Swift is the eagle among the birds of the air, who seizeth presently with his feet his speckled prey , seeking it from afar off; but in low places dwell the chattering daws. To thee at least, by the will of throned Kleio, for sake of thy zeal in the games, from Nemea and from Epidauros and from Megara hath a great light shined.
He declared that he would "cut off" in a moment any of his tenants who refused to join the cause, and expressed his conviction that as sure as the sun shined his "master would prevail."
Nourished in such a home-garden, and shined on by such mother-light, we cannot wonder that the child grew toward the Sun, and that the roots of religious character struck deep and spread wide. When but a little child he showed an unusual concern of conscience. At fifteen the town in which he lived was greatly aroused and revived.
It was not till Rousseau was thirty-nine years of age that he attracted public attention by his writings, although earlier known in literary circles, especially in that infidel Parisian coterie, where Diderot, Grimm, D'Holbach, D'Alembert, David Hume, the Marquis de Mirabeau, Helvetius, and other wits shined, in which circle no genius was acknowledged and no profundity of thought was deemed possible unless allied with those pagan ideas which Saint Augustine had exploded and Pascal had ridiculed.
"I couldn't say." "I seed de biggest, blackest nigger dat you ever laid eyes on. He shined like de paint on 'im was fresh. He hed done grabbed fo' er my forwardes' pullets. I crope up nigh de do', an' hollered an' axed 'im how he wuz a gittin' on, an' den he broke, an' ez he broke I jammed de gun in de small er his back and banged aloose.
"Here are some footprints!" cried Mr. Rover, after a short distance had been covered. "Dem was made by our boys!" cried Aleck, after a minute examination.

"Like as not they got turned around among the trees an' in the dark."
Embarrassed in his circumstances; filled with disgust, mortification, and shame; excluded from the proudest circles, Byron now resolved to leave England forever, and bury himself in such foreign lands as were most congenial to his tastes and habits. But for his immorality he might still have shined at an exalted height; for he had not yet written anything which shocked the practical English mind.
"Well, papa, we didn't mean to go 'thout our things on, but two of the beautifullest icebergs hunged down an' we played they was candy an' all the pretty drops said stop, stop, stop, an' " "Yes, an' the 'no was full of 'tars 'at shined right up at us an' laughed an' played hide an' seek wiv each other." "An' Jamie wanted to make a snow man," suddenly remembered Fred.
He has never left humanity without a witness to the power and goodness of God. While men have been seeking an unknown God, he has been that very God whom they were seeking, and it is he who has incited them to feel after him and find him. His light has shined in the darkness, and the darkness has comprehended it not, though in him we live and move and have our being.
Wear your hat so that the brim is parallel to the ground. Have all buttons fastened. Never have sleeves rolled up. Never wear sleeve holders. Never leave shirt or coat unbuttoned at the throat. Have leggins and trousers properly laced. Keep shoes shined. Always be clean shaved. Keep head up and shoulders square. Camp life has a tendency to make one careless as to personal cleanliness.
