=Hand.=

Let my hand-- This hand, lie in your own--my own true friend! Hand in hand with you. 865 ROBERT BROWNING: _Paracelsus,_ Sc. 5.

'T was a hand White, delicate, dimpled, warm, languid, and bland. The hand of a woman is often, in youth, Somewhat rough, somewhat red, somewhat graceless in truth; Does its beauty refine, as its pulses grow calm, Or as Sorrow has, crossed the life-line in the palm? 866 OWEN MEREDITH: _Lucile,_ Pt. i., Canto iii., St. 13.

And there is even a happiness That makes the heart afraid. 867 HOOD: _Ode to Melancholy._

Happiness depends, as Nature shows, Less on exterior things than most suppose. 868 COWPER: _Table Talk,_ Line 246.

O happiness! our being's end and aim! Good, pleasure, ease, content! whate'er thy name: That something still which prompts the eternal sigh, For which we bear to live, or dare to die. 869 POPE: _Essay on Man,_ Epis. iv., Line 1.

=Harp.=

The harp that once through Tara's halls The soul of music shed, Now hangs as mute on Tara's walls As if that soul were fled. 872 MOORE: _The Harp That Once Through Tara's Halls._

=Haste.=

Farewell; and let your haste commend your duty. 873 SHAKS.: _Hamlet,_ Act i., Sc. 2.

Never can true reconcilement grow Where wounds of deadly hate have pierc'd so deep. 877 MILTON: _Par. Lost,_ Bk. iv., Line 98.

There was a laughing devil in his sneer, That rais'd emotions both of rage and fear; And where his frown of hatred darkly fell, Hope withering fled, and Mercy sigh'd farewell! 878 BYRON: _Corsair,_ Canto i., St. 9.

He who surpasses or subdues mankind Must look down on the hate of those below. 879 BYRON: _Ch. Harold,_ Canto iii., St. 45.

Nor love, nor honor, wealth, nor power, Can give the heart a cheerful hour When health is lost. Be timely wise; With health all taste of pleasure flies. 883 GAY: _Fables,_ Pt. i., Fable 31.

Better to hunt in fields for health unbought Than fee the doctor for a nauseous draught. 884 DRYDEN: _Epis. to John Dryden of Chesterton,_ Line 92.

=Heart.=

A merry heart goes all the day, Your sad tires in a mile-a. 885 SHAKS.: _Wint. Tale,_ Act iv., Sc. 2.

With every pleasing, every prudent part, Say, what can Chloe want? She wants a heart. 886 POPE: _Moral Essays,_ Epis. ii., Line 159.

Or from Browning some "Pomegranate," which if cut deep down the middle, Shows a heart within blood-tinctured, of a veined humanity. 887 MRS. BROWNING: _Lady Geraldine's Courtship,_ xli.

=Hell.=

'Tis now the very witching time of night, When churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out Contagion to this world. 894 SHAKS.: _Hamlet,_ Act iii., Sc. 2.

A dungeon horrible, on all sides round, As one great furnace flamed; yet from those flames No light; but rather darkness visible Serv'd only to discover sights of woe, Regions of sorrow, doleful shades, where peace And rest can never dwell, hope never comes That comes to all, but torture without end. 895 MILTON: _Par. Lost,_ Bk. i., Line 61.

Hell Grew darker at their frown. 896 MILTON: _Par. Lost,_ Bk. ii., Line 719.

To rest, the cushion and soft dean invite, Who never mentions hell to ears polite. 897 POPE: _Moral Essays,_ Epis. iv., Line 149.

In hope to merit heaven by making earth a hell. 898 BYRON: _Ch. Harold,_ Canto i., St. 20.

Hell is a city much like London-- A populous and a smoky city; There are all sorts of people undone, And there is little or no fun done; Small justice shown, and still less pity. 899 SHELLEY: _Peter Bell the Third,_ Pt. iii.

Whoe'er excels in what we prize, Appears a hero in our eyes. 903 SWIFT: _Cadenus and Vanessa,_ Line 729.

=History.=

History, with all her volumes vast, Hath but one page. 908 BYRON: _Ch. Harold,_ Canto iv.; St. 108.

=Holiday.=

If all the year were playing holidays, To sport would be as tedious as to work; But when they seldom come, they wished-for come, And nothing pleaseth but rare accidents. 909 SHAKS.: _1 Henry IV.,_ Act i., Sc. 2.

There were his young barbarians all at play; There was their Dacian mother: he, their sire, Butcher'd to make a Roman holiday! 910 BYRON: _Ch. Harold,_ Canto iv., St. 141.

Home is the resort Of love, of joy, of peace and plenty, where, Supporting and supported, polish'd friends And dear relations mingle into bliss. 913 THOMSON: _Seasons, Autumn,_ Line 65.

This fond attachment to the well-known place Whence first we started into life's long race, Maintains its hold with such unfailing sway, We feel it e'en in age, and at our latest day. 914 COWPER: _Tirocinium,_ Line 314.

This be the verse you grave for me: Here he lies where he longed to be; Home is the sailor, home from sea, And the hunter home from the hill. 915 ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON: _Requiem._

'Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam, Be it ever so humble, there 's no place like home. 916 J. HOWARD PAYNE: _Home, Sweet Home._

Type of the wise who soar but never roam, True to the kindred points of heaven and home. 917 WORDSWORTH: _To a Skylark._

Read Homer once, and you can read no more, For all books else appear so mean, so poor; Verse may seem prose; but still persist to read, And Homer will be all the books you need. 918 SHEFFIELD, DUKE OF BUCKINGHAMSHIRE: _Essay on Poetry_

Oft of one wide expanse had I been told That deep-brow'd Homer ruled as his demesne, Yet did I never breathe its pure serene Till I heard Chapman speak out loud and bold. 919 KEATS: _On first looking into Chapman's Homer._

Honor travels in a strait so narrow, Where one but goes abreast: keep then the path. 924 SHAKS.: _Troil, and Cress.,_ Act iii., Sc. 3.

Honor's a fine imaginary notion, That draws in raw and unexperienced men To real mischiefs, while they hunt a shadow. 925 ADDISON: _Cato,_ Act ii., Sc. 5.

Honor and shame from no condition rise; Act well your part, there all the honor lies. 926 POPE: _Essay on Man,_ Epis. iv., Line 193.

His honor rooted in dishonor stood, And faith unfaithful kept him falsely true. 927 TENNYSON: _Idyls, Elaine,_ Line 884.

=Husband.=

As the husband is, the wife is; thou art mated with a clown, And the grossness of his nature will have weight to drag thee down. 953 TENNYSON: _Locksley Hall,_ St. 24.

=Impossibility.=

And what's impossible can't be, And never, never comes to pass. 971 COLMAN, JR.: _Maid of the Moor._

=Instinct.=

Then vainly the philosopher avers That reason guides our deeds, and instinct theirs. How can we justly different causes frame, When the effects entirely are the same? Instinct and reason how can we divide? 'Tis the fool's ignorance, and the pedant's pride. 990 PRIOR: _Solomon on the V-of the World,_ Bk. i., Line 231.

=Invention.=

Th' invention all admir'd, and each how he To be th' inventor miss'd; so easy it seem'd, Once found, which yet unfound most would have thought Impossible! 991 MILTON: _Par. Lost,_ Bk. vi., Line 498.

Italy, my Italy! Queen Mary's saying serves for me (When fortune's malice Lost her Calais): "Open my heart, and you will see Graved inside of it 'Italy.'" 996 ROBERT BROWNING: _De Gustibus,_ ii.

=Ivy.=

Oh, a dainty plant is the ivy green, That creepeth o'er ruins old! Of right choice food are his meals, I ween, In his cell so lone and cold. Creeping where no life is seen, A rare old plant is the ivy green. 997 DICKENS: _Pickwick Papers,_ Ch. 6.

=Joy.=

Capacity for joy Admits temptation. 1006 MRS. BROWNING: _Aurora Leigh,_ Bk. i., Line 703.

Joy is the mainspring in the whole Of endless Nature's calm rotation. Joy moves the dazzling wheels that roll In the great Time-piece of Creation. 1007 SCHILLER: _Hymn to Joy_
