The introduction to each Vision is evidently written with elaborate care, and exquisitely polished "ne quid possit per leve morari," and scene follows scene, painted in words which present them most vividly before one's eyes, whilst the force and liveliness of his diction sustain unflagging interest throughout.
Otherwise, a man is the slave of what other people are pleased to think, and how little it requires to disconcert or soothe the mind that is greedy of praise: Sic leve, sic parvum est, animum quod laudis avarum Subruit ac reficit. Therefore it will very much conduce to our happiness if we duly compare the value of what a man is in and for himself with what he is in the eyes of others.
The guide rouses the men in the morning; the moment the call is heard, "Lève, lève!" the passengers spring upon their feet, tie up their beds, and if they are not smart about it, the tents go down about their ears, and they must finish the operation in the open air. Several of our men having already deserted, we encamped upon islands, when they could be found, or kept watch on the mainland.
"Ille ego sum Maurus, franco qui captus ab hoste Exemplum instabilis non leve sortis eo;" and Jean Marot found inspiration in a Venetian song "Ogni fumo viene al basso" which he rendered in the following lines, alluding to the legend of the Moro's fresco in the Castello of Milan:
I made verses one day, there not very nice, but there true I saw it: The little lams are beautiful, There cotes are soft and nice, The little calves have ringworm, And the 2-year olds have lice! Now I'm going' to make more; it seems to bad to leve it like that. It must be very nasty, But to worrie, what's the use; Better be cam and cheerfull, And appli tobaka jooce.
Piers Plowman. I don't know about travellers' "hedden leve" to lie, but that they "taken leve" no one can doubt who has ever followed their wandering footsteps. They say the most charming and audacious things, in blessed indifference to the fact that somebody may possibly believe them.
"Leve, leve, leve!" he cried, "leve, leve, mes enfants!" Some of Louis's infants replied to the summons in a way that would have done credit to a harlequin.
A farm-hand was first to note their call, and got such a case of wanderlust when he observed the geese that he kept on going without return to the house. He wrote, however, this significant news: "Jack: Wild guse on your pleace. Leve corn on wood-lot. He come back mabe. Steve." Jack Miner did just that; and the next year he left the corn a little nearer the house and so on.
"The manesalutantes." There can be no doubt that the levees of modern princes and ministers have been inherited from this ancient usage of Rome; one which belonged to Rome republican, as well as Rome imperial. The fiction in our modern practice is that we wait upon the levé, or rising of the prince.
In the Chist is gold Dubloons, a vast lot, also a silver Cross wich he sed leve for the Grave for he sed Bill walks and thats unlucky. That was all. A fairly clear direction for any friend who had attended the obsequies of Bill and knew where to look for the stone marked B. H. and a cross-bones, but to perfect strangers it was vague. A blank look crept into the intent faces about the table.
