To imitate is not to plagiarize; and Shelley cannot reasonably be called a plagiarist because he introduced into Adonais passages which are paraphrased or even translated from Bion and Moschus. It does seem singular however that neither in the Adonais volume nor in any of his numerous written remarks upon the poem does Shelley ever once refer to this state of the facts.
Four or five policemen on wheels passed by the car, each with a forbidding glance through the windows. "They are the boys we left behind us," paraphrased Robin soberly. "The park policemen. They've just caught us up, and, believe me, they look serious, too. I dare say we are in for it." In a very few minutes the procession arrived at a low, formidable looking building on a narrow side street.
It was the hour of nones, and the strains of the hymn of St. Ambrose, "Rerum Deus tenax vigor," were pealing from the Benedictines in the choir: which has been thus paraphrased: "O strength and stay, upholding all creation: Who ever dost Thyself unmoved abide, Yet, day by day, the light, in due gradation, From hour to hour, through all its changes guide.
In the first stanza he mentions that he had slain eleven men, but using a poet's license he states the fact in a roundabout way, saying that he slew six men, and then five more, making eleven in all: Seis muertes e hecho y cinco son once. which may be paraphrased thus: Six men had I sent to hades or heaven, Then added five more to make them eleven. The stanza ended, Marcos resumed his comments.
He began to read at the lines: "When Work and Will awake too late, to gaze After their life sailed by, and hold their breath." Io opened her eyes again. "Why did you select that thing?" "Why did you mark it?" "Did I mark it?" "Certainly, I'm not responsible for the sage-blossom between the pages." "Ah, the sage! That's for wisdom," she paraphrased lightly.
A rule in the most scientific of card games, whist, is "when in doubt lead trumps." It might be paraphrased for mining thus: "When in doubt about machinery use that which has been proved." Let some one else do the experimenting. The success of a quartz mine depends as much on favourable working conditions as on its richness in gold.
There were some fawning and complacent people who pretended to consider him a great man, the reservoir of learning, the encyclopedic giant of the age. Perhaps he was a well, but one at whose bottom one often could not find a drop of water. In his volume Paroles de Dieu, he paraphrased the Holy Scriptures, endeavoring to complicate their ordinarily obvious sense.
To add to his vexation, as soon as he arrived at Versailles the Princesse de Montauban, without knowing a word of what had passed, set herself to exclaim, with her usual flattery, that she was charmed with the grace and the appropriate eloquence with which he had spoken at the Parliament, and paraphrased this theme with all the praises of which it was susceptible.
A smiling English youth was embarrassed when asked how he brought down the great Immelmann, most famous of German aviators. Nelson's "Death or Westminster Abbey" has become paraphrased to "Death or the communiqué." At twenty-one, while a general of division is unknown except in the army an aviator's name may be the boast of a nation.
What the Lord says to Peter may be paraphrased thus: Peter, there was a time when you were merely Simon, Jonas's son. At that time you had thoughts and formed opinions about holy matters such as your flesh and blood, your natural reason, suggested to you. All that is changed now that you are a Peter, a firm believer in the revelation which the Father makes to men about Me.
