Page 14 - Horrid with frost and turbulent with storm, Blows autumn, and his golden fruits, away : Then melts into the spring : soft spring, with breath Favonian, from warm chambers of the south, Recalls the first.
Page 335 - There rolls the deep where grew the tree. O earth, what changes hast thou seen! There where the long street roars hath been The stillness of the central sea.
Page 300 - ... period that I believe the active treatment I advocate ought to be employed. It is important not to commence this until the surface-heat is normal ; for undoubtedly, when any tendency to inflammation exists in the tendon-sheath, pressure aggravates it, and I have known it to lead to untoward results. It is of course impossible, within the limits of this paper, to describe the special adaptation of this method to each joint ; but I will take as an illustration the ankle. If a wire be passed round...

Page 144 - Britain, whether indigenous or immigrants, is a question involved in the obscurity usual among barbarians. Their temperament of body is various, whence deductions are formed of their different origin. Thus, the ruddy hair and large limbs of the Caledonians point out a German derivation. The swarthy complexion and curled hair of the Silures, together with their situation opposite to Spain, render it probable that a colony of the ancient Iberi possessed themselves of that territory.
Page xxii - Members present ; one black ball in three to exclude.

Secretary, or to any member of the Central Committee. XI. — That the Club undertake the formation and publication of correct lists of the various natural productions of the County of Hereford, with such observations as their respective authors may...
Page 354 - The disturbed area is thus 43 miles long, 36 miles wide, and contains about1200 square miles. In the central part of the disturbed area, the shock consisted of two distinct parts, separated by a brief interval of rest and quiet. At Slawston, for example, the first and stronger part lasted 4 seconds, the interval 2 seconds, and the second part about 2 seconds ; the sound was also in two parts, the first and louder being compared to thunder, the second to a rushing wind. Nearer the boundary, as, for...
