In every loving woman there is a priestess of the past a pious guardian of some affection, of which the object has disappeared. January 6, 1873. I have been reading the seven tragedies of Aeschylus, in the translation of Leconte de Lisle. The "Prometheus" and the "Eumenides" are greatest where all is great; they have the sublimity of the old prophets.
Indeed, the far greater simplicity in the configuration of the basin of Lake Tahoe than that of the Lake of Geneva must render the phenomena much less complicated in the former than in the latter. Professor LeConte then gives his computations as to the probable duration of the oscillations on Lake Tahoe, should they occur there.
It was hideous that we could not wait for Koto in darkness, but the light was essential to Captain Crane's preparations, so there was nothing to be done. I felt that Koto's chances of getting back to us were one in a thousand. Yet suddenly, as I still clung to the foot of the gangway, LeConte thrust his head from the control room door and yelled at me to hang on tight.
When it drops off a note but you will not know it except the Douglas squirrel tells you with his high, fluty chirrup from the pines' aerial gloom sign that some star watcher has caught the first far glint of the nearing sun. Whitney cries it from his vantage tower; it flashes from Oppapago to the front of Williamson; LeConte speeds it to the westering peaks.
I snapped, and as she clutched the slender rail of the gangway and plunged upwards, "LeConte, you next. Koto " But Koto laid a firm hand on my arm. "No, I do not go." We stopped where we were. The noises of pursuit were still around us, and I could have slugged him for making a delay. "You fool, get aboard!" I roared. But it did no good. "No." "Get the motors started!" I called to Captain Crane.
It took a thousand years to people the shores of the European lakes as we find them to-day, and in due time Tahoe will assuredly come to its own in this regard. Indeed as John LeConte well wrote a number of years ago: The shores of Lake Tahoe afford the most beautiful sites for summer residences.
He had become, in the sudden exinction of the illustrious old men of Denmark, the first living writer of the North. He was to Norway what Valera was to Spain, Carducci to Italy, Swinburne or Rossetti to England, and Leconte de Lisle to France. These were mainly lyrical poets, but it must not be forgotten that Ibsen, down at least till 1871, was prominently illustrious as a writer in metrical form.
"Fight to take the cruiser," I ordered. "Captain Crane, Koto, LeConte, get aboard as soon as you can cut your way through. I'll take care of our ship and the kotomite at that time and join you, if possible. Come on!" Thus was it decided. Thus did we enter our fight with an outlook as utterly different from our original one as hope is different from despair.
In the full tide of Romanticism, Protestant Germany sought inspiration in Italy and Spain, as Catholic France sought it in Germany and England. A new sense of race-values was evident in poetry. It may be seen in Southey, Moore, and Byron, in Hugo's Les Orientales and in Leconte de Lisle's Poemes Barbares.
