dnight, unmitigated by one ray of light!"] [Footnote 1614: On the doctors, who attended him in his first attack, mistaking the haemorrhage from the stomach for haemorrhage from the lungs, he wrote: "It would have been but poor consolation to have had as an epitaph:-- "Here lies George Wilson, Overtaken by Nemesis; He died not of Haemoptysis, But of Haematemesis."] [Footnote 1615: 'Memoir,' p. 427.] [Footnote 171: Jeremy Taylor's 'Holy Living.'] [Footnote 172: 'Michelet's 'Life of Luther,' pp. 411-12.] [Footnote 173: Sir John Kaye's 'Lives of Indian Officers.'] [Footnote 174: 'Deontology,' pp. 130-1, 144.] [Footnote 175: 'Letters and Essays,' p. 67.] [Footnote 176: 'Beauties of St. Francis de Sales.'] [Footnote 177: Ibid.] [Footnote 178: 'Life of Perthes,' ii. 449.] [Footnote 179: Moore's 'Life of Byron,' 8vo.

Writing to Lord Peterborough on his son's education, Locke said: "Your Lordship would have your son's tutor a thorough scholar, and I think it not much matter whether he be any scholar or no: if he but understand Latin well, and have a general scheme of the sciences, I think that enough. But I would have him WELL-BRED and WELL-TEMPERED."] [Footnote 182: Mrs. Hutchinson's 'Memoir of the Life of Lieut.-Colonel Hutchinson,' p. 32.] [Footnote 183: 'Letters and Essays,' p. 59.] [Footnote 184: 'Lettres d'un Voyageur.'] [Footnote 185: Sir Henry Taylor's 'Statesman,' p. 59.] [Footnote 186: Introduction to the 'Principal Speeches and Addresses of His Royal Highness the Prince Consort,' 1862.] [Footnote 187: "When in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes, I all alone beween my outcast state, And troubled deaf heaven with my bootless cries, And look upon myself and curse my fate; WISHING ME LIKE TO ONE MORE RICH IN HOPE, Featured like him, like him with friends possessed, Desiring this man's art, and that man's scope, With what I most enjoy, contented least; Yet in these thoughts, MYSELF ALMOST DESPISING, Haply I think on thee," &c.--SONNET XXIX. "So I, MADE LAME by sorrow's dearest spite," &c.--SONNET XXXVI] [Footnote 188: "And strength, by LIMPING sway disabled," &c.--SONNET LXVI.
