Enter FORTINBRAS, the English Ambassadors, and Others. Fort. Where is this sight? Hor. What is it ye would see? If aught of woe or wonder, cease your search. Fort. This quarry cries on havoc.89. - O proud Death, What feast is toward in thine eternal cell, That thou so many princes at a shot So bloodily hast struck? 1 Amb. The sight is dismal; And our affairs from England come too late : The ears are senseless that should give us hearing, That Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead. Where should we have our thanks? Hor. Had it th' ability of life to thank you: Not from his mouth, He never gave commandment for their death. 41 For me, with sorrow I embrace my fortune: 89 To cry on was to exclaim against. — Quarry was the term used for a heap of slaughtered game. 40 It has been already observed that jump and just, or exactly, are synonymous.

Cunning, refers, apparently, to Hamlet's action touching "the packet," and forc'd cause, to the compelling occasion," which moved him to that piece of practice. 42 Rights of memory appears to mean rights founded in prescription or the order of inheritance. 636 HAMLET, PRINCE OF DENMARK. Hor. Of that I shall have also cause to speak, And from his mouth whose voice will draw on more: 43 ACT V Even while men's minds are wild; lest more mischance, Fort. Let four captains Bear Hamlet, like a soldier, to the stage; For he was likely, had he been put on, T' have prov'd most royally: and, for his passage, Speak loudly for him. Take up the bodies. Such a sight as this Becomes the field, but here shows much amiss. [A dead March. [Exeunt, marching; after which a Peal of Ordnance is shot off. 48 Whose vote will induce others to vote the same way.

A MANUAL OF ENGLISH LITERATURE, Histori- This manual presents in a small compass an accurate and interesting view of English literature. It is divided into two sections. The first of these, treating of the history of the subject, gives a complete list of the various English authors and their works, from the earliest times down to the year 1850. CARPENTER'S INTRODUCTION TO ANGLOSAXON. An Introduction to the study of the Anglo-Saxon Language, Comprising an Elementary Grammar, Selections for Reading with Notes, and a Vocabulary. BY STEPHEN H.

Illustrated $1.50 .90 402 1.12 ELEMENTS OF GEOMETRY. By George A. Went- This work is based upon the assumption that Geometry is a branch of practical logic, the object of which is to detect and state clearly and precisely the successive steps from premise to conclusion. ENGLISH OF THE XIV. CENTURY. Illustrated by Notes, Grammatical and Etymological, on Chaucer's Prologue and Knight's ESSENTIALS OF ENGLISH GRAMMAR, for the This work is founded on the author's studies of language in general, and on his experience as an examiner in English grammar for one of the departments of Yale College, and as a teacher of French and German in the same institution. It endeavors to teach the facts of English grammar in such a way as shall lay the best foundation for further and higher study of language in every department. The work begins with the formation of the simple sentence and the distinction of the parts of speech; it next explains the inflection of English words, and the formation of derivative and compound words: the parts of speech are then taken up in order and treated in detail; and chapters of syntax close the work. The added exercises give due opportunity of practice upon the matters taught. FITZ'S TERRESTRIAL GLOBE. Mounted and Operated by an entirely new Method, with a Manual designed to accompany the Globe, the whole forming an easy and practical introduction to the study of Astronomy and Physical Geography. Six-inch Globe. Twelve-inch Globe $ 15.00 30.00 The Globe, as mounted, makes such phenomena as the seasons, the changes in the length of day and night, etc.. etc., at once clear to the apprehension of an ordinary child. For the usual verbal explanations which overtask the untrained imagination, it substitutes material surfaces and lines and real motions, and thus aids the mind of the learner in the highest possible degree in forming correct and lasting impres sions of phenomena which, however interesting, are in the abstract not easily understood. FITZ'S MANUAL. 12mo. 120 pages The Manual which accompanies the above Globe contains every direction for its use, with an explanation of the subjects which it is specially designed to illustrate, such as the changes in the length of day and night, the seasons, twilight, etc. A collection of more than forty problems is also given, with full directions for working them, and numerous practical exercises to be worked out by the learner on the Globe. Questions for examination and miscellaneous exercises are added at the end. HUDSON'S FAMILY SHAKESPEARE: Plays selected and prepared, with Notes and Introductions, for Use in Families.
