To-day is not yesterday: we ourselves change; how can our Works and Thoughts, if they are always to be the fittest, continue always the same? Change, indeed, is painful; yet ever needful; and if Memory have its force and worth, so also has hope.

All things must change

To something new, to something strange. LONGFELLOw-- Kéramos. Line 32.

But the nearer the dawn, the darker the night,

And by going wrong all things come right; Things have been mended that were worse, And the worse, the nearer they are to mend. LONGFELLOW-The Baron of St. Castine. Line 264.

Weary the cloud falleth out of the sky,

Dreary the leaf lieth low.

All things must come to the earth by and by, Out of which all things grow.

This world

Is full of change, change, change,--nothing but change!

w. D. M. MULOCK--Immutable.

My merry, merry, merry roundelay
Concludes with Cupid's curse:
They that do change old love for new,
Pray gods, they change for worse!
x. GEORGE PEELE--Cupid's Curse;

From the Arraignment of Paris.

All things that we ordained festival,
Turn from their office to black funeral:
Our instruments, to melancholy bells:
Our wedding cheer, to a sad burial feast;
Our solemn hymns to sullen dirges change;
Our bridal flowers serve for a buried corse,
And all things change them to the contrary.
h. Romeo and Juliet. Act IV. Sc. 5.

Full fathom five thy father lies;
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes:
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange.
i. Tempest. Act I.

Sc. 2.

The love of wicked friends converts to fear;
That fear, to hate; and hate turns one or both,
To worthy danger, and deserved death.
m. Richard 11. Act V. Sc. 1.

This is the state of man; To-day he puts forth

The tender leaves of hope, to-morrow blossoms,

And bears his blushing honours thick upon him.

n. Henry VIII. Act III. Sc. 2. This world is not for aye; nor 'tis not strange, That even our loves should with our fortunes change.

0. Hamlet. Act III. Sc. 2.

Thou hast describ'd A hot friend cooling: Ever note, Lucilius, When love begins to sicken and decay, It useth an enforced ceremony.

From foul to fair, from better hap to worse.

His honour rooted in dishonour stood,
And faith unfaithful kept him falsely true.

Children we of smiles and sighs-
Much we know but more we dream.

MILTON--Paradise Lost. Bk. VIII.
Line 502.

He that has light within his own clear breast,
May sit i' th' centre, and enjoy bright day:
But he that hides a dark soul, and foul
thoughts,

Benighted walks under the mid-day sun;
Himself is his own dungeon.

u. MILTON-Comus. Line 381.

Where an equal poise of hope and fear
Does arbitrate the event, my nature is
That I incline to hope rather than fear,
And gladly banish squint suspicion.

V. MILTON- Comus. Line 410. To those who know thee not, no words can paint!

And those who know thee, know all words are faint!
