Henry More was no Puritan; and his letter to Glanvil, prefixed to the third edition of the "Sadducismus Triumphatus," was written in 1678, only fourteen years before the trials at Salem. Bekker's "Bezauberte Welt" was published in 1693; and in the Preface he speaks of the difficulty of overcoming "the prejudices in which not only ordinary men, but the learned also, are obstinate."
"It seems as if nothing had happened," he said, as they walked through the spring night. "People are asleep as usual, and there is an odor of summer in the dark." Von Stinnes silently directed their way. After a half-hour's walk he paused in front of an ancient-looking building. "We are in Schwabbing now," he said, "the rendezvous of the Welt Anschauers. I think this place is still open."
Perhaps it would be more correct to describe Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung as his main thesis, and his other treatises as merely corollary to it.
A sound of heavier firing in the streets interrupted. The two sat listening, the baron's face alive with an odd humor. "Es lebe die Welt Revolution," he whispered. "Do you hear it? Only a murmur. But it starts all over Germany again. Workingmen with guns. You will see them later. I among them. Stay in Europe, my friend, and see the ghost of Marat rising from a German bathtub." "Who are shooting?"
There was a great yellow stain on the little forehead, a welt rising and purpling through it. Even the honey-colored curls were stained with a great blotch of the vicious greeny yellow, one little eyelid swelling.
John answered scornfully: "What could you do? Do you ask me what you could do?" "What would you have done?" "I should have tramped every street in London and looked into the face of every woman I met until I had found her. I should have worn my shoes to the welt and my skin to the bone before I should have come crawling home like a snail with my shell broken over my head!
"Never had no meat to spare," acquiesced Shorty, "but I'm an Alderman now to what I was six weeks ago. Got a welt on my head at Chickamaugy, and then the camp fever at Chattanoogy, which run me down till I could've crawled through a greased flute." "Well, I'm Jim Elkins. Used to belong to Co. A," replied the Sergeant. "I recollect your stealing the caboose door down there at Murfreesboro.
Oh, sir, clear, pardon me this wan time; and if ever you cotch me doing the like agin, I'll give you lave to welt the sowl out of me." "Behave yourself, Barny Byrne." "I'm not touching you." "Yes, you are; didn't you make me blot my Copy?" "Ho, by the livin', I'll pay you goin' home for this." "Hand me the taws." "Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo what'll I do, at all at all!
"I think he was the best man with the Schlager that Jena ever saw. Even Korner likes not to stand against him in mask and fencing hat, all padded. Eh, Rudolph?" Herr Korner gave a good-natured growl of assent. "I have still a welt that he gave me a month since," he said. "He has left his mark on many an aristocrat." "And why did you always fight the aristocrats?" Stephen asked.
It is from this book that all except one of the following essays have been selected; the exception is "The Metaphysics of Love," which appears in the supplement of the third book of his principal work. The second edition of Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung appeared in 1844, and was received with growing appreciation.
