FRED. I. BETTS, Clerk of the Southern DUtrict of Went- York. TO FREE MASONS. Brethren, Having devoted much study to the subject of Free Masonry, I am thoroughly convinced that the ancient land marks are removed, that our old customs are irreparably infringed, and the established usages of the Art are in ut ter confusion, bringing great discredit upon the Fraternity of Free and Accepted Masons, and concealed daggers of infidelity to the hearts of the brethren. It becomes my bounden duty, as a faithful brother, to make an effort, in the words of the Master's charge, " to correct the irregularities of the less informed brethren ; to fortify their minds with resolution against the insidious foe, and to guard them against every allurement to vicious practices." — See Preston's Illustrations of Masonry, p. 78. and the Free Mason's Monitor, p. 76. Fearless of her whose name is Mystery, and whose light is Egyptian darkness, it is done affectionately, brethren, with respect to you. It will present you strange and un expected facts, with approved Masonic authorities for them, in every case faithfully and amply quoted. Accept the work ; ponder it ; and may Immanuel, God with us, ever be with those, who with simplicity of heart receive truth in the love of it. THE AUTHOR. A LIST OP MASONIC AUTHORS QUOTED IN THIS WORK, TO ILLUSTRATE THE CHARACTER OF FREE MASONRY, With the page furnishing their masonic reputation. And let it be observed, that though they have not all the same value with the fraternity, not one of them is considered apocryphal; and but in a single instance do I recollect of one evil spoken of by another. Law rie and Dalcho boih give a gibe at Ahiman Re- zon : and why ? Because he maintains the mechanic origin of the fraternity, and the party of the Ancients ; while Lawrie brings Free Masonry from the sinks of antiquity, and Dalcho from hea ven, and both are stout supporters of the late party of Masons called Moderns. 1.

It has the authority of a Book of Constitutions in England, and forms the basis of the Free Mason's Monitor, and of Dalcho's Ahiman Kezon, and contri butes largely to every manual of Masonry published in America. The only sanction I can quote for this book, is the favour it has enjoyed, and still enjoys, with the Masonic public, best proved by the number of editions through which it passed in London — ten, in less than thirty years. 5.

It may interest the inquirer to know, that the entire body of the first 236 pages of this volume was written, except chapters 25 and 26, before the author suffered himself to peruse a single anti-maso nic author but Stearns' Inquiry. He sought to deal honourably with Free Masonry ; and to judge of it solely by the testimony of its friends : having done that, he felt free to examine the opinions of others. PREFACE. The first Free Mason Lodge in North America was es tablished in New-Jersey, A. D. 1730, by warrant from the mother of lodges, the Grand Lodge of England, under the hand of the Duke of Norfolk, Grand Master. (Preston.) The revolutionary struggle caused Free Masonry, for a season, to flourish ; then it languished ; and it was almost breathless at the time the first grand chapter was formed ; and the first edition of Webb's Free Mason's Monitor was published, A. D. 1797. Then it revived, and though checked by the works of the Abbe Barruel, and Professor Robison, it bore them down at length with the multiplicity of its as sertions, and went on increasing until A. D. 1816 ; the offi cial returns of lodges in the United States was estimated at 850 nearly. (Hardie.) The Free Mason's Library, Baltimore, 1826, furnishes a list of the principal lodges in the United States, " collated from, and compared with, copies of the original records of the several grand lodges." This list numbers, to Maine, .

  • Virgil, Aeneid 11 (Pallas & Camilla) 1–224, 498–521, 532–96, 648–89, 725–835 G
    Virgil, Aeneid 11 (Pallas & Camilla) 1–224, 498–521, 532–96, 648–89, 725–835 G Latin text, study aids with vocabulary, and commentary ILDENHARD INGO GILDENHARD AND JOHN HENDERSON A dead boy (Pallas) and the death of a girl (Camilla) loom over the opening and the closing part of the eleventh book of the Aeneid. Following the savage slaughter in Aeneid 10, the AND book opens in a mournful mood as the warring parti es revisit yesterday’s killing fi elds to att end to their dead. One casualty in parti cular commands att enti on: Aeneas’ protégé H Pallas, killed and despoiled by Turnus in the previous book. His death plunges his father ENDERSON Evander and his surrogate father Aeneas into heart-rending despair – and helps set up the foundati onal act of sacrifi cial brutality that caps the poem, when Aeneas seeks to avenge Pallas by slaying Turnus in wrathful fury. Turnus’ departure from the living is prefi gured by that of his ally Camilla, a maiden schooled in the marti al arts, who sets the mold for warrior princesses such as Xena and Wonder Woman. In the fi nal third of Aeneid 11, she wreaks havoc not just on the batt lefi eld but on gender stereotypes and the conventi ons of the epic genre, before she too succumbs to a premature death. In the porti ons of the book selected for discussion here, Virgil off ers some of his most emoti ve (and disturbing) meditati ons on the tragic nature of human existence – but also knows how to lighten the mood with a bit of drag.

  • Genre and Metapoetics in Vergil's Eclogues and Georgics
    Writing Poems on Trees: Genre and Metapoetics in Vergil’s Eclogues and Georgics by John H. Henkel A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Classics. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: James O’Hara, Advisor Sharon James, Reader Stephen Harrison, Reader James Rives, Reader William Race, Reader Oc 2009 John H. Henkel ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract JOHN H. HENKEL: Writing Poems on Trees: Genre and Metapoetics in Vergil’s Eclogues and Georgics. (Under the direction of James O’Hara.) This dissertation seeks to provide firmer grounding for the study of metapoetics in Roman poetry by investigating Vergil’s use of metapoetic narrative, symbolism, and metaphor in the Eclogues and Georgics. I argue that Vergil’s patterning of characters in the Eclogues after existing narratives, his discussion of farming in the Georgics, and the related references to trees and shade in the Eclogues, can be read as reflecting metaphorically on the theory and practice of poetry in Rome in the late first century BCE. By comparing Vergil’s discussions of trees and farming with passages of explicit literary criticism in Horace, Cicero, and others, I show that Vergil structures the Eclogues and Georgics in a way that allows references to agriculture and the natural world to be read as metaphors not only for life, as some Georgics scholars have shown, but also for poetry. My first chapter demonstrates my method by discussing a specific, pointed allusion to Aratus and his Hellenistic reception in Vergil’s passage on the farmer’s nighttime activities (Geo.

    Studia Anglica Posnaniensia 53 (2018): 223–255 doi: 10.2478/stap-2018-0010 STUDIA ANGLICA POSNANIENSIA 1968–2017: THE COMPLETE BIBLIOGRAPHY PAULINA ZAGÓRSKA Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań The first volume of Studia Anglica Posnaniensia was issued in 1968, containing the total of ten papers. 1968 was a difficult year, especially in Poznań, due to the political climate which resulted in numerous protests and manifestations. Viewed in this light, establishing an international journal was indeed a big step promoting openness and academic cooperation beyond political boundaries, in spite of the harsh political reality in Poland. This openness has characterized Studia Anglica Posnaniensia ever since its beginnings. Today the journal boasts as many as fifty-three volumes with over 900 papers written by scholars from all corners of the world, on a variety of topics. What started as a modest, rather local project – the first volume contained only two papers by foreign scholars – has grown to earn its own place and significance amongst European journals devoted to English linguistics and literary studies. In order to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the journal we are publishing a bibliography of all the papers – many of them seminal – that appeared in Studia Anglica Posnaniensia between 1968 and 2017. We hope that this list will serve as an inspiration for future submissions, so that we can continue our mission to disseminate knowledge and embrace diversity. Aarst, Flor. 1982.

    This page is reserved for Official Pronouncements by the Chancellor of the A\A\] Persons wishing for information, assistance, further interpretation, etc., are requested to communicate with THE CHANCELLOR OF THE A\A\ c/o THE EQUINOX, 3 Great James Street, W.C. Telephone: CITY 8987, or to call at that address by appointment. A representative will be there to meet them. THE Chancellor of the A\ A\ considers it desirable to make a brief statement of the financial position, as the time has now arrived to make an effort to spread the knowledge to the ends of the earth. The expenses of the propaganda are roughly estimated as follows— Maintenance of Temple, and service . £200 p.a. Publications . £200 p.a. Advertising, electrical expenses, etc. £200 p.a. Maintenance of an Hermitage where poor Brethren may make retirements . £200 p.a. £800 p.a. As in the past, the persons responsible for the movement will give the whole of their time and energy, as well as their worldy wealth, to the service of the A\ A\ Unfortunately, the sums at their disposal do not at present suffice for the contemplated advance, and the Chan- cellor consequently appeals for assistance to those who have found in the instructions of the A\ A\ a sure means to the end they sought. All moneys received will be applied solely for the purpose of aiding those who have not yet entered the circle of the light. ii Owing to the unnecessary strain thrown upon Neophytes by unprepared persons totally ignorant of the groundwork taking the Oath of a Probationer, the Imperator of A\A\, under the seal and by the authority of V.V.V.V.V., ordains that every person wishing to become a Probationer of A\A\ must first pass three months as a Student of the Mysteries.
