The worship of these gods as the chief Southern deities of the dead, and the preeminence of the necropolis of Abydos in the South, no doubt date back before the time of the Ist Dynasty, so that it would not surprise us were burials of kings of the predynastic Hierakonpolite kingdom discovered at Abydos. Prof.
I am very far, indeed, from saying or thinking that this peculiar preëminence is worth the pains it must cost to acquire it.
Southey pronounced their preeminence when he said to me that they ranked amongst the few domestic events which, by the depth and the expansion of horror attending them, had risen to the dignity of a national interest. How he came by it, or whither he was going, he steadfastly refused to say.
"I am compelled to think of him as one who won the right of preeminence in the world's history," continues Mr. Jones, as if he had not said enough. That is a definite claim, and personally, we would be glad to see it made good. But truth compels us to state that the claim is unjust.
From the humble position of a Kerry lawyer, he had gradually risen to the proud preeminence which he occupied in the eyes of Europe, and he owed it solely to that moral force of which he was so sincere an advocate, and which he knew so well how to wield.
The centre of literary activity in Poland is Warsaw, which, in spite of the severe restrictions on the press, has always maintained its preeminence. Carmen Sylva. The kingdom of Roumania, composed of the principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia, united in 1859, has few literary monuments.
+The preëminence of Jesus.+ Lest anyone should think that this position involves in the slightest degree the diminution of the religious value and the moral preëminence of Jesus, let me say that it does the very opposite. Nothing can be higher than the highest, and the life of Jesus was the undimmed revelation of the highest.
Religion was loth to give up the simpler and more child-like ideas of the universe and to displace the earth from its proud preëminence as the one foot-stool of deity. Man feels lonelier in the tremendous spaces and stellar systems which astronomy has revealed to his eye and mind.
A faithful friend is a strong defence. Seek not of the Lord preeminence: humble thy soul greatly. Fear the Lord, and reverence his priests. Stretch thine hand unto the poor, and mourn with them that mourn. Strive not with a mighty man: kindle not the coals of a sinner. Lend not unto him that is mightier than thyself: be not surety above thy power.
Except the lively controversy on inoculation, and floating papers in journals, we have not much of value for that long period, in the shape of medical records. But while the trouble with the last century is to find authors to mention, the trouble of this would be to name all that we find. Of these, a very few claim unquestioned preeminence.
