In such a site in the temperate zone, the cyperaceous and gramineous plants would have formed vast meadows; here the soil abounded in aquatic plants, with sagittate leaves, and especially in basil plants, among which we noticed the fine flowers of the costus, the thalia, and the heliconia.

Upon the upper shelf are two busts in relief, and the front of a sarcophagus, with elaborate representations of the Muses. Here is Terpsichore with the lyre of dancing, Thalia with the mask of comedy. And now the way lies once more forward, into the

The Aesthetical Essays in this volume appeared for the most part since 1792, in the "Thalia" and the "Hours" periodicals. The first "On the Ground of our Pleasure in Tragic Subjects" , applies Kantian principles of the sublime to tragedy, and shows Schiller's lofty estimate of this class of poetry.

Did the garden cast the spell by which she saw herself on the seat? or was it Chiltern's voice? She would indeed love and cherish it. And was it true that she belonged there, securely infolded within those peaceful walls? How marvellously well was Thalia playing her comedy! Which was the real, and which the false?

His face grew vaguely troubled, as if he did not quite understand.... Then, abruptly, the veil lifted: his eyes dilated with pain; he passed his hand over his forehead once or twice and sighed. Then he looked down at the poor, dying face that once he had loved. "Why, 'Thalia!" he said, in a surprised and anguished voice; suddenly he put his arm under the restless head.

"You would have some difficulty in doing that," said the first actor, "she doesn't wear any." "So much the better." "You know nothing about it," said the actress. These remarks put us all in high spirits, and the ministers of Thalia ended by promising that they would dispense with a prompter. I was pleased with the way the piece was read, and they said they would be letter-perfect in three days.

Sir James sent, by the Thalia, the following letters to Sir Horatio: Orion, Port of Augusta, 16th September 1798. I fear you will be disappointed at finding that we are no further on our voyage than this place.

Here the bard may offer up to them a solemn invocation, and compose his lay, as it were, under their very eyes. The statues of CLIO, THALIA, TERPSICHORE, ERATO, POLYHYMNIA, and CALLIOPE, together with the APOLLO MUSAGETES, were discovered in 1774, at Tivoli, among the ruins of the villa of Cassius.

They believe in general love, not particular, I suppose.... 'Thalia, do you think it's worth while to wait over a train just to see the settlement?" "Of course it is! He said they were happy; I would like to see what kind of life makes people happy." He looked at the lighted end of his cigar and smiled, but he said nothing.

The dramatic fragment, 'The Misanthrope Reconciled', which Schiller fished up out of his drawer in 1790 and used, faute de mieux, to fill space in the eleventh number of the Thalia, was begun, as we have seen, in Dresden.
