MOORE appears as springtime rose with kindling visions and Love's rainbow over sorrow. BYRON portrays ocean might and radiant meteor, home on mountain height, lightning-like fancy. MILTON shows pinion strength and piercing glance toward celestial light. NEWTON unveils towering genius to explore stars and reveal cosmic wonders.
A Knickerbocker notice reviews Rev. Orville Dewey's Sabbath sermon on President Lincoln's death, framing life as a school for the soul and death as a decisive teacher. It recalls lines about mortality shaping duty, and cites a sonnet about mortal pride while reflecting on ancestors and enduring human ties.
A speaker rails at urban vice and financial ambition, noting a musty museum of folly. He warns that polished society harbors a lingering moral serpent in taverns grog shops and pleasure halls. He recalls the mortal hour of judgment and cites famed figures now gone.
The Boston Watchman reprints Rev Turnbull’s Odeon talk on temperance. A serpent lures a child to doom, but society debates punishment and the monster debt. The piece folds in Cumberland history, colonial flags, and ironic colonial wit as it trails into commentary on public morals and finance.
A reflective piece compares the aged and the young dying, likening them to ripe grain gathered for the hus band's store. It muses on a possible better world where age and virtue differ, suggesting Providence may call the young at their bloom to join a perfect, deathless whole.
A collection of humorous asides and quotes on roads, luck, and social foibles. An Englishman and an Irishman trade wry lines about roads to love, matrimony, prison, and the undertaker, while broader jests on lightning, cider, and court slights appear. The item blends quips about manners, judges, and silly boasts with a nod to Ephraim’s piston rod remark and banks like bubbles of fame.
