Strana 1 - THINK me not unkind and rude That I walk alone in grove and glen ; I go to the god of the wood To fetch his word to men. Tax not my sloth that I Fold my arms beside the brook; Each cloud that floated in the sky Writes a letter in my book. Chide me not, laborious band, For the idle flowers I brought ; Every aster in my hand Goes home loaded with a thought. There was never mystery But 't is figured in the flowers ; Was never secret history But birds tell it in the bowers. One harvest from thy field...
Strana 82 - The hand that rounded Peter's dome, And groined the aisles of Christian Rome, Wrought in a sad sincerity : Himself from God he could not free; He builded better than he knew: The conscious stone to beauty grew.
Strana 1 - THE APOLOGY THINK me not unkind and rude That I walk alone in grove and glen; I go to the god of the wood I fetch his word to men. Tax not my sloth that I Fold my arms beside the brook; Each cloud that floated in the sky Writes a letter in my book. Chide me not, laborious band, For the idle flowers I brought; Every aster in my hand Goes home loaded with a thought. There was never mystery...
Strana 71 - Draw a Square Upon a Given Line. Let AB (Fig. 22) be the given line. By Problem 6, draw A i, perpendicular to AB and equal to it. With I and B as centers, and a radius equal to AB, describe arcs intersecting at 2. Draw 1-2 and 2 B, completing the square. A square has its opposite sides equal and parallel, and contains four right angles. Problem 10 — To Draw a Rectangle, the Sides being Given. Let AB and CD (Fig. 23) be the given sides. By Problem 6, draw i A perpendicular to AB, and equal to CD.
Strana 65 - You will need, in order to do accurate work, a drawing-board, not smaller than io"x 12$"; a ruler; a T-square; two triangles — one of forty-five and one of thirty and sixty degrees ; a pair of compasses ; two lead pencils — a hard one for light lines, and a somewhat softer one for lining-in or finishing; and some thumb tacks. The left edge of the drawing-board should be perfectly straight and true, so that the head of the T-square will fit accurately against it. In placing paper upon the board,...
Strana 19 - One is tempted to say that the most human plants, after all, are the weeds. How they cling to man and follow him around the world, and spring up wherever he sets his foot! How they crowd around his barns and dwellings, and throng his garden and jostle and override each other in their strife to be near him! Some of them are so domestic and familiar, and so harmless withal, that one comes to regard them with positive affection. Motherwort, catnip, plantain, tansy, wild mustard, — what a homely human...
Strana 68 - Figure 1 1 , for lines at 45°, at 60°, and at 30°. For drawing parallels to a given line of any inclination, place the triangles as indicated in Figure 12. The edge CD of triangle 2 must coincide with the given line AB. Triangle i is held firmly in place, as triangle 2 slides along its edge, in drawing parallels to AB. Problem 5 — To Bisect a Line, or to Draw a Line Perpendicular to it, at its Center. Let AB (Fig. 13) be the given line. With A and B as centers, and a radius greater than half...
Strana 67 - The line 1 -"2 is parallel to the line AB. Parallel lines are lines having the same direction ; if extended, they could never meet. The draughtsman uses the T-square and triangles in drawing parallel lines. His method is as follows : To draw parallel horizontal lines, place the head of the T-square against the left edge of the board, and draw against the blade, sliding the T-square along the edge of the board and repeating the drawing, for any number of parallel horizontal lines. See Figure 9. ART...
Strana 6 - And what a glorious object is a TREE ! How magnificent a forest of them, on the boundless plain, or the mighty hill-side ! And the single tree — there is scarcely its match for beauty among unintelligent objects on the face of the earth. It is surpassed perhaps only by him who walks among them in living and thinking grace and beauty. " In form," though not in " moving," like him, the tree, how "express and admirable!
