It requires the comprehensive vision of the poet to catch the light of existing scenes as they shift along the globe, and harmonize them with the instant; whether he view "The Indian Drifting, knife in hand, His frail boat moored to A floating isle thick matted With large-leaved, low-creeping melon-plants, And the dark cucumber. He reaps and stows them, Drifting, drifting.
No one besides himself and those immediately concerned, ever knew anything about the matter. He never asserted any right to these pieces, he never sought to collect them, though some of them exhibited his happiest vein of humor. Unclaimed, unidentified, they are swept into that wallet of oblivion in which time stows the best as well as the worst of newspaper production.
Fifth Annual Report of the Registrar-General of England. Letter from William Farr, Esq. Several new series of cases are given in the Letter of Mr. Mr. Stows suggests precautions similar to those I have laid down, and these precautions are strongly enforced by Mr. Farr, who is, therefore, obnoxious to the same criticisms as myself. Hall and Dexter, in Am. Journal of Med. Sc. for January, 1844.
The rebuffed male resumes his post as a watcher in the sun; and the housewife stows her provisions. But she does not always do so without hindrance. Let me recount one of the misadventures of this work of storage. There is in the neighbourhood of the burrows a plant which catches insects with glue. The sea has disappeared; a few plants of its shores have remained behind.
He is dripping with sweat, caked with mud from head to foot, his shirt torn to rags, his skin scratched all over, and very likely some nasty bruises from tumbles. He has hardly energy enough left to wash himself. Supper does not revive him, though he stows away an appallingly large one. And then he stretches himself in his bunk and is happy.

He and his mate, with perhaps a few friends, hop about from leaf to leaf looking for quarry, large and small. The manner in which he stows away a caterpillar an inch long is a sight for the gods!
"Do people ever offer to make you presents? I mean presents of value, such as " "Silk handkerchiefs, shawls, and trinkets; very frequently, brother." "And what do you do, Ursula?" "I takes what people offers me, brother, and stows it away as soon as I can." "Well, but don't people expect something for their presents?
I undertake to find some little corner for you there. You will earn less, but you will be paid much more." I feel that he is quite right, that worthy fellow. But the thing is stronger than I. I cannot make up my mind to leave. And yet it is by no means gay, the life I lead here in these great, cold rooms, where no one ever comes, where each man stows himself away in a corner without speaking.
It is all very well for Salemina, who condenses her information and stows it away neatly; but we who have small storage room and inferior methods of packing must be as economical as possible in amassing facts.
