20An Essay on ManAlexander Pope (1733)
- Let power or knowledge, gold or glory, please,
- Or (oft more strong than all) the love of ease
- Through life it is followed, even at lifes
expense - The merchants toil, the sages indolence,
- The monks humility, the heros pride,
- All, all alike find Reason on their side
21Excerpt from The Tables Turned William
Wordsworth
- She has a world of ready wealth,
- Our minds and hearts to bless---
- Spontaneous wisdom breathed by health,
- Truth breathed by cheerfulness.
- Enough of Science and of Art
- Close up those barren leaves
- Come forth, and bring with you a heart
- That watches and receives
- Up! Up! my Friend, and quit your books
- Or surely youll grow double
- Up! Up! My Friend, and clear your looks
- Why all this toil and trouble?
- Book! tis a dull and endless strife
- Come, hear the woodland linnet,
- How sweet his music! On my life,
- Theres more of wisdom in it.
- And hark! How blithe the throstle sings!
- He, too, is no mean preacher
- Come forth into the light of things,
- Let nature be your teacher.
22Excerpt from GerminalEmile Zola
- The four colliers had spread themselves out,
one above the other, to cover the whole
coal-face. Each one occupied about four metres
of the seam, and there were hooked planks between
them to catch the coal as it fell. The seam was
so thin, hardly more than fifty centimetres
through at this point, that they were flattened
between roof and wall, dragging themselves along
by their knees and elbows, unable to turn without
grazing their shoulders. In order to get at the
coal, they had to lie on one side with twisted
neck, arms above their heads, and wield their
short-handled picks slantways. - Zacharie was at the bottom, with Levaque and
Chaval above him and Maheu at the top. Each cut
in the bed of shale with is pick, then made two
vertical slots in the coal and finally drove an
iron wedge in at the top, thus loosening a block.
The coal was soft, and in its fall the block
broke up and rolled in pieces all over the mens
stomachs and thighs. When these pieces, stopped
by the planks, had collected beneath them, the
men disappeared, immured in the narrow cleft. -
