The Life of Gray
[1] THOMAS GRAY, the son of Mr. Philip Gray, a scrivener of London, was born in Cornhill, November 26, 1716. His grammatical education he received at Eton under the care of Mr. Antrobus, his mother's brother, then assistant to Dr. George, and when he left school, in 1734, entered a pensioner at Peterhouse in Cambridge. [2] The transition from the school to the college is, to most young scholars, the time from which they date their years of manhood, liberty, and happiness; but Gray seems to have been very little delighted with academical gratifications: he liked at Cambridge neither the mode of life nor the fashion of study, and lived sullenly on to the time when his attendance on lectures was no longer required. As he intended to profess the Common Law he took no degree. [4] He returned to England in September, 1741, and in about two months afterwards buried his father, who had, by an injudicious waste of money upon a new house, so much lessened his fortune that Gray thought himself too poor to study the law. He therefore retired to Cambridge, where he soon after became Bachelor of Civil Law, and where, without liking the place or its inhabitants, or professing to like them, he passed, except a short residence at London, the rest of his life. [5] About this time he was deprived of Mr. West, the son of a chancellor of Ireland, a friend on whom he appears to have set a high value, and who deserved his esteem by the powers which he shews in his letters, and in the

http://www.infopt.demon.co.uk/gray.htm
Thomas Gray
Gray’s second great love was the unfortunate Henry Tuthill, also a friend from school, who became a Fellow of Peterhouse in 1749, but who was dismissed in 1757 because of a homosexual scandal, and who eventually drowned himself as a result of his disgrace. Some of Gray’s correspondence from this period has been selectively destroyed, but what survives (including letters where Tuthill’s name can still be seen behind the erasures of Gray’s first editor and biographer William Mason) suggests that he and his friend Thomas Wharton conspired to suppress public knowledge of these events and particularly Gray’s involvement in the affair, which has never been adequately researched due to scholarly homophobia. The episode cast a permanent pall of melancholy upon Gray’s character.

Thomas Gray recalls feelings of shock when hearing Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat on a Montgomery city bus to a white man. "We just decided this was just the most horrible thing that could happen to people in our neighborhood, although we knew they had been doing this to others," Gray said. It was Thursday, Dec. 1, 1955. Gray, a low-key man, was in the radio and television sales and service business in Montgomery. He and his wife, Juanita, a schoolteacher, were raising a family. But the defiance of Parks, a seamstress and civil rights worker, inspired Thomas Gray and other blacks to mobilize.

Words and Our Lives
By Eli Siegel
We can love each word, because every word is a great poetic success. The word the by itself is poetry. So is the word so. So is give, and bosh. Every word that has come to exist and be used by people is a success. Otherwise, why would it be used? Since all poetry is a matter of words and their relations, it is good to look at some words closely. I take the best-known stanza of Thomas Gray's "Ode on the Pleasure Arising from Vicissitude." What it says in language other than Gray's is: when a person has been sick and gets out of bed, the way he sees things is so pleasant that it is wonderful. See the wretch, that long has tost

Beneath those rugged elms, that yew-tree's shade,
Where heaves the turf in many a mouldering heap,
Each in his narrow cell forever laid,
The rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep. The breezy call of incense-breathing morn, The swallow twittering from the straw-built shed, The cock's shrill clarion, or the echoing horn, No more shall rouse them from their lowly bed. For them no more the blazing hearth shall burn, Or busy housewife ply her evening care; No children run to lisp their sire's return, Or climb his knees the envied kiss to share. Grave Bright-eyed fancy, hovering o'er, Scatters from her pictured urn, Thoughts, that breathe, and words that burn.

Thomas Gray
Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College
Ye distant spires, ye antique towers,
That crown the watery glade,
Where grateful Science still adores
Her Henry's holy shade;
And ye, that from the stately brow
Of Windsor's heights the expanse below
Of grove, of lawn, of mead survey,
Whose turf, whose shade, whose flowers among
Wanders the hoary Thames along
His silver-winding way. Ah, happy hills, ah, pleasing shade,
Ah, fields beloved in vain, Where once my careless childhood strayed, A stranger yet to pain! I feel the gales, that from ye blow, A momentary bliss bestow, As waving fresh their gladsome wing, My weary soul they seem to soothe, And, redolent of joy and youth, To breathe a second spring. Say, Father Thames, for thou hast seen Full many a sprightly race Disporting on thy margent green The paths of pleasure trace, Who foremost now delight to cleave With pliant arm thy glassy wave? The captive linnet which enthrall? What idle progeny succeed To chase the rolling circle's speed, Or urge the flying ball?

GRAY, THOMAS (?-1827). Thomas Gray, one of Stephen F. Austin's qv Old Three Hundred qv settlers, was in the Austin colony as early as August 1823, when he voted in the alcalde qv election at San Felipe de Austin. On August 16, 1824, he and a partner, John H. Moore, qv qv over title to property. In January 1825 Gray indicated his choice of certain leagues on the west side of the Colorado River and was so annoyed by failure to receive them that he asked Austin for a certificate stating that he had no land in the colony. The December 1825 census listed him as a resident of the Colorado District, and the census of March 1826 classified him as a farmer and stock raiser, a widower aged between forty and fifty; at that time his household included three daughters and two servants. In January 1827 he was on a committee to appraise property of Thomas Westfall used in service of the Mexican army. Gray died before June 11, 1827, when John B. Weller, administrator of his estate, offered half a league of his land for sale. Another Austin colony settler named Thomas Gray arrived in Texas from Georgia in May 1830. He was probably the Thomas Gray who, with John W. Hall, Asa Hoxey,q
