Le culte des hommes morta faisoit presque tout le fond de l'idolatrie; presque tous les hommes sacrificient aux manes, c'est-a-dire aux ames des morts. De si anciennes erreurs nous font voir a la verite combien etoit ancienne la croyance de l'immortalite de l'ame, et nous montrent qu'elle doit etre rangee parmi les premieres traditions du genre humain.
"Really? here to the laguna morta?" and as his gondola slid into the channel, she added: "I knew you were in Venice; you could not go without another time." "What would that bring?" he questioned her with his eyes. "How should I know?" she answered, evasively. "Come with me out to the San Giorgio in Alga. It is the loneliest place in Venice!" Lawrence sat at her feet.
Disraeli does not say that all those in his list were saviors, for the second name he records is that of Alexander the Great, the list ending with Shelley. Giorgione died of a broken heart. The girl he loved eloped with his friend, Morta del Feltri, to whom he had proudly introduced her a short time before. It is an old story it has been played again and again to its Da Rimini finish.
Morta del Feltri, the perfidious friend, grew tired of his mistress: their love was so warm it shortly burned itself to ashes ashes of roses. Morta deserted the girl, fled from Venice, joined the army, and a javelin plunged through his liver at the battle of Zara ended his career.
They had passed the domain of the Laguna Morta, weird and half-forbidding, with tangles of sea-plants and upspringing wild fowl calling to each other with hoarse cries across the marshes with armies of water beetles zigzagging in the shallows, and crabs and lizards crawling upon the scattered sand heaps among the coarse sea-grasses, while small fish brought unexpected dimples to the deeper pools that lay between.
"Yes, a live friend is better than a dead one. Mortua est hurdy-gurda!" Savoyard shakes his head vehemently. "No no, Eccellenza, non e morta!" and strikes up a lively air on the slandered instrument. The Savoyard's face brightens-he looks happy; the mice run from the grave into his bosom. Pisistratus, affected, and putting the question in Latin. "Have you a father?"
"I tried to keep the other engagement and could not!" "I shall make you forget it, as if it were some silly boyish dream." She began to walk over the moonlit grass. "I was waiting for that sacrifice. For if you desire me, you must leave the other engagements, always." "I know it." "I lie in the laguna morta, and the dead are under me, and the living are caught in my sea-weed." She laughed.
La mia pittura morta Difendi orma', Giovanni, e 'l mio onore, Non sendo in loco bon, nè io pittore. According to the first plan, Michael Angelo bargained with the Pope for twelve Apostles in the lunettes, and another part to be filled with ornament in the usual manner "dodici Apostoli nelle lunette, e 'l resto un certo partimento ripieno d' adornamenti come si usa."
The Colonel told me that his own son was killed and is buried beyond the Isonzo, near Cervignano. It had been suggested to him that he should have the body brought home, but he preferred to leave it where it fell. "C'è un' idea che è morta lì," he said, "It is an idea which has died there.
