Excerpt from Waifs of the Mind One of these was the English poet, Matthew Prior, a man with a penchant for figures and skill in questions of commerce. Because of these peculiarities, we find that in the year 17] I. The Lord Treasurer of England called upon him to assist in bringing about a much-desired treaty with France. Dear Matt, wrote Bolingbroke to the poet. Hide the nakedness of thy country, and give the best turn thy fertile brain will furnish thee with to the blunders of thy countrymen. Who are much better politicians than the French are poets. Another notable exception among commercially-minded poets is to be found in the author of this collection of verses. Entitled Waifs of the Mind. Nothing approaching a dalliance or a dawdling attitude of mind can be found in the life history of Mr. Newson, who, for over fifteen years. Has held the arduous and important office of Deputy Provincial Treasurer of the Province of Alberta. For a certainty, in this capacity, our poet can have no delicate susceptibilities concerning the accumulation of uncleanly cash; no obsessions that the sacred claw of literature must never. Never scrape for a living; no beliefs that a poet must wear his life away in isolation from his kind. There was once a clever man who warned his age to beware of dreamers, they were such practical persons. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Waifs of Three Years I took up the subject at the last moment, spending little more than a forenoon and an evening upon it. Longer care would probably have made the piece shorter, would certainly have made the execution more perfect still, the thoughts and feelings expressed were by no means the result of sudden conditions of mind, and I judge it best to print the whole without material alteration.

Excerpt from Verse-Waifs What time the limbs are stricken powerless, Condemned to lie inactive till the frame Recover health, it well beguiles the hours To let the mind disport itself, and take Free range mid flowers of verse, collecting sweets Of fancy that refreshment bring, and give Some exercise of brain at least. So I, Of late kept prisoner thus, enlargement sought For spirit bidding it take flight among The buds of Spring, and, like a butterfly, Find liberty and honey actively, Yet lightly, gathering these dulcet waifs Of poesy that strayed into my thought. A friendly hand hath hived them here in print For friendly eyes that take delight to mark The fantasies of Mary cowden-clarke.

Download and read online ebook The Life of Mind (Classic Reprint) write by E. Jordan. This book was released on 2017-07-18. The Life of Mind (Classic Reprint) available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Excerpt from The Life of Mind The second principle is, that mind always acts as a whole or as a unity, and is known only as such. This means that whenever the mind acts it is always the whole mindthat acts and never a mere part of it. Thus when I see a tree, my whole mind is centered upon the tree and I am not seeing the tree with only a part Of my mind. When I think Of an Object, that Object is the point around which my mind as a whole is organized. The'n mind can be defined as the active unity which manifests itself in and comprehends the organization of objects in our world. And by Objects we mean primarily those things which we touch and handle and eat and sell in our cultural and practical relations, and not Objects which are supposed by some mystery to be only in or out of the mind and therefore unreal.
