"Friend of a friend of mine. I think I'll take a chance and go down just for a little while. Save some grub for me. I won't be long. May make a date for to-night. Want to fill in?" "If there's room." "Sure, we'll make room, and I'll get you a girl. Some of us are going to the Hyperion. Nice little play there," and Dunk went on "dolling up," until he was at least partly satisfied with himself.
This grill is high enough for Hagenbeck, and it used to be a favorite game with us to play animal behind it for the street's amusement. At the hour when the crowd issued from the matinée at the Hyperion Theatre, our wittiest students paced on all fours up and down behind this grill and roared for raw beef.
I have desired my bookseller to send you a copy: and allow me to solicit your especial attention to the fragment of a poem entitled Hyperion, the composition of which was checked by the review in question. The great proportion of this piece is surely in the very highest style of poetry.
Reckoned until that time if anybody took the trouble of computing him at all as one of the ugliest of his race, he at once found himself invested with all the attributes of a canine Adonis, a very Admirable Crichton of dogs, perfect in intellect, face, figure, and the Hyperion luxuriance of his copious mane and tail.
Circe had warned him of another danger. After passing Scylla and Charybdis, the next land he would make was Trinakria, an island whereon were pastured the cattle of Hyperion, the Sun, tended by his daughters Lampetia and Phaethusa. These flocks must not be violated, whatever the wants of the voyagers might be. If this injunction were transgressed, destruction was sure to fall on the offenders.
"Naturally, 'Il etait un roi d'Yvetot!" cried Elodie, who had learned it at school. "Well of course. Even Beranger could not escape the malady of his generation. Do you remember" his swift glance embraced us all "Longfellow's criticism of European poets of that epoch, in his prose masterpiece, Hyperion?
Now the mythology of Cephalus is not only in unison with Pausanias, but the admission of that person would in no degree affect the harmony of the Attic types, or principles of Athenian worship. Cephalus was as celebrated for heroic virtues as for his beauty." The fragment numbered 91 is part of a figure of Hyperion rising out of the sea.
In the eyes of Shelley, Keats was principally and above all the poet of Hyperion; and Hyperion is, strictly speaking, a poem about the sun. In like manner, Endymion is a poem about the moon. Thus, from one point of view I cannot see any other Keats might be regarded as inspired by, or a son of, the Muse of Astronomy.
Under the form of a slight love tale, Hyperion is the diary of a poet's wandering in a storied and picturesque land, the hearty, home-like genius of whose life and literature is peculiarly akin to his own.
