AFTER DEATH
By SIR EDWIN ARNOLD ( 1832 - 1904 )
He who died at Azan sends
This to comfort all his friends.
FAITHFUL friends! It lies, I know,
Pale and white and cold as snow;
And ye say, "Abdallah's dead!"
Weeping at the feet and head.
I can see your falling tears,
I can hear your sighs and prayers;
Yet I smile, and whisper this
I am not the thing you kiss:
Cease your tears and let it lie; It was mine, it is not 'I.' " Sweet friends! what the women lave For its last bed of the grave Is a hut which I am quitting, Is a garment no more fitting, Is a cage, from which at last, Like a hawk, my soul hath passed; Love the inmate, not the room; The weaver, not the garb; the plume Of the falcon, not the bars Which kept him from the splendid stars! Loving friends! be wise, and dry Straightway every weeping eye: What ye lift upon the bier Is not worth a wistful tear. 'Tis an empty seashellone Out of which the pearl has gone: The shell is broken - it lies there;

Ethics Euthanasia Printable version of this page Active and Passive Euthanasia Active euthanasia Active euthanasia occurs when the medical professionals, or another person, deliberately do something that causes the patient to die. Passive Euthanasia Passive euthanasia occurs when the patient dies because the medical professionals either don't do something necessary to keep the patient alive, or when they stop doing something that is keeping the patient alive.

The moral difference between killing and letting die Many people make a moral distinction between active and passive euthanasia. They think that it is acceptable to withhold treatment and allow a patient to die, but that it is never acceptable to kill a patient by a deliberate act. Some medical people like this idea. They think it allows them to provide a patient with the death they want without having to deal with the difficult moral problems they would face if they deliberately killed that person.

Arthur Hugh Clough (1819-1861) probably would have fit in quite nicely in the 1960s, angry as he was about financial inequality, and being English, angry about the idiocy of the class system as well. Since he was active as a poet more than 100 years earlier, however, he focused on the equivalent issues of his time—exploitation of the farming and factory masses— and that era’s palliative to these problems: morally uplifting shame-shame prattle. His best poem, "Say Not The Struggle," should be required reading in every high school football locker room at half-time when the losing team, behind by 24 points, is staring down at puddles of disinfectant-diluted sweat and wishing to God they didn’t have to go out for a second half. It’s that good. This poem, The Latest Decalogue, ain’t bad either.

Synopsis Text Crib ... Home
Synopsis (by C.H. Moore): "To the spring Bandusia. These exquisite verses may have been occasioned by the festival of springs, the Fontanalia , which fell on October 13; but the situation of the spring thus immortalized if indeed it ever existed outside of Horace's fancy is totally unknown. A document of 1103 A.D. mentions a fons Bandusinus near Venusia, but it is very probable that this is an identification of the Middle Ages rather than an ancient name. Bandusia seems to be a corruption of Pandosia, and may have been given by Horace to the large spring on his Sabine farm, fons etiam riuo dare nomen idoneus , Epist. 1,16,12. We need be little concerned with the situation, though, for the verses are sufficient in themselves." Text Crib O fons Bandusiae, splendidior uitro,
dulci digne mero non sine floribus,
cras donaberis haedo,
cui frons turgida cornibus O Bandusian spring, clearer than glass,
worthy of sweet wine and flowers too,

Metre (in US, meter)
The naming of feet Table of feet The naming of metres Common metrical patterns in English poetry ... Feet of clay?
Introduction
The metre is the rhythm of a poem. Repeating patterns in the metre are an important element - some would say the main element - in the structure of poetry. (Another important element is repeating patterns in the sound i.e. rhyme Traditionally, the metrical structure of the poem is analysed in terms of feet . A foot is a small number of consecutive syllables - normally two or three, sometimes four or more. Within the foot, syllables are characterised as stressed or unstressed (or in some contexts short/long, high/low pitch, etc). The foot is then classified according to the pattern of stresses within it, and given a name such as dactyl or iamb
The Naming of Feet
This table of metric feet lists all possible feet of two, three or four syllables. The highlighted entries are the only ones you are likely to need to know about, in practice - the iamb trochee spondee anapaest (anapest) and dactyl . You can safely treat the rest of the table as a source of obscure words with which to astonish your friends. Academics are liable to argue tirelessly about whether there really is such a thing as a pyrrhic foot, or whether a particular 5-syllable pattern is best regarded as an amphibrach followed by a trochee, or as an iamb followed by an amphibrach. Such issues need not concern us.

Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor preaches before the Queen
On 13 January 2002 the Archbishop of Westminster, Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor, spoke at matins at the Church of St Mary Magdalene on Queen Elizabeth II's Sandringham estate in Norfolk. It was the first time since 1688 that an English monarch had invited a member of the Catholic hierarchy in England and Wales to preach at a service (See The Tablet, 19 January). This is the text of his sermon.
First of all, I wish to express my very grateful thanks for the invitation to preach to you today. When I am asked to preach I normally choose as a theme something that arises from one of the readings. The second reading that has been given to me is that extraordinary episode at the beginning of the public life of Jesus, namely the Marriage Feast at Cana (John 2:1-11). It is an interesting point that the principal guest on this occasion was not Jesus Himself but His Mother, and the Gospel says that Jesus was also there as well as His apostles (cf.vv.1-2). I have a feeling that the apostles were kind of gatecrashers for this simple village wedding which may have been the reason why the wine ran out fairly early! I want to speak to you today about a few insights of the Mother of Jesus which encompass something very fundamental in Christian life. It does not matter whether you are Anglican, Roman Catholic, Orthodox or Free Church, there are two attitudes of Mary that unite all Christians.
