Brief Lives INTRODUCTION I. ORIGIN OF THE 'LIVES.' AUBREY sought and obtained an introduction to Anthony Wood in August 1667. He was keenly interested in antiquarian studies, and had the warmest love for Oxford ; he had been a contemporary in Trinity College with Wood's brother, Edward ; and so was drawn to Wood on hearing that he was busy with researches into the History of the University of Oxford. Aubrey was one of those eminently good-natured men, who are very slothful in their own affairs, but spare no pains to work for a friend. He offered his help to Wood ; and, when it was decided to include in Wood's book short notices of writers connected with Oxford, that help proved most valuable. Aubrey, through his family and familyconnexions, and by reason of his restless goings-to-andfro, had a wide circle of acquaintance among squires and parsons, lawyers and doctors, merchants and politicians, men of letters and persons of quality, both in town and country. He had been, until his estate was squandered, an extensive and curious buyer of books and MSS. And above all, being a good gossip, he had used to the utmost those opportunities of inquiry about men and things which had been afforded him by societies grave, like the Royal Society, and frivolous, as coffee-house gatherings and tavern clubs. The scanty excerpts, given in these volumes, from letters written by him between 1668 and 1673, supply a hint of how deeply Wood's Historia et Antiquitates Universitatis Oxoniensis, published in 1674, was indebted to the multifarious memory and unwearying inquiries of the enthusiastic Aubrey. Dean Fell's request that Wood should notice Oxford writers and bishops in his Historia had suggested to Wood the plan of, and set him to work upon, the larger and happier scheme of the Athenae Oxonienses, an 'exact history of all the writers and bishops that have had their education in ... Oxford' since 1500. He engaged his friend Aubrey to help him in his undertaking, by committing to writing in a more systematic way, for Wood's benefit, his multitudinous recollections of men and books. He was dexterous enough to supply the additional motive, that, after serving his friend's turn, Aubrey's collections might be gathered together, preserved for a while in some safe and secret place, and, ~ ~

Theseus - (INTRODUCTION) -- As geographers - (I/one) --, Sosius - (ORIGIN OF <THE> 'LIVES.') --, crowd into <the> edges of their maps parts of <the> world which they do not know about - (AUBREY sought and obtained <an> introduction to Anthony Wood in August 1667.) --, adding notes in <the> margin to <the> effect - (He was keenly interested in antiquarian studies,) --, that beyond this lies nothing but sandy deserts full of wild beasts - (and had <the> warmest love for Oxford ;) --, unapproachable bogs - (he had been <a> contemporary in Trinity College with Wood's brother,) --, Scythian ice - (Edward ;) --, or <a> frozen sea - (and so was drawn to Wood on hearing that he was busy with researches into <the> History of <the> University of Oxford.) --, so - (Aubrey was one of those eminently good-natured men,) --, in this work of mine - (who are very slothful in their own affairs,) --, in which I have compared <the> lives of <the> greatest men with one another - (but spare no pains to work for <a> friend.) --, after passing through those periods which probable reasoning can reach to and real history find <a> footing in - (He offered his help to Wood ;) --, I might very well say of those that are farther off - (and,) --, Beyond this there is nothing but prodigies and fictions - (when it was decided to include in Wood's book short notices of writers connected with Oxford) --, <the> only inhabitants are <the> poets and inventors of fables - (that help proved most valuable) --; there is no credit - (Aubrey) --, or certainty any farther - (through his family and family connexions) --. Yet - (and by reason of his restless goings-to-and fro) --, after publishing <an> account of Lycurgus <the> lawgiver and Numa <the> king - (had <a> wide circle of acquaintance among squires and parsons) --, I thought I might - (lawyers and doctors) --, not without reason - (merchants and politicians) --, ascend as high as to Romulus - (men of letters and persons of quality) --, being brought by my history so near to his time - (both in town and country) --.
Considering therefore with myself
Whom shall I set so great <a> man to face - (He had been) --? Or whom oppose - (until his estate was squandered) --? who’s equal to <the> place - (<an> extensive and curious buyer of books and MSS.) --?
(as Aeschylus expresses it) - (And above all) --, I found none so fit as him that peopled <the> beautiful and far-famed city of Athens - (being <a> good gossip) --, to be set in opposition with <the> father of <the> invincible and renowned city of Rome - (he had used to <the> utmost those opportunities of inquiry about men and things which had been afforded him by societies grave,) --. Let us hope that Fable may - (like <the> Royal Society,) --, in what shall follow - (and frivolous,) --, so submit to <the> purifying processes of Reason as to take <the> character of exact history - (as coffee-house gatherings and tavern clubs.) --. In any case - (<The> scanty excerpts,) --, however - (given in these volumes,) --, where it shall be found contumaciously slighting credibility - (from letters written by him between 1668 and 1673,) --, and refusing to be reduced to anything like probable fact - (supply <a> hint of how deeply Wood's Historia et Antiquitates Universitatis Oxoniensis,) --, we shall beg that we may meet with candid readers - (published in 1674,) --, and such as will receive with indulgence <the> stories of antiquity - (was indebted to <the> multifarious memory and unwearying inquiries of <the> enthusiastic Aubrey.) --.
Theseus seemed to me to resemble Romulus in many particulars - (Dean Fell's request that Wood should notice Oxford writers and bishops in his Historia had suggested to Wood <the> plan of,) --. Both of them - (and set him to work upon,) --, born out of wedlock and of uncertain parentage - (<the> larger and happier scheme of <the> Athenae Oxonienses,) --, had <the> repute of being sprung from <the> gods - (<an> 'exact history of all <the> writers and bishops that have had their education in ...) --.
Both warriors - (Oxford') --; that by all <the> world’s allowed - (since 1500) --.
Both of them united with strength of body <an> equal vigor mind - (He engaged his friend Aubrey to help him in his undertaking,) --; and of <the> two most famous cities of <the> world <the> one built Rome - (by committing to writing in <a> more systematic way,) --, and <the> other made Athens be inhabited - (for Wood's benefit,) --. Both stand charged with <the> rape of women - (his multitudinous recollections of men and books.) --; neither of them could avoid domestic misfortunes nor jealousy at home - (He was dexterous enough to supply <the> additional motive,) --; but towards <the> close of their lives are both of them said to have incurred great odium with their countrymen - (that,) --, if - (after serving his friend's turn,) --, that is - (Aubrey's collections might be gathered together,) --, we may take <the> stories least like poetry as our guide to <the> truth - (preserved for <a> while in some safe and secret place,) --. ~ ~

MISCELLANIES
DAY FATALITY OR, SOME OBSERVATIONS OF DAYS LUCKY AND UNLUCKY
LUC. xix. 43. "In hoc die tuo": In this thy day.
That there be good and evil times, not only the sacred scriptures, but prophane authors mention: see 1 Sam. 25, 8. Esther 8, 17. and 9, 19, 22. Ecclus. 14. 14.
The fourteenth day of the first month was a memorable and blessed day amongst the children of Israel: see Exod. 12, 18, 40, 41, 42, 51. Levit. 23, 5. Numb. 28, 16. Four hundred and thirty years being expired of their dwelling in Egypt, even in the self same day departed they thence.
A thing something parallel to this we read in the Roman histories: that, that very day four years, that the civil wars were begun by Pompey the father, Caesar made an end of them with his sons; Cneius Pompeius being then slain, and it being also the last battle Cæsar was ever in. (Heylin in the kingdom of Corduba.) The calendar to Ovid's Fastorum, says, "Aprilis erat mensis Grcecis auspicatisimus", a most auspicious month among the Graecians.
As to evil days and times; see Amos 5, 13. and 6, 3. ~ ~

CHAPTER I. AIR.
BEFORE I enter upon the discourse of the AIR of this countie, it would not be amiss that I gave an account of the winds that most commonly blow in the western parts of England.
I shall first allege the testimony of Julius Cæsar, who delivers to us thus: "Corns ventus, qui magnam partem omnis temporis in his locis flare consuevit". - (Commentaries, lib. v.) To which I will subjoine this of Mr. Th. Ax, of Somersetshire, who hath made dayly observations of the weather for these twenty-five years past, since 1661, and finds that, one yeare with another, the westerly winds, which doe come from the Atlantick sea, doe blowe ten moneths of the twelve. Besides, he hath made observations for thirty years, that the mannours in the easterne parts of the netherlands of Somersetshire doe yield six or eight per centum of their value; whereas those in the westerne parts doe yield but three, seldome four per centum, and in some mannours but two per centum. Hence he argues that the winds carrying these unwholesome vapours of the low country from one to the other, doe make the one more, the other less, healthy. ___________________________________
This shire may be divided as it were into three stories or stages. Chippenham vale is the lowest. The first elevation, or next storie, is from the Derry Hill, or Bowdon Lodge, to the hill beyond the Devises, called Red-hone, which is the limbe or beginning of Salisbury plaines. From the top of this hill one may discerne Our Lady Church Steeple at Sarum, like a fine Spanish needle. I would have the height of these hills, as also Hackpen, and those toward Lambourn, which are the highest, to he taken with the quicksilver barometer, according to the method of Mr. Edmund Halley in Philosophical Transactions, No. 181. ___________________________________
Now, although Mindip-hills and Whitesheet, &c., are as a barr and skreen to keep off from Wiltshire the westerly winds and raines, as they doe in some measure repel those noxious vapours, yet wee have a flavour of them; and when autumnal agues raigne, they are more common on the hills than in the vales of this country.

By Denton J. Snider, Denton Jaques Snider I. The Goddess Pallas has already come down to Ithaca and stands among the suitors. She has taken the form of Mentes, the King of a neighboring tribe; she is in disguise as she usually is when she appears on earth. Who will recognize her? Not the suitors; they can see no God in their condition, least of all, the Goddess of Wisdom. "Telemachus was much the first to observe her;" why just he? The fact is he was ready to see her, and not only to see her, but to hear what she had to say. "For he sat among the suitors grieved in heart, seeing his father in his mind's eye," like Hamlet just before the latter saw the ghost. So careful is the poet to prepare both sides--the divine epiphany, and the mortal who is to behold it. ~ ~
