Liam Ó Muirthile, 1950 – 18 May 2018

May 21, 2018

Though we may never meet again,
do not think that you have been forgotten.
Remember me on your walks from time to time
on Inisbofin or wherever you find yourself.

— from “Song” Liam Ó Muirthile (1950 – 18 May 2018), translated from the Irish by Greg Delanty in Selected Delanty.

One White Crow (Attributed to Henry James)

L A Nemrow

Essays in Criticism, Volume 69, Issue 3, July 2019, Pages 309–324

Abstract

If you wish to upset the law that all crows are black, you musn’t seek to show that no crows are; it is enough if you prove one single crow to be white. My own white crow is Mrs Piper. In the trances of this medium, I cannot resist the conviction that knowledge appears which she has never gained by the ordinary waking use of her eyes and ears and wits.

(William James, Science, NS III, p. 884)

PHILIP LORING ALLEN PUBLISHED ‘LITERARY CHANGELINGS’ in Frank Leslie’s Popular Monthly (vol. lvi, no. 3, July 1903), which opens: ‘Books are seldom what they seem, but people do not know this. They never wonder about anything except when...

Robert Burns, Lincluden Abbey
January 25, 2019

Robert Burns, Lincluden Abbey from Views of the Haunts and Homes of the British Poets, Oct. 19 1850.

“The mood of mind which comes over you here is that of unwritten poetry.

When one thinks of Burns wandering amid this congenial nature, where the young now wander and sing his songs, one is apt to forget that he bore with him a sad heart and a sinking frame.”

— William Howitt

John Dryden, Burleigh House
January 8, 2019

Those who have homes, when home they do repair,

    To a last lodging call their wandering friends:

Their short uneasy sleeps are broke with care,

    To look how near their own destruction tends.

Those who have none, sit round where once it was,

    And with full eyes each wonted room require;

Haunting the yet warm ashes of the place,

    As murder’d men walk where they did expire.

— John Dryden, from “Annus Mirabilis”

Stella’s Cottage

No bloom of youth can ever blind

The cracks and wrinkles of your mind:

All men of sense will pass your door,

And crowd to Stella’s at four-score.

— Jonathan Swift, from “Stella’s Birth-day”

trim off these edges, in order to facilitate good
registration, but they did have such an endless

pick up one of their books, we see the beautiful
feature...."
