On the one hand is the artist poet, musician, or painter on the other, the artistic person to whom the artist appeals. Between the two, in some arts, stands the artistic interpreter the actor who embodies the aëry conceptions of the poet, the violinist or pianist who makes audible the inspirations of the musician.
In a body they chorused: "But, Pupasse!" "Chère Pupasse!" "Voyons, Pupasse!" "I assure you, Pupasse!" "On the cross, Pupasse!" "Ah, Pupasse!" "We implore you, Pupasse!" The only response tears, and "I shall tell Madame Joubert." Consultations, caucuses, individual appeals, general outbursts. Pupasse stood in the corner.
They differ not only because one has more mass and the other a more perfect shape, but because they have different kinds of existence. The one touches us as beings occupying a given position in space and time, and having feelings, desires, and purposes due to that position: it appeals to imagination, but appeals to much besides.
The confession to a deed that he has not committed, for the purpose of saving a weaker companion from punishment or injury, seems to be a type of lie that appeals strongly to most children. Again and again have boys and girls, too declared stoically that they were guilty of some dereliction of which they were quite innocent, to shield a friend.
The constitution of Frankland, agreed to on the 14th of November, 1785, appeals to us today rather by its spirit than by its practical provisions.
To the sympathetic a masterpiece becomes a living reality towards which we feel drawn in bonds of comradeship. The masters are immortal, for their loves and fears live in us over and over again. It is rather the soul than the hand, the man than the technique, which appeals to us, the more human the call the deeper is our response.
But the exodus to Canada went on, and the hearts of the people were moved to compassion by the arrival of ragged and foot-sore wanderers. They found a warm friend in Brown, who paid the hotel bill of one for a week, gave fifty dollars to maintain a negro family, and besides numerous acts of personal kindness, filled the columns of the Globe with appeals on behalf of the fugitives.
Appeals to parents or guardians often ensue. If, by mediation of friends, a reconciliation takes place, it hardly ever holds: for why? Separate beds are often the consequence; perhaps elopements: if not, an unconquerable indifference, possibly aversion.
Thy distant and involuntary admiration of "the fair Guli" needs, however, no excuse. At this period, as was indeed most natural, our young teacher solaced himself with occasional appeals to what he calls "the Muses." There is reason to believe, however, that the Pagan sisterhood whom he ventured to invoke seldom graced his study with their personal attendance.
The whole of the Eastern empire was placed under two prefects, the pretorian prefect of the East and the pretorian prefect of Illyricum, who, living at Constantinople, like modern secretaries of state, made edicts for the government of the provinces and heard the appeals.
