There are novels of low life, novels of high life, military novels, naval novels, novels philosophical, novels religious, novels historical, novels descriptive of India, the Colonies, Ancient Rome, and the Egyptian Pyramids. From what bird, wild eagle, or barn-door fowl, can I "'Pluck one unwearied plume from Fancy's wing?"
"Reader, attend whether thy soul Soars fancy's flights beyond the pole, Or darkling grubs this earthly hole In low pursuit; Know prudent, cautious self-control, Is Wisdom's root." One of the vices before which Burns fell and it may be said to be a master-vice, because it is productive of so many other vices was drinking.
From this rising ground AEneas saw the shadowy forms of future heroes of Rome of Rom'u-lus, who was to found the city of Brutus, Ca-mil'lus, Fa'bi-us, and of the mighty Caesars. "Lo! Caesar there and all his seed, Iulus' progeny decreed To pass 'neath heaven's high dome. This, this is he, so oft the theme Of your prophetic fancy's dream, Augustus Caesar, Jove's own strain."
"Oh, were their tale of sorrow known, 'Twere something to the breaking heart, The pangs of doubt would then be gone, And fancy's endless dreams depart." But let us quit the now mournful settlement of the Cold Springs, and see how it really fared with the young wanderers.
Fancy's hands, disencumbered of the tea-tray, began to twitch violently. "Very well, master," was all she said, however; and with that she left the room to fetch her hat and small cloak.

"Encamped beside life's rushing stream, In Fancy's misty light, Gigantic shapes and shadows gleam Portentous through the night." The Beleaguered City, LONGFELLOW.
Hardly a landholder, hardly a farmer, hardly a parish within ten miles of Milby, whose affairs were not under the legal guardianship of Pittman and Dempster; and I think the clients were proud of their lawyers' unscrupulousness, as the patrons of the fancy's are proud of their champion's 'condition'. It was not, to be sure, the thing for ordinary life, but it was the thing to be bet on in a lawyer.
Soon as the solemn rite was performed, the governor ordered a `feu de joie'. Instantly at the welcome word, "handle arms", the eager warriors struck their fire-locks, loud ringing through all their ranks; and presenting their pieces, rent the air with fierce platoons; while the deep-throated cannon like surly bull-dogs, rolled their louder thunders along the field; then madly bounding back on their rattling wheels, they told to fancy's ear, "Freedom's sons are we, and d n the villains that would make us slaves!"
These rave as frantic persons, they see nothing, and yet imagine they see. Thence Electra thus returns to him: O wretched man, securely sleep in bed; Nothing thou seest, thy fancy's vainly led. After the same manner Theoclymenus in Homer.
He presently entered the inn and opened the door of Fancy's room. "Dick, do you know, it has struck me that it is rather awkward, my being here alone with you like this. I don't think you had better come in with me." "That's rather unpleasant, dear." "Yes, it is, and I wanted you to have some tea as well as myself too, because you must be tired."
