swinging himself on to the wall, and crouching there in as small a compass as he could reduce himself to, "only me, miss, only me."

"Mr. Pickwick's servant;" said Arabella, earnestly.

"The wery same, miss," replied Sam. "Here's Mr. Vinkle reg'larly sewed up vith desperation, miss."

"Ah!" said Arabella, drawing nearer the wall.

"Ah indeed," said Sam. "Ve thought've should ha' been obliged to straightveskit him last night; he's been a ravin' all

 to side, and moving in an orbit as eccentric as comets themselves.

The scientific gentleman was a bachelor. He had no wife to call in and astonish, so he rang the bell for his servant.

"Pruffle," said the scientific gentleman, "there is something very extraordinary in the air to-night. Did you see that?" said the scientific gentleman, pointing out of the window, as the light again became visible.

"Yes, I did, sir."

"What do you think of it, Pruffle?"

"Think of it, sir?"

"Yes. You have been bred up in this country. What should you say was the cause of those lights, now?"

The scientific gentleman smilingly anticipated Pruffle's reply that he could assign no cause for them at all. Pruffle meditated.

"I should say it was thieves, sir," said Pruffle at length.

"You're a fool, and may go down stairs," said the scientific gentleman.

"Thank you, sir," said Pruffle. And down he went.

But the scientific gentleman could not rest under the idea of the ingenious treatise he had projected being lost to the world, which must inevitably be the case if the speculation of the ingenious Mr. Pruffle were not stifled in its birth. He put on his hat and walked quickly down the garden, determined to investigate the matter to the very bottom.

Now, shortly before the scientific gentleman walked out into the garden, Mr. Pickwick had run down the lane as fast as he could, to convey a false alarm that somebody was coming that way; occasionally drawing back the slide of the dark lantern to keep himself from the ditch. The alarm was no sooner given, than Mr. Winkle scrambled back over the wall, and Arabella ran into the house; the garden-gate was shut, and the three adventurers were making the best of their way down the lane, when they were startled by the scientific gentleman unlocking his garden-gate.

 disappointed, being forced to serve as a common soldier: Being however a good penman, well skilled in casting accounts, and leading a sober and regular life, I soon rose so high in the good opinion of my superiors, that I was appointed serjeant after nine months service. I certainly should have been promoted higher if I had continued to be zealous in the service, sober and attentive to my superiors, but my patience was exhausted, and I relapsed again into my former dissipations."

"A dissolute life requires money, and the desire of getting it plunges him who has once been led astray from the path of virtue, soon into his former errors. I had once more recouserecourse [sic] to my juggling tricks, pretending to possess a supernatural skill, in detecting thefts, in tossing up the cup, and in telling people's fortunes; I conjured up spirits, dispelled the power of witchcraft, and raised up the dead: in short, I did every thing in my power to drain the purses of the weak and credulous."

 "Don't I?" replied Mr. Roker, with indignant astonishment; "why shouldn't I?"

"Live! Live down there!" exclaimed Mr. Pickwick.

"Live down there! Yes, and die down there, too, wery often!" replied Mr. Roker; "and what of that? Who's got to say anything agin it? Live down there! Yes, and a wery good place it is to live in, ain't it?"

As Roker turned somewhat fiercely upon Mr. Pickwick in saying this, and, moreover muttered in an excited fashion certain unpleasant invocations concerning his own eyes, limbs, and circulating fluids, the latter gentleman deemed it advisable to pursue the discourse no further. Mr. Roker then proceeded to mount another staircase, as dirty as that which led to the place which had just been the subject of discussion, in which ascent he was closely followed by Mr. Pickwick and Sam.

"There," said Mr. Roker, pausing for breath when they reached another gallery of the same dimensions as the one below, "this is the coffee-room flight; the one above's the third, and the one above that's the top; and the room where you're a-going to sleep to-night is the warden's room, and it's this way—come on." Having said all this in a breath, Mr. Roker mounted another flight of stairs, with Mr. Pickwick and Sam Weller following at his heels.

These staircases received light from sundry windows placed at some little distance above the floor, and looking into a gravelled area bounded by a high brick wall, with iron chevaux-de-frise at the top. This area, it appeared from Mr. Roker's statement, was the racket-ground; and it further appeared, on the testimony of the same gentleman, that there was a smaller area in that portion of the prison which was nearest Farringdon Street, denominated and called "the Painted Ground," from the fact of its walls having once displayed the semblances of various men-of-war in full sail, and other artistical effects achieved in bygone times by some imprisoned draughtsman in his leisure hours.

 Mr. Pickwick's face had settled down into an expression of blank amazement and perplexity, quite curious to behold.

"Snodgrass! Since last Christmas!" were the first broken words that issued from the lips of the confounded gentleman.

"Since last Christmas," replied Wardle; "that's plain enough, and very bad spectacles we must have worn, not to have discovered it before."

"I don't understand it," said Mr. Pickwick, ruminating; "I really cannot understand it."

"It's easy enough to understand," replied the choleric old gentleman. "If you had been a younger man, you would have been in the secret long ago; and besides," added Wardle after a moment's hesitation, "the truth is, that, knowing nothing of this matter, I have rather pressed Emily for four or five months past, to receive favourably (if she could; I would never attempt to force a girl's inclinations) the addresses of a young gentleman down in our neighbourhood. I have no doubt that, girl-like, to enhance her own value and increase the arlour of Mr. Snodgrass, she has represented this matter in very glowing colours, and that they have both arrived at the conclusion that they are a terribly persecuted pair of unfortunates, and have no resource but clandestine matrimony or charcoal. Now the question is, what's to be done?"

"What have you done?" inquired Mr. Pickwick.

"I!"

"I mean what did you do when your married daughter told you this?"

"Oh, I made a fool of myself, of course," rejoined Wardle.

"Just so," interposed Perker, who had accompanied this dialogue with sundry twitchings of his watch-chain, vindictive rubbings of his nose, and other symptoms of impatience. "That's very natural; but how?"

"I went into a great passion and frightened my mother into a fit," said Wardle.

"That was judicious," remarked Perker; "and what else?"

"I fretted and fumed all next day, and raised a great

 "This trade was profitable, and very advantageous in many respects; but it lost me the esteem of my superiors, stained my character, poisoned my heart, and reduced me at last to that despicable sort of people, whose heedlessness bids defiance to every obstacle, and who have nothing more at heart than how they may enrich themselves to the detriment of their fellow creatures: In short, I became a rogue of the blackest die."

"It was natural that my cheats now and then miscarried before I arrived at that degree of skill, which, in later years, has crowned with success most of my roguish tricks. My superiors, who had warned me many a time against commiting such villainous actions, became at last tired of admonishing and correcting me by words, and a spirit which I had conjured up played his part so bad, that they found themselves obliged to make an example of me, and to banish me the country."

11. Kulta, “golden,” here rendered “dearest,” is a term constantly applied in the Kalevala to anything dear or precious.

20. “Pohja, the North, or Pohjola, the North Land, is chiefly used for the dark North, where the sun is hidden. Poetically used for a homestead in the Kalevala. Occasionally it is used as synonymous with Lapland.” (K. K.)

21. When singing to the accompaniment of a harp, two Finns clasp their hands together, and sway backwards and forwards, in the manner described in the text. Compare Acerbi’s Travels to the North Cape, I., chaps. xx. and xxiii., and the illustration opposite his Vol. I., p. 226.

61. Probably the honey of humble-bees (Bombus) is here meant, or the expression may be merely figurative.

63, 64. The metre allows the translation of the names of the cows to be inserted here.

110. Ilmatar, the Daughter of the Air;—tar is the usual feminine suffix in Finnish, and is generally to be understood to mean “daughter of ——.” In the following passages we have the combined Finnish version of the widespread cosmogonical myths of the Divine Spirit brooding over the waters of Chaos; and the Mundane Egg. In the First Recension of the Kalevala, however, and in many Finnish ballads, an eagle is said to have built her nest on the knees of Väinämöinen after he was thrown into the sea by the Laplander, and the Creation-Myth is thus transferred to him.

229-244. In the Scandinavian Mythology the world was created in a similar manner by Othin and his brothers from the body of the giant Ymir.

289. Vaka vanha Väinämöinen—these are the usual epithets applied to Väinämöinen in the Kalevala. “Vanha” means old; “vaka” is variously interpreted: I have used “steadfast” by Prof. Krohn’s advice, though I think “lusty” might be a better rendering.

320. The ring-finger is usually called the “nameless finger” in Finnish.

27. The Bird Cherry (Prunus Padus).

29. The Mountain Ash, or Rowan Tree, is a sacred tree in Finland, as in Scotland.

320 83. The Great Oak-tree is a favourite subject in Finnish and Esthonian ballads.

117. Finnish and Esthonian water-heroes are sometimes described as entirely composed of copper.

211. Compare the account of the breaking up of the Sampo, and the dispersal of its fragments, in Runo XLIII.

245. The summer ermine is the stoat, which turns white in winter in the North, when it becomes the ermine. The squirrel also turns grey in the North in winter.

376. The cuckoo is regarded as a bird of good omen.

15. We here find Väinämöinen, the primeval minstrel and culture-hero, the first-born of mortals, living in an already populated world. There seems to be a similar discrepancy in Gen. iv. 14-17.

35. Women were held in great respect in heroic times in most Northern countries.

58. “I will bewitch him who tries to bewitch me.” (K. K.)

72. A gold-adorned, or perhaps merely handsome, sledge.

154. Probably another epithet for the seal.

156. The powan, or fresh-water herring (Coregonus), of which there are several marine and fresh-water species. They are chiefly lake-fish of the Northern Hemisphere, and in the British Islands are better known in Scotland and Ireland, and in the North of England, than in the South.

168. The word used here may also mean the elk or ox.

230. The Arch of Heaven in the Kalevala means the rainbow.

231, 232. The Sun and Moon are male deities in Finnish, with sons and daughters.

233. The constellation of the Great Bear.

273. Most of the heroes of the Kalevala, except Kullervo, have black hair, and the heroines, except the wife of Ilmarinen, golden hair.

411, 412. A common ransom in Finnish and Esthonian stories.

459. The episode of Aino is a great favourite in Finland, and the name is in common use. The story often furnishes material to poets, sculptors, etc.

533. Different stories are told of the origin of both Väinämöinen and Ilmarinen, and they are often called brothers.

4. Bath-whisks are used to heighten the circulation after bathing. “The leaves are left on the stems. The bath-whisks for the winter are all made early in the summer, when the leaves are softest. Of course they become quite dry, but before using, they are steeped in hot water till they become soft and fragrant.” (A. M.)

75. “The store-houses where the peasant girls keep their clothes and

 he it is who is made to be on the left hand. This Ḥeru-Beḥuṭet on whom the goddess Uatchit is placed is in the form of a serpent.

As concerning Ḥeru-Beḥuṭet, the great god, the lord of heaven, the lord of Mesent, the president of the two Ȧterti of the South and North, Rā Ḥeru-khuti set it (i.e., the Winged Disk) in his every place, to overthrow the enemies in every place wherein they are. And he shall be called President of the two Ȧterti of the South and North because of this from this day onwards.

Rh ornaments are sometimes very pretty, and the girls always sleep there in summer. There are other store-houses for food.” (A. M.)

121. According to Speke, Central African women are compelled to drink large quantities of milk, to make them inordinately fat, which is considered a great beauty.

206. Fuligala glacialis.

295. Prof. Krohn thinks the sea and not a lake is here intended.

308. This passage is hardly intelligible. “I have heard some people suggest that Aino perhaps took a birch branch to be used as a bath-whisk.” (A. M.)

377. There are many popular tales in Finnish relating to animals, especially the bear, wolf, and fox, but this is the only illustration of the true “beast-epos” in the Kalevala.

413. “The sauna, or bath-house, is always a separate building; and there Finnish people take extremely hot baths almost every evening.” (A. M.) It is also used for confinements.

220. Here a human mother, rather than Ilmatar, seems to be ascribed to Väinämöinen. Visits to parents’ graves for advice and assistance are common in Scandinavian and Esthonian literature. Commentators have also quoted the story of Achilles and Thetis, but this is hardly a parallel case.

120. This passage is again inconsistent with the legend of Väinämöinen being the son of Ilmatar.

19. The word used here is “poika,” which literally means a boy, or a son.

51, 52. The original admirably expresses the hovering motion of the bird:

Lenteleikse, liiteleikse,

Katseleikse, käänteleikse.

142. In the original “the song of a cock's child.”

177, 178. Weeping appears no more disgraceful to the heroes of the Kalevala than to those of the Iliad. Still, Väinämöinen not unfrequently plays a very undignified part when in difficulties.

241. Louhi recognized him, though he would not mention his name.

286. “Virsu is a shoe made of birch bark.” (A.M.)

311. It appears that the magic mill called a Sampo could only be forged by a competent smith from materials which Louhi alone possessed, and which, perhaps, she could not again procure. Otherwise

 tells us that "both were descended from the same parents, and born in the same region, but that Zeus was the elder and knew most"; plainly intimating thereby that the empire of the former was more august and honourable than that of his brother, as by means of his age he was his superior, and more advanced in wisdom and science. Nay, 'tis my opinion, I own, that even the blessedness of that eternity which is the portion of the Deity himself consists in that universal knowledge of all nature which accompanies it; for setting this aside, eternity might be more properly styled an endless duration than an enjoyment of existence.

To desire, therefore, and covet after truth, those truths more especially which concern the divine nature, is to aspire to be partakers of that nature itself, and to profess that all our studies and inquiries are devoted to the acquisition of holiness. This occupation is surely more truly religious than any external purifications or mere service of the temple can be. But more especially must such a disposition of mind be highly acceptable to that goddess to whose service you are dedicated, for her especial characteristics are wisdom and foresight, and her very name seems to express the peculiar relation which she bears to knowledge. For "Isis" is a Greek word, and means "knowledge," and

UNCLASSIFIED TOP SECRET////NOFORN 10, 2004, to the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Eastern District of Virginia. The inspector general report concluded that there was no corroboration of the linguist's allegation, stating, "[t]here is no evidence that a cloth was placed over Abu Hazim's face during water dousing or that his breathing was impaired."

 * 5. Hambali Fabricates Information While Being Subjected to the CIA's Enhanced Interrogation Techniques

( TS////NF ) In the summer of 2003, the CIA captured three Southeast Asian operatives: Zubair, Lillie, and Hambali. (These captures are discussed later in this summary in the section entitled, "The Capture of Hambii.")

( TS////NF ) In August 2003, Hambali was captured and transferred to CIA custody. Despite assessments that Hambali was cooperative in the interview process without "the use of more intrusive standard interrogation procedures much less the enhanced measures," CIA interrogators requested and obtained approval to use the CIA's enhanced interrogation techniques on Hambali approximately a month after his transfer to CIA custody. In late 2003, Hambali recanted most of the significant information he had provided to interrogators during the use of the CIA's enhanced interrogation techniques, recantations CIA officers assessed to be credible.

322 Ilmarinen could have forged another for himself, and it would have been unnecessary for the heroes to steal it. The chain forged by the dwarfs, according to the Prose Edda, for binding the wolf Fenrir, was also composed of materials which could not again be procured. “It was fashioned out of six things; to wit, the noise made by the footfall of a cat, the beards of women, the roots of stones, the sinews of bears, the breath of fish, and the spittle of birds.”

3, 4. The daughter of Louhi is never mentioned again in connection with the rainbow; and it is quite incorrect to call her the Maiden of the Rainbow, as some writers have done, for no such title is ever applied to her in the poem.

35. There are so many instances of maidens being carried off, or enticed into sledges, in the Kalevala, that it seems almost to have been a recognized legal form of marriage by capture.

57. Finnish magicians profess to understand the language of birds; but the passage in the text is probably intended only in jest.

152. In the Icelandic saga of Grettir, the hero mortally wounds himself in the leg while trying to chop up a piece of driftwood on which a witch had laid her curse.

179. The Finns supposed that if the origin of any hostile agent was known, and could be recited to it, its power for evil was at an end. In Denmark, the naming of any person or thing was an evil omen, and liable to bring about its destruction.

217, 218. Finnish hamlets are sometimes built on a hillside in the manner described.

35, 36. Here we seem to have an allusion to the first chapter of Genesis.

44. The same epithet, Luonnotar, is sometimes applied to Ilmatar, and thus Väinämöinen might literally be called the brother of Iron.

111, 112. Pallas Athene sprang armed from the brain of Zeus; Kama, in India, the son of the Sun, was born with armour and earrings; and Mexitli in Mexico was born with a spear in his hand.

231. Hornets often build their nests under the eaves of houses.

242. Both frogs and toads exude a more or less poisonous secretion from the skin.

433. Honeydew seems to be meant here.

525, 526. An imaginary mountain to which the sorcerers professed to be able to banish pain and sickness.

306. Compare the account of the forging of the Gold and Silver Bride in Runo XXXVII.

Rh 311. “Ilmarinen first employs ordinary servants, and then calls the winds to his assistance.” (K. K.)

331. In the Icelandic sagas, we read of the sword Tyrfing, forged by dwarfs, which, if ever drawn, could not again be sheathed till it had slain at least one victim.

332. Literally, “on best days.”

414. In the story of Ala Ed-Deen Abush-Shamat, in the 1001 Nights, we read of a magic bead with five facets, on which were engraved a camel, an armed horseman, a pavilion, a couch, etc., according to the use intended to be made of each facet.

31-42. Salme and Linda are similarly wooed by the Sun, the Moon, and a Star in the Esthonian poem, Kalevipoeg (see Kirby’s Hero of Esthonia, I., pp. 10-15).

264-266. These names mean respectively Blackies, Strawberries, Cranberries. “I think Lemminkainen means that he has no cows, and only calls these different berries his cows.” (A.M.)

306. Lemminkainen appears to have been afraid that some one else might carry oft his wife, if she showed herself in public (especially Untamo, says Prof. Krohn).

385. The Snow Bunting (Plectrophanes nivalis), a white bird more or less varied with black.

25. The meaning is a little uncertain. Literally, “the only boy,” as Madame Malmberg suggests. The commentary renders it, “the gallant youth.”

93. The Finns and Lapps often hide money in the ground. The word used in l. 94 is “penningin,” from “penni,” a word common to most Teutonic and Northern languages.

211, 212. Such omens of death are common in fairy tales; as, for instance, the bleeding knives in the story of the Envious Sisters in the 1001 Nights. The bleeding trees in medieval romance belong to rather a different category of ideas.

233. Lemminkainen seems to have hidden himself to escape further remonstrances from his mother and Kyllikki.

262. Probably a creature like a kelpie or Phooka.

474. We are not told how Louhi escaped; but she seems to have come to no harm.

105. The part played by Hiisi in the Kalevala usually resembles that played by Loki in the Scandinavian Mythology.

324 109. Animals, etc., are often thus constructed in Finnish, Esthonian, and Siberian mythology by gods, demons, and magicians. They do not seem able to create from nothing, but to manufacture what they please or what they can from pre-existing materials, however incongruous.

111. I suppose rushes are here intended.

33. The word here translated “islands” properly means a wooded hill surrounded by marshland.

47, 48. Mielikki’s gold and silver are the spoils of the chase.

69. Honey is sometimes used in the Kalevala for anything sweet and agreeable, just as golden is used for anything beautiful.

103, 104. It appears that the hunter’s fortune in the chase was foretold by the rich or shabby garments worn by the forest-deities.

142. Finnish women often wear a blouse over their other garments.

216. Kuningas (king) is a Teutonic word, which rarely occurs in the Kalevala. The heroes are patriarchs, or chiefs of clans: not kings, as in Homer.

248. There is often much confusion of terms in the Kalevala. The creature here mentioned is generally called an elk, but often a reindeer, and in this line a camel-foal.

304. When the inferior deities are dear or too weak, the heroes appeal to the higher Gods.

308. The reference here seems to be to Gen. vii. 11. “The whole passage is of Christian origin.” (K. K.)

7. Compare Homer, Iliad, III., 311-314.

240. This episode slightly resembles the story of Isis and Osiris.

498. The constellation of Orion is variously called by the Finns, the Moonshine, the Sword of Kaleva, and the Scythe of Väinämöinen.

559-562. This conceit is common in fairy tales (especially in Russian ones) in the case of heroes wakened from the dead. Sometimes it takes a comic form; and sometimes, as in the present case, a pathetic one.

617 “Dirty-nosed” is a common opprobrious expression in Esthonia.

27. The account of the boatbuilding in “Hiawatha’s Sailing” is evidently imitated from this passage.

128. In Roman times divination from birds was chiefly taken from their flight or feeding.

20. Roads of this description are thoroughly Oriental in character.

86. In Icelandic sagas we often find heroes roused from their graves, but this is usually attempted in order to obtain a sword which has been buried with them.

93-104. Hiawatha was also swallowed by the sturgeon Nahma, but the circumstances were quite different.

211. Note the resonance of the line:

Kuusista kuhisevista.

237. Ahava, a dry cold wind that blows in March and April, probably corresponding to our cold spring east wind.

285, 286. Vipunen here refers to himself as a little man, which I presume is to be understood figuratively, as I have rendered it.

379. Compare Cuchullain’s wooing of Eimer in Irish story.

33. This episode is very like the story of Jason and Medea.

210. “The wolf Fenrir opens his enormous mouth; the lower jaw reaches to the earth, and the upper one to heaven, and would in fact reach still further were there space to admit of it.” (Prose Edda.)

217. Vetehinen, a water-spirit.

311. “Ukko’s bow” here means the rainbow, broken by the fiery eagle. It may be worth noting that in the Scandinavian Mythology, the sons of Fire (Muspell) are to ride over the rainbow, and break it to pieces, on their way to battle with the gods.

483. In the Danish Ballads there are several stories of children speaking in their cradles, but generally to vow vengenance against an enemy.

17. The Great Ox is a stock subject in Finnish and Esthonian ballad literature.

161. The Glutton or wolverine, a well-known animal in sub-Arctic Europe, Asia, and America.

182-186. These civilities sound very Oriental.

393. This curious passage may have been partly suggested by the “coats of skin,” and “the land flowing with milk and honey” of the Old Testament.

Then woke black Trafalgar.

Then rolled the deep alarm— The foeman's call to arm; And swiftly from our van There pass'd from man to man,

With hearts that beat to chase

194. In the Scandinavian Mythology the giantess Skadi was required to choose a husband from among the gods by looking at their feet only.

330. The usual word to express a long time is viikko, a week.

469, 470. These infernal damsels play various parts in the Kalevala, as boat-women, death-bringers, etc., and here we find them in the character of Furies.

487. The term “snowy month” is used for the period between Feb. 20 and March 20. I have rendered it March.

787-792. Perhaps this is only figurative, as in the case of the unpropitious forest-deities.

119. The roots of the marsh arum (Calla palustris), not a British plant, though naturalized in a pond at Ripley. The most usual substitute for more wholesome food in times of famine is bread composed of a mixture of fir-bark and rye.

240. Slav peasant women are said sometimes to regard beating as a sign of affection on the part of their husbands, but this does not seem to be the case with the Finns. In the Kalevala we read a good deal about wife-beating in theory, but find very little of it in practice; and even the licentious and violent Lemminkainen never thinks of beating his wife when he quarrels with her.

279-296. A similar story is told to the Princess by her confidante Olga, in the Russian opera Rusalka (water-nymph), Act III. scene i.

“And now I’d better sing a little song:

As they passed in our street,

A man besought his wife,

‘Why don’t you look pleasant?

You are my delight,

Darling Mashenka.’

“But the woman was obstinate,

And averted her little head;

‘Oh, I don’t want your caresses,

Nor your pretty speeches;

I’m not very well,

And I’ve got a headache.’

 CHAPTER 4

TEST OPERATIONS

CROSSROADS was primarily a sea-based operation. The islands of Bikini Atoll were used as sites for instrument locations and as recreation areas. However, a Navy Construction Battalion had quarters for its men on Bikini Island. Joint Task Force 1 (JTF 1) personnel lived at Kwajalein, Enewetak, and aboard ships in Bikini Lagoon. They commuted to their work sites in the target array or at island-based measurement sites.

In Test ABLE, the weapon was dropped from an Army Air Forces B-29 (nicknamed "Dave's Dream") based at Kwajalein. The bomb burst in the air 520 feet (158 meters) over the target ships. In the BAKER test the weapon was suspended in a waterproof container 90 feet (27 meters) below LSM-50, anchored at the center of the target fleet. A third test, to have been called CHARLIE, would have been a deep underwater test, but it was cancelled after Test BAKER.

The target fleet was unmanned for both tests and was anchored in the northeastern area of Bikini Lagoon off Bikini Island. For ABLE 22 landing craft and for BAKER 24 landing craft were beached on the lagoon side of this island, simulating boats in an amphibious operation. Military equipment (including airplanes), animals, and scientific instruments were aboard the target ships. Two anchored seaplanes were also part of the target fleet.

The manned JTF 1 support ships withdrew from the lagoon before the tests and remained east of the atoll or were at other atolls until it was safe to reenter the lagoon. Nontarget small craft were moored (unmanned) in the lagoon off Eneu Island about 5 nmi (9.3 km) south of the test area. Among these were several drone boats equipped to be remotely controlled. After each detonation the drones were guided by aircraft and USS Begor (APD-127) to areas in the target array to collect water samples and take radiation readings. After the water samples were collected, the drones were guided back to Begor where they were hosed down to remove radioactive contamination (Figure 20) and the samples removed. After each test the drones were followed by six patrol motor gunboats (PGMs) and twenty landing craft (LCPLs) with radiation monitors aboard. Radiation intensity measurements were sent by radio to the Radsafe Control Center. From this information and that gathered from aircraft equipped with radiation detectors, it was determined when a safe recovery to the lagoon by the main body of the fleet could be made.

PRE-TEST OPERATIONS

Preparation for the tests began in January 1946 when the atoll was surveyed by USS Allen M. Sumner (DD-692) and USS Bowditch (AGS-4). The survey was finished in April.

are those commands which are imperative (farz); but which, if one person in eight or ten perform, it is equivalent to all having performed it.

1. To return a salutation.

2. To visit the sick, and inquire after their welfare.

3. To follow a bier on foot to the grave.

4. To accept an invitation.

5. To reply to a sneeze, e. g. if a person sneeze, and say immediately afterwards, "God be praised" (Alhamdo lillah), it is incumbent upon at least one of the party to exclaim, "God have mercy on you" (Yarhamuk Allah).

There is an interesting chapter on the custom of saluting after sneezing in Isaac D'Israeli's "Curiosities of Literature," from which it appears that it is almost universal amongst nations.

“But under a birch tree

The man taught his wife;

‘Wait a bit, my darling,

I’ll beat that tune out of you,

In my own way.’

“Then the woman was sorry,

Bowed low as the waistband.

‘Don’t frighten yourself, dearest,

And do not be troubled,

I find myself better,

My headache has gone.’“

446, 450, 454. The commentary explains the word used here to mean “wander round thee,” an alteration which I consider unnecessary except in the last line.

(lit. "nature") is said to be certain ancient practices of the prophets before the time of Muhammad, which have not been forbidden by him.

In the Hadís "Muslim," the customs of fitrat are said to be ten in number.

1. The clipping of the mustachios, so that they do not enter the mouth.

2. Not cutting or shaving the beard.

3. Cleaning the teeth (i. e. miswák).

4. Cleansing the nostrils with water at the usual ablutions.

5. Cutting the nails.

6. Cleaning the finger-joints.

usual Muhammadan salutation is "as salámu ʾalekam," i. e. "The peace of God be with you."

When a person makes a "salám," and any of the assembly rise and return it, it is considered sufficient for the whole company.

The lesser number should always be the first to salute the greater; he who rides should salute him who walks; he who walks, him who stands; the stander, the sitter, etc. A man should not salute a woman on the road; and it is considered very disrespectful to salute with the left hand, that hand being used for legal ablutions.

The ordinary salute is made by raising the right hand either to the breast or to the forehead.

In Central Asia the salutation is generally given without any motion of the hand or body.

Rh Pupils salute their masters by kissing the hand or sleeve, which is the usual salutation made to men of eminent piety.

Homage is paid by kissing the feet of the ruler, or by kissing the ground or carpet.

In Afghanistan, conquered people pay homage by casting their turbans at the feet of the conqueror; and the heads of tribes often lessen the size of their turbans before appearing in the presence of their rulers.

 270 character of foreign nations, but as credulous as a nun."

Frustrated in that last appeal, the deputation returned to their party. A meeting was held very late on the Saturday night. What should the minority do? The bolder spirits proposed that they should attend the Public Session, and openly repeat their rejection of the doctrine. But the bolder spirits were few. Many shrank from such resolute action. They held it inconsistent with respect for the Pope to pronounce a public protest in his presence at the final Session when the doctrine would be proclaimed. They had misgivings as to the number who had the courage for such a stand. Diminishing numbers added point to this misgiving. Many Bishops had already left the city, others were going. Was it prudent to appear in protest shorn of their real numerical strength? Moreover, there were personal anxieties and fears. What if in the Public Session their protest was over-ruled? The determination of the majority to decree the dogma at any cost was now beyond dispute. Illusion was impossible. The formidable anathema attached to the decree might in another forty-eight hours apply to themselves. They were very uneasy in the papal precincts. They would infinitely prefer to take refuge in the safety of their own cathedral cities, far away from the entanglements, oppressive atmosphere, moral as well as physical, in Rome. Consequently caution prevailed. They composed a letter to the Pope, the last of their many futile protestations, couched in terms of deference, but registering their continued allegiance to their ancient principles. And by Sunday evening most of the seventy Bishops, representatives of some of the most illustrious

 ] Sees in Christendom, had left the city, and hastened away beyond the territorial dominions of Rome.

The last letter of the defeated minority called the Pope's attention to the number of disapproving prelates. To the eighty-eight who voted in the negative must be added the sixty-two others who expressed themselves dissatisfied; and, beyond these, another seventy who absented themselves, although present in Rome, and others still who had already left the city. The large element of disapproval would be obvious to the Pope, and also to the world. Since the hour when they recorded their vote against the doctrine, nothing had happened to change their opinion: on the contrary, much to strengthen it. Accordingly they now renew and endorse their declaration. Under these circumstances they have resolved to absent themselves from the Public Session of the 18th; their reverence for the Holy See not permitting them to proceed to an open refusal of a doctrine by which the Pope was personally affected. They would therefore leave the city and return to their dioceses with expressions of unaltered faith and obedience.

Among the signatures to this letter are the names of Cardinal Schwarzenberg; Darboy, Archbishop of Paris; Scherr, Archbishop of Munich; Kenrick, Archbishop of St Louis; Strossmayer, Bishop of Sirmium; Bishop Maret, Bishop Clifford of Clifton, Bishop Dupanloup, Bishop Hefele.

This final letter of disapproval, which sixty of the Bishops signed, was of course technically valueless. All speeches, protests, and letters count for nothing compared with the actual formal decision. If any protest were to have validity, it must be made precisely where the minority had not the courage to make it—in the Council at the final Session; to frustrate the

 ways, and knew nothing of what had passed upon the public roads, such as they were.

Why,' replied the peasant, the foreign lady that our Prince wished to wed, is married to a foreign noble of her own country; and the king proclaims the fact, and a great public festival besides; for now, of course, Prince Bladud will come back and marry the lady his father chose, who they say is as beautiful as the noonday sun. Your health, sir. God save the King!'

"The Prince remained to hear no more He fled from the spot, and plunged into the thickest recesses of a neighbouring wood. On, on, he wandered, night and day: beneath the blazing sun, and the cold pale moon: through the dry heat of noon, and the damp cold of night: in the grey light of morn, and the red glare of eve. So heedless was he of time or object, that being bound for Athens, he wandered as far out of his way as Bath.

"There was no city where Bath stands, then. There was no vestige of human habitation, or sign of man's resort, to bear the name; but there was the same noble country, the same broad expanse of hill and dale, the same beautiful channel stealing on, far away: the same lofty mountains which, like the troubles of life, viewed at a distance, and partially obscured by the bright mist of its morning, lose their ruggedness and asperity, and seem all ease and softness. Moved by the gentle beauty of the scene, the Prince sank upon the green turf, and bathed his swollen feet in his tears.

Oh!' said the unhappy Bladud, clasping his hands, and mournfully raising his eyes towards the sky, 'would that my wanderings might end here! Would that these grateful tears with which I now mourn hope misplaced, and love despised, might flow in peace for ever!'

"The wish was heard. It was in the time of the heathen deities, who used occasionally to take people at their words, with a promptness, in some cases extremely awkward. The ground opened beneath the Prince's feet; he sunk into the

 chairman, warming his hands at the attendant link-boy's torch.

"I wish he'd give 'em a squeeze and wake 'em," observed the long one.

"Knock again, will you, if you please," cried Mrs. Dowler from the chair. Knock two or three times, if you please."

The short man was quite willing to get the job over, as soon as possible; so he stood on the step, and gave four or five most startling double knocks, of eight or ten knocks a piece while the long man went into the road, and looked up at the windows for a light.

Nobody came. It was all as silent and dark as ever.

"Dear me!" said Mrs. Dowler. "You must knock again, if you please."

"Their ain't a bell, is there, ma'am?" said the short chairman.

"Yes, there is," interposed the link-boy, "I've been a ringing at it ever so long."

"It's only a handle," said Mrs. Dowler, "the wire's broken."

"I wish the servants' heads wos," growled the long man.

"I must trouble you to knock again, if you please," said Mrs. Dowler with the utmost politeness.

The short man did knock again several times, without producing the smallest effect. The tall man, growing very impatient, then relieved him, and kept on perpetually knocking double-knocks of two loud knocks each, like an insane postman.

At length Mr. Winkle began to dream that he was at a club, and that the members being very refractory, the chairman was obliged to hammer the table a good deal to preserve order; then, he had a confused notion of an auction room where there were no bidders, and the auctioneer was buying everything in; and ultimately he began to think it just within the bounds of possibility that somebody might be knocking at the street door. To make quite certain, however, he remained quiet in bed for ten minutes or so, and listened;

"The reports of the trial in those confounded papers," thought Mr. Pickwick. "They have heard all about me."

"You are the gentleman residing on Clapham Green," resumed Bantam, "who lost the use of his limbs from imprudently taking cold after port wine; who could not be moved in consequence of acute suffering, and who had the water from the King's Bath bottled at one hundred and three degrees, and sent by waggon to his bed-room in town, where he bathed, sneezed, and same day recovered. Very re-markable!"

Mr. Pickwick acknowledged the compliment which the supposition implied, but had the self-denial to repudiate it, notwithstanding; and taking advantage of a moment's silence on the part of the M.C., begged to introduce his friends, Mr. Tupman, Mr. Winkle, and Mr. Snodgrass. An introduction which overwhelmed the M.C. with delight and honour.

"Bantam," said Mr. Dowler, "Mr. Pickwick and his friends are strangers. They must put their names down. Where's the book?"

"The register of the distinguished visitors in Ba—ath will be at the Pump Room this morning at two o'clock," replied the M.C. "Will you guide our friends to that splendid building, and enable me to procure their autographs?"

"I will," rejoined Dowler. "This is a long call. It's time to go. I shall be here again in an hour. Come."

"This is a ball night," said the M.C., again taking Mr. Pickwick's hand, as he rose to go. "The ball-nights in Ba—ath are moments snatched from Paradise; rendered bewitching by music, beauty, elegance, fashion, etiquette, and—and—above all, by the absence of tradespeople, who are quite inconsistent with Paradise; and who have an amalgamation of themselves at the Guildhall every fortnight, which is, to say the least, remarkable. Good bye, good
